So I get asked to do a tattoo blog ALOT, and while I don’t see myself as tattooed enough to warrant one – all of y’all do, so here we go.
Tumblr media
My first tattoo, the one considered to be the ‘gateway’ tattoo.
My first tattoo! I drew myself, mistakes and all when I was 17, and my best friend Hannah treated me to it on my 18th birthday and she got the same tattooed on her other arm. Best friends 5eva. So no underage tattoos here guys! Not for lack of trying…>:)
Now, if I HAD got tattooed underage, I can honestly say I would have been lumped with a monstrosity for life – I drew up my own design of a trad style anchor, with two swallows either side – doesn’t sound that bad right? Well I wanted it in traditional garish colours, and no where other than my lower abdomen. Let’s just say thank fuck for tattoo artists who check ID and don’t just ‘take my word for it, my mum said I’m allowed one and I’m deffo 18.’
I had the tattoo bug from a very early age, didn’t help that we were regulars at festivals like The Bulldog Bash – a motorbike, music and booze festival run by the Hells Angels,  which happened to be a stones throw from our front door. My other best pal Naomi, got her first tattoo there, underage ! And it was me who got called the bad influence!!
Anyway, I fucking love art, so much so I wanna be the art. Is that so strange?
My next tattoo was on a whim, with an old friend of mine in London, we filled up on chocolate vodka, decided to get ‘matching’ hand tattoos and she ended up with an ace of spades, while I ended up with a tiny anchor that has since spread so much it needs explaining every time I show it. Scratcher tattoos, for the win!
Tumblr media
On my right hand, a tiny anchor tattoo sits on my finger! Yes, that is an anchor.
  My third tattoo, and my first proper learning curve, was that some tattoo artists don’t just ‘know’ what you want! I was besotted with Valerie Vargas style tattoos at this point, having just discovered her work in several tattoo mags, and so when Ryan and I booked a day session I showed the guy a picture I liked and said ‘I want something like that, please.’
19 years old, and shy AF, he showed me a stencil briefly and slapped it on my upper arm, I have a mole on that arm (about where your TB jab might be) and he’d positioned the design – that I’d hardly seen – so the lady’s face had a huge mole on it!
I asked if he could move it, and he scrubbed my arm roughly and moved the stencil. By now I’d seen the design and it wasn’t what I wanted. Feeling too rude to say so and ask for a new one to be drawn up, I sat through an hour or so knowing I hated my tattoo.
Here’s the lesson I have since learnt…
TATTOOS DON’T FUCKING COME OFF! 
They are on you FOR LIFE.
That is what you are paying for. A permanent mark. A permanent design that you will look at – FOREVER. If you don’t like it – speak up ! A tattoo artist doesn’t want you to be unhappy! They want you to love your art, on paper, and on skin. It’s their job, and generally – their passion too. Communicate! Be specific, your artist will want to work with you to get an end product you are happy with living with, and they are happy scarring you with.
So yeah, here she is, and she’s remained untouched since that fateful day. Sorry hun.
A few centuries later, had a spell of homelessness, living on the dole and finally getting our acts together and adding to the clan – Lily was born. And upon her ejection, it was time for another tattoo.
I got my second and third finger tatts on Ryan and I’s anniversary, so as an ode to my two loves of my life, I opted for a heart for Ryan (hint hint, I would like a ring) and an L for…Loopy Lily the First. This is one of those photos that at the time I thought was beautiful and now she is grown look back on and think ..urgh Potato Child.
Sorry babe, you are beautiful now.
On maternity leave and with money and time to kill, the arm began to fill up. This was done at Dust n Bones Tattoo in Plymouth, by lovely Robin!
Brightened up the peg something chronic!
Then! Fate struck, and two ‘brummies’ immigrated to Looe one fine day in 2017, (infact, TODAY! Two years ago!)   Ryan noticed a shop being refit whilst on a job, and Lo! The Vault in Looe came into our lives, bringing with it two of the best people ON THE PLANET. Melanie Allen (then Bates!) and Cat Allen. We even made them a song. But let’s not go off on that tangent.
Ironically, most of our friends in Cornwall are not Cornish natives, not sure if that says more about Cornwall being The Place To Be, or if it means Cornish folks are…weird AF.
Anyway! Ryan went in, introduced himself (and me, although I was none the wiser a friendship egg was being laid.) And booked himself in for a hand tatt. Long story short – we go there for all our tattoos now, I recommend them to everyone I know – even Aussies, y’never know when one may be visitin’. And frankly, if anyone else were to touch me with a needle I’d feel like I was cheating.
In 2018, Mel and Cat invited us to be part of their wedding, and we were blessed with being a part of their happiest ever day – what an honour!
The hand tattoo that started it all, and our place settings at M & C’s wedding!
And so, here are several tattoos laid upon me by the one and only Catherine Rope Head Allen.
Crystal Ball, the runes mean success, luck all that kinda shit.
Friday 13th tattoo, lucky ol’ 13! Ryan got one too, and he tattooed one on Cat!
A birthday tattoo, and yes I drank tea as it was stabbed into me!
My finger tattoos, and not to sound like a pussy but these are up there with most painful tattoo! I love Cat but when she tattoos me sometimes I’d like to punch her.
Tumblr media
One for the Foot Fetishers
Oh, my most recent tattoo is the swallow on my foot, and I nearly forgot to mention my own mishaps – tattooing ‘Love Hate’ on my toes on Christmas day, probably not my greatest idea, but it was funny at the time. And what’s life for, if not for laughing.
Tumblr media
Another ‘home job’ a sugar skull on my thigh. Hurt like fuck and Ryan did a line too. A blurry photo honestly does it justice.
  The rest of my arm, a crescent moon which was done by Robin at Dust N Bones, which i got ‘cus I liked it. (Life aint always deep and meaningful!) and then following a few successes with my blog and writing in general I got a writing hand, with the word ‘Mother’. This was my own design and tattooed by the wonderful Cat! It actually covers over some scars which was pretty poignant – like making an ugly reminder of a hard time into something that I am proud of and truly self-made. I’ve done well since that period of life, and now whenever I see my arm I am reminded of it.
Tumblr media
Lucky Horseshoe – Freshly done! This tattoo was a nod to my first love Amy (RIP), Also Ryan tells me I am supernaturally lucky (that’s true!) and he recently got a tattoo that said ‘Fuck Luck’. So its an ode to being a ying/yang. He’s unlucky, but I’ve got enough luck for the both of us.
Tumblr media
Excuse the shite photo, but have you ever tried to take a photo of the bottom of your arm?! This piece was just a gap filler I decided on, on the day. Super bright and colourful dagger and rose.
So… I THINK that is it! Theres another anchor on my ankle, stabbed into me, by me. It’s not too bad actually! I’ve got another tattoo booked this weekend – so we will have to wait and see what that is!! I’m sure I’ll document it all on Instagram…so be sure to check that out! ( @Rocknrollmother_)
I’ve popped a link in above to The Vault’s Facebook if you wanna have a nosy at Cats most brilliant work – I am not the greatest advert for her amazing talent. Their Instagram is here.
Tumblr media
That said! A few of you asked for more tattoo blogs, so there will be more to come! Watch this space for a walk through of Ryan’s tattoos! (Wayyyy more interesting than mine) And tattoo etiquette – a guide to getting your first, third or the rest of your tattoos! Etc. If there’s anything you’d like to read, drop a comment or message on my social media.
Thankyou for reading, I hope you enjoyed it (:

soulmate!chanyeol
a/n: happy birthday to @your-safety-pin !! (i tried to get this to post exactly midnight your timezone but i think i’m a bit late haha) youre one of the sweetest people i've ever met and I know chanyeol would fall in love with your if he ever met you ^^ this is too short and does no justice but i hope you’ll enjoy it anyway!
Tumblr media
okay so in this soulmate au
it's the one where you have matching tattoosand some are on wrists and other are on hips or ankles
the important thing is that they all usually match
through time this has gotten more difficult bc some tattoos match up as pairs (two puppies, two apples, two clouds) while other match up as things that just go together (sun and moon, rose and dagger, anchor and rope)
so sometimes it's rlly hard to figure out who is your soulmate
you have a moon on your right hip just above where the waistband of your jeans would be
so anyway on your last birthday your friend bought you dance lessons, bc dancing is something you've always wanted to learn it's been nearly a year now and you're pretty good at choreography and coming up with stuff on your own
your teacher informs you that she wants you to help out one of her students, who is a great dancer, he just has a hard time loosening upyou agree bc you don't have anything better to do and you think it might also be fun
but you aren't expecting an extremely tall and handsome man to walk in, his puppy dog eyes and elf-like ears making you almost instantly fall for him
when the two of you make eye contact, something in the air crackles for a moment, like fire wanting to be released from its confidements, and you wonder if he feels it as wellhe doesn't seem to, due to his easygoing smile and the way he reaches to grab your hand, "hi, i'm chanyeol."
"y/n," you reply, your cheeks warm from the feeling of his palm against yours
and the two of you click almost instantly once you start dancing it's as if the two of you had been friends for ages
and chanyeol has this bright energy that really can't be matched but you try oh so hard to keep up with him anyway
every day you practice w him you feel warm tingles across your skin when he accidentally bumps into you, or holds your hand, or when you grab his waist to change his position
but as far as you can tell he doesn't feel anythingyou can't see through his pov thoyou don't know that your touch drives him absolutely insane and the way you smile at him can keep him up for days trying to decipher it
he adores your hardworking personality and they way you patiently help him learn his moves
he is absolutely mesmerized by your kind eyes and even kinder spirit
but you aren't his soulmate :(
chanyeol knows this bc he's already found his soulmate, a girl with a sun on her wrist, similar to the sun on his hip
they are different art styles, but they match
chanyeol has been dating her for over a year now and some days he wonders if being with his soulmate is supposed to feel it does with her... disappointing and filled with useless fighting,,, but those kinds of thoughts make him hate himself
they make him feel like a bad soulmatehaving a teensy crush on his dance tutor makes him feeling like a horrible soulmate
so he keeps his feelings for you locked up bc he's sure he can't let them out when they two of you don't match
it's cheating
it's wrongso he simply savors the feeling of your hands on his neck silently, for only him to think about
okay back to your pov
chanyeol has a big show coming up with a few of his mates, and there's a certain move he couldn't get down so he came to you for help
and he's dressed in a simple sweatpants and hoodie combination but you can't help but think of how cuddly he looks and how much you'd like to kiss him in this moment
"so i rlly want to get this move down bc there might be performance school scouts in the audience and also my soulmate will be there and she's pretty mad at me so i'd like to try and impress her enough to make her happy again"
your eyebrows furrow bc,,, well he's never mentioned a soulmate before and you always secretly hoped,,, nevermind it rlly doesn't matter now
except that your heart feels like it's breaking
"soulmate?" you almost choke on the words
"yeah" chanyeol replies, "we've got matching tattoos, see?"
he rolls up his shirt, and although your eyes want to linger on his toned abdomen, you force them to focus on the sun tattoo just along his hip joint
it's your tattoo
i mean, it's not a moon but it's the same art style and color shades and everything but when chanyeol pulls out his phone and shows you a girl w a sun tattoo of her wrist, more cartoon looking and less neutral in color, you find yourself discouraged
chanyeol is supposed to be w you,,, according to your tattoos,,,, but he thinks he's supposed to be w another
and it breaks your heart bc after all this your main priority is still chanyeol's happiness,, even if that means letting him go
"what's your tattoo?" he asks, reaching for the hem of your shirt
you swat him away and mutter something about not having a soulmate and something in chanyeol's expression falls
and you don't know why
but to him hearing those words feels like a million pieces of shattered glass have just pierced through his heart
and his tattoo is burning something fierce like he's close to falling onto the ground
you finally notice the way his body is shivering and the way his expression is falling "what's wrong?"
"i don't know," he says, and he truly doesn't know.
all he knows is that your words triggered something awful inside of him.
he marks it down as sympathy
you offer him your hand and when he takes it, the pain against his hip is too much and he falls to the floor, feeling this desperate and distant longing towards you
but he doesn't know what it is
"i h-have to go," he says quickly, and darts out of the practice room too fast for your liking.
and you feel a similar pain in your heart, this urge to follow him and hold him close
you know it's the soulmate link talking,,,, but he's made his decision,,,, so you ignore it
however, as the days go by, you wish you had followed after him
bc he left for good,,,, and the pain in your heart and your tattoo has you aching to see him again,,, if just for a fleeting second
maybe to clear everything up
and it's as if chanyeol knows when you're thinking of him bc suddenly the door to the studio opens
and you had just finished a dance routine and are now sitting on the ground struggling to catch your breath
but chanyeol's presence has you nearly choking on your water
"what're you doing here?"
he doesn't know rlly,, how is he supposed to tell you that he left his soulmate to be with you?
and he's never been good with words so he just sits beside you and places his hand on his heart like "it hurts"
perhaps you know what he's saying bc your heart is hurting too
it's a pain that pounds in your ears until the urge to reach forward and close the gap with your soulmate consumes you
"chanyeol, I have to tell you something."
"me first," he says, and without your answer he grabs your hand and places it against his heart. "i know you don't have a soulmate, and i know i already have one,,,, but i've never felt this feelings that i feel when i'm with you,,, and i've never felt pain like i've felt without you"
as says this he leans in, until his lips are grazing over yours, "y/n, i think i love you."
he kisses you, and when your palm runs down his abdomen to rest against his tattoo, he feels a rush of calm and safety in your fingertips
as much as you want to keep kissing him forever, you pull back and lift your shirt slightly, showing him the moon inked into your skin.
he stops and stares, and your breath hitches as he reaches forward to trace the design against your skin "you... you're my... so she and i were never — why didn't you tell me before?"
you bite your lip nervously, "you were so happy with her and,,,, that's all i wanted,,, was for you to be happy"
"i wasn't happy," he rushes to confess, peppering kisses all across your face and then your lips "i thought" kiss "I couldn't be" kiss "with you" kiss "bc i thought you" kiss "weren't my soulmate"
he pulls back enough to smile at you "but you are, so everything can be okay."
that's soulmate!chanyeol
and y'all live happily ever after pretty much!!!
<3
