🩹 Burn Recovery Update – Day 1 🩹

I figured I’d keep you all updated. Today was my first bandage change.
Nobody warned me that the bandage was going to decide it wanted to become part of my hand. 😖

Despite soaking it and trying to be careful, parts of the dressing were stuck to the burn, and pulling it off was absolute agony. I don’t know if I’ve ever been so focused on not passing out.

The good news is that everything still looks healthy. The doctors want me moving my thumb as much as I can tolerate so it doesn’t heal too tight and limit mobility later. That sounds simple until you realize your thumb suddenly feels like it’s made of 🔥lava.🔥

I’ve learned a few things in the last 24 hours:

🔥 Burns are way worse than I ever imagined.

❤️‍🩹I respected burn survivors before, but now I have a whole new respect for burn survivors.

😭 I really miss drawing and tattooing already.

I’m still working through rescheduling appointments and trying to answer messages in between pain med naps. Thank you to everyone who has checked on me, sent prayers, offered help, or just made me laugh today. It means a lot.

For now, my full-time job is healing.

‼️ TRIGGER WARNING: Burn Injury Photos Included ‼️

Hey beautiful creatures,

Just wanted to give everyone a heads up that I won’t be in the shop for at least the next week.

Last night I severely burned my right hand with hot cooking oil, and unfortunately it wasn’t a small burn. Since this is the hand I draw with, tattoo with, and pretty much do everything with, I don’t really have a choice but to take a step back and let it heal.

The good news is that the doctors are expecting a full recovery, full mobility, and at this time they do not believe there is tendon, nerve, or muscle damage. They also do not believe I will need a skin graft.

The bad news? It hurts like absolute HACK!

For those wondering what happened: nearly a full pot of boiling hot grease hit my hand when cooking, my hand stuck to my shirt, and when I pulled away it took skin with it. I ended up driving myself to the hospital and was later transferred to Vanderbilt’s burn team for treatment. They gave me LOTS of pain medication and cleaned and debrided the burns, wrapped everything up, loaded me down with supplies, and gave me strict instructions to stay off work until after my follow-up appointment next week.

I am already working on contacting clients and rescheduling appointments that will be affected. I know this is frustrating, and trust me, I’m just as upset about it as you are. I love what I do, and being unable to tattoo is not how I planned to spend my week. 😭😭😭

Thank you to everyone who has checked in, sent messages, offered prayers, and reached out. It means more than you know.

For now, my job is simple:

🩹 Keep it clean
🩹 Keep it moving so it heals properly
🩹 Don’t do anything stupid
🩹 Heal

I’ll keep everyone updated as I know more.

You ever start a “quick” home project and then suddenly you’re 4 YouTube videos in, 3 trips deep into Lowe’s, covered in dust, holding a flashlight with your teeth wondering how your entire weekend got consumed by one home project that was supposed to be fast and easy? 👷🏻‍♀️🪚🚧🧰

I think one of the biggest misconceptions people have about tattoo artists is thinking we only wanna tattoo giant expensive pieces.
And to an extent that is true but I’m over here practically shaking people by the shoulders going:

“PLEASE LET ME DO THE WEIRD LITTLE CREATURE.” 🫵

Seriously.

Some of my favorite tattoos are:
🦴 tiny spooky things
🐸 dumb little frogs
🦋 pretty filler pieces
⚔️ fantasy nonsense
🕯 strange cryptic symbols
🦖 tiny dinosaurs
✨ random flash somebody got on impulse and ended up obsessing over. Not every appointment has to be some massive multi-session life event. Sometimes tattooing is supposed to just be FUN. That’s literally why I made this sale.

I wanted people to be able to:
✨ grab cool art
✨ try getting tattooed for the first time
✨ fill awkward spaces
✨ collect weird little pieces
✨ get something beautiful without needing a giant budget

I feel like some of y’all are waiting for permission to book. THIS IS YOUR PERMISSION. 😂

You do not need:
❌ a full sleeve plan
❌ a Pinterest board with 700 references
❌ a dramatic backstory
❌ to “be heavily tattooed already”

You just need to see something you love and message me. That’s it. 🥰

So DM me before your favorite gets claimed by somebody faster than you. 🔥
