bjt22 Posted December 9, 2009 Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 I'm old. I associate tattoos with beer bellied old men who served during WWII. Not an appealing image. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would get something that means a great deal to you. I have been a Mickey Mouse fan since I was 5 (now 30) so I have a tattoo of Mickey Mouse. I would highly suggest that you do put thought into it because you do want it to be special. Start looking online at designs. Think about some of your favorite sayings or quotations. It's fun, really! I love mine. I look at it everyday and smile! Thanks for responding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erik Posted December 9, 2009 Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 No tattoo yet. I'm waiting on the results of the DI-NET logo contest first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
potsgirl Posted December 9, 2009 Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 I got a tattoo about 20 years ago of a dolphin jumping through a sickle moon with a couple of stars around it. It's small, and on my inner left ankle. That way, I can hide it if need be. About 6 years ago, when I found out I was allergic to my eye makeup, I had eyeliner tattooed on. It's very nice to go out and at least have some kind of 'make-up' on my face, because unless it's a special event, I don't wear any. TIP: Don't put your tattoo on any hard, bony area if you can avoid it. Youch.Cheers,Jana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayjay Posted December 9, 2009 Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 Another Kari (although not my real spelling)- I'm 36 and if I got a tattoo my Mom and Dad would cry! I hope I live to be old and tats are not cute on little old ladies!You have to have the personality to carry them off...I don't. I do have an Eeyore jibbit on my crocs though...I kind of think of him as my shoe tat! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My hands shake, making applying it none too easy, yet I don't feel fully "made up" without it. I know someone who had it done, and for her, the only downside was that it seemed to fade quite a bit after a year or so. Have you had this happen with yours?

potsgirl Posted December 9, 2009 Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 No, mine hasn't faded at all. I gave it to myself as a present when I finished my grad degree. Actually, now that I think about it, it's been 8 years! If you decide to do it, just make sure it's at a very reputable place. I went with a grayish color, so it's dark enough but not glaringly black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like the idea of waiting to see about the logo contest though! That is a thought! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bizbiz Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 Hate to be a downer, but I have 5 and they are THE BIGGEST REGRETS OF MY LIFE!! Uuuggghhh...I hate them! I loved them until I got pregnant, then when I had a lot of appointments / check-ups, I started feeling so embarressed and ashamed of them. Once my baby was born it changed my perspective on so many things, and now I see them differently and I really wished I hadn't got them.Dont get me wrong, I dont look down on other people who have them, I just dont like them on myself anymore. I feel like they make me look dirty and cheap, even though you cant see most of them...lucky because I have a huge one all down my ribs.In Poland (I'm Polish) the only people who used to get tattoo's were jail people, or just rough-nuts, and that has stuck in the minds of a lot of older Polish people, so when they see people with tattoo's they associate them with those types of people. My poor mum... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MommytoSJEA Posted December 15, 2009 Report Share Posted December 15, 2009 I have 4 tattoos. One on my lower back of 7 dasies, a butterfly on my pelvic bone (yeah that looked great during pg...lol) UNDER the butterfly is a heart that had to be covered up , and I have the sacred heart on my left outer thigh. I would LOVE to have angel wings done on my back. My hubby HATES my tattoos though. You cant see any of them unless I show you, but he deems them trashy on women. ah well...I like them They are addicting~Kelli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erickamcc0523 Posted January 2, 2010 Report Share Posted January 2, 2010 I have 4 tattoos... A Vulcan IDIC on my left shoulder blade, and icthus (a fish) on my right bicep, a tattoo of the word "serenity" on the side of my left foot (and for the S, I had it replaced with a treble clef), and the most painful one, on my right foot, I have a scroll with "Jesus the Messiah" written in Hebrew. Though I don't really regret them (actually, I don't regret them at all), at least two of them I wish that I had waited a bit more before I got them. I would like to get a couple more, but after the reaction of some folks at church to my tats (not to me, though), I will have to have a sign fall from the sky before I would get another one. I do want to get an Immaculate Heart an a Byzantine Icon of the Theotokos somewhere... but I'll hold off on that for a few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinkerbella Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 I love removable ones. at my granddaughter 5th birthday the grownups had more of the party tattoos on them than the kids. They were in a great book full of them from Target. I want my own book!!!! ; ) So, we can ask silly questions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
