    Actually, once it’s healed it should look really nice. Depending on which portions of the skin stretch more than the others, the honeycomb will end up having an organic, bumpy feel to it.
    My husband got honeycomb scarring down his arm, chest, and shoulder around his hornet tattoos. It takes a long time for them to heal to the point they stop hurting (up to a year), but he had his work done almost two years ago.
