+ 1 Tattoo Mid Cycle < 8% Body Fat ?!

ad

So I dropped the razor I was shaving with on my pinky toe and bled roughly 2 cups of blood over 45 minutes trying to stop it lol

I have a tattoo appointment in 6 weeks which is when I'll peak mid cycle in blood volume. Either I hit the wrong spot on my toe or this tattoo seems like a really bad idea lol

Anyone have any ideas ?!

I got my whole forearm done on cycle at a low body fat and didn't bleed a drop, this was a few months ago, and it healed and looks perfectly fine. The bleeding comes into play when you take a look at your artist. A good artist with a steady hand should really never cause bleeding, it's the butcher types that push too hard to saturate your skin in ink to make up for their lack of talent that leave blood drips or trails. Bottom line is if you have a good artist you should have nothing to worry about, just make sure you keep it clean when lifting as infection is worse then some topical bleeding!

If your body fat is that low where the veins are sitting on the surface of the skin, I would not get any body art done.

That was my initial thought as well

WTF has happened to quality,intelligent,physical development type related posts these days??????????........... my head is spinning with the over-thought, i will post anything type of crap just maybe someone will give me karma type splurge that gets offered to us on a daily basis

Only thing that interests me with this whole post is the advertised 8% BF........ get a pic up let me have a look and if its nice you get real karma!........... thats the deal!!...... LESS WORDS......... MORE ACTIONS.

Need to be positive not negative.

I honestly don't know what you're saying. It was a legit question. I don't care about the karma points I enjoy talking with you dudes and bouncing ideas around. You all have helped me more then I can thank you for.

Second have a lot of distinct tattoos and won't be posting pics. My body fat is between 11-12 now but next month it will be around 8 like I said.

Third I hope none of this was offensive I respect your guys a lot and meant nothing negative in any way and ALWAYS appreciate a response telling me I'm dumb don't do that or stop being a bitch just pin it lol

First off I don't see the correlation between a tattoo and your injury. However, the reason you may have So much blood, is because there is an dorsalis pedis artery (dorsal artery of foot). This artery carries fresh originated blood to your feet. Depending on how deep your injury was you may have hit that artery, which will make you bleed more and clot less. Any who, I'm not a doctor this is just reasoning
,but go get that tattoo!! http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorsalis_pedis_artery

naxhma's picture

Lmfao... for clarity, this is probably it. Arteries have a harder time clotting, and an increase in "blood" has nothing to do with anything as for one of your other posts. In fact, an increase in blood would cause less bleeding in a sense since your blood would more likely be thicker.

Comcastman888's picture

This is why I come to you guys. It's so hard to find yahoo answers this good lol TY

Comcastman888's picture

I assumed an increased volume in blood would causes excess bleeding

BUT

Your reply on the artery is so spot on! I wish I could +1 for that TY much! Continuing with sleeve work

Comcastman888's picture

Nice! I wanted to have my forearm finished in color which is just a good 6-12 hours of needles and wasn't sure about going over muscle with low body fat as well as tattooing over veins and if that affects them ?! lol

Trapsquatch's picture

What did you shave with a damn boa knife....Why would a tattoo matter YOUR way over thinking it my man....

Comcastman888's picture

it's the safest razor in the world, it has like 6 blades and is basically child proof lol I have no idea why I bled so much! I overthink a lot, but across veins and muscle with no fat, does that affect the veins at all ?!
