To be honest, I definitely wouldn't draw on my skin again willingly because afterwards it was very painful -- my skin was burning, itching, and I wanted to cry HAHAHA. I've always been a fan of white ink tattoos, and tribal tattoos in general, so this will probably be as close as I get to having those. :) I'll let you guys know how my skin's healing process goes after time!
UPDATE (02.03.14): As of today, my skin has significantly healed, and I no longer feel the pressing (ha) need to take antihistamines. My skin still creates welts when it's scratched, or if I'm rubbing my arms on fabric (like when I'm working on schoolwork and sewing), but it's a significantly less severe reaction as before. I'm so relieved that it's healing very well, because my dermatologist was worried about the possibility of it lasting forever :(! I'm hoping my skin makes a full recovery within the next few weeks, but I still have to avoid handling dyes for the duration of the healing process (which is just time...)
UPDATE (03.01.14): I forgot which day it happened, but I realized sometime ago that I no longer felt any pain from wearing clothes, and my skin stopped welting completely. I'm so happy! But I'm still scared of using the spray dye haha! Oh well, in time. We'll see if I try it again - this time with a thorough rinse and a much better-ventilated area. :)
