Both done by Ryan @ Pain & Pleasure Tattoo in Red Deer, Alberta. The Kanji piece took 2 solid hours with no break, was my first tattoo and it hardly hurt at all! Ryan was amazed by my pain tolerance. The cherries is a friendship tattoo I got with my bff in April. Took about 45 minutes and hurt SO MUCH more than my Kanji piece!! I teared up haha.
