I am far too chicken to even think about it! If not for that, I suppose I would have all my children's names on the back of one shoulder in the color of their birthstones.

ALL COVERABLE B/C OF THE JOB THOUGH!!! I don't necessarily think that there' anything wrong with them....but some employers do..I should be a farmer....then I could be my own boss, then I wouldn't have to to worry about that! ;)

I have one on my lower back. Just got it at age 34, this past may in Hawaii. Hubster and I both got one together. Mine is custom: a Christian cross (representing my faith) 2 plumeria flowers (representing my love of nature and the Hawaiian Islands), some cool scrollwork (representing my femininity) and above all of this are the initials of my husband and 3 children.
I don't regret it at all. Am now thinking of something Celtic for number two.

Anna- They don't hurt anymore that a papercut. It fades in and out. My Wizard took two hours and I read a book the whole time.
I don't regret any of my tattoos, and I have 9. My first one was thirteen years ago. Still no regrets. When you decide to get one think it through, something you can live with for the rest of you life. Everyone of mine says somrthing about the place I was at that time in my life. Each one tells a story.

None for me; not now , not ever... Call me chicken, or unable to make that type of decision, or just plain don't like em. I am, however, reading an interesting book called "Electric Michelangelo" by Sarah Hall about a tattoo artist. Good read.

One other thing.
Just how bad is the pain? On a 1 to 5 scale. I have a fairly high threshold but am told it just gets annoying after awhile, then sore.

My brother has a few, but the best is the blue octopus on his upper arm.
He'll eventually add to it to make an underwater scene. that will be cool. He likes octopi because they are mysterious, very intelligent and not very common. |

I don't have any tattoos, and probably won't. But I always wanted a cherry tree with blossoms, three branches to represent my kiddos. it would be between my shoulders going up to my hair line!
What an amazing life! |

for my 40th, I'll be going under the needle next year.
I finally found a graphic that i'll be able to wear into my 80's and not have to worry about sagging or fading much.
the image is almost a foot in length it has 1940's style graphics/swirls (can't remember the correct name of that style) and features black sillouettes of the Belgian Tervuen male and female.
bigger decision is, do I want down the middle of my back or off to the right. It's a pain factor there, as I have heard tats on bone are really painful
I find body art very intersting and try so hard not to stare when I see someone all tatted up. the artists who do this stuff must have infinite patience not to mention all kinds of skill.
I so many times want to hear the stories behind the images people choose.
for me, there will always be a Belgian Shepherd in my life. these dogs have had such an influence. the one male I knew from childhood kept my dream alive for over 20 years until the dream was able to become reality in 1998. |

No tats for me, either! I do not like needles. I also figure my son, who is in the Army, has plenty of tattoos for both of us!! Although if I were ever to get one, it would have to be a Buffalo!!

That's funny. My daughter just got a BIG fancy MOM on her left forearm! It's on the side of her forearm. It's very pretty, but I was really surprised and touched by it. So now we she turns her arm it says "WOW MOM" lol

No toos for me, though I have thought about it. I used to wonder what it would look like when I was 70? You know? Besides, I don't like pain. I do like to catch Miami Ink. They do some awesome work.
DD#2 just got a hibiscus (sp?) on the top of her left food. It is pretty.
Did get a good laugh out of the MOM/WOW though! That would work! hahaha ~ thanks!

I have one on my arm that is a fairy sitting on a crescent moon. I got it for myself 20 years ago for my birthday. I quite often forget it's there until someone comments on it and my youngest, Olivia who is 3 asks me why mommy colored on herself!!! Praise God I never got something I would hate now.

Hey Jessica, then you'd be WOW what a MOM! I have no tattoos. I change my house all the time, so I cant imagine how I would change something as permanant as a tattoo. |

I have a blue rose behind my right shoulder. Want to have it touched up, maybe add a butterfly to it.

I have a small black dragonfly on my right calf muscle and I've had it for about 6 years or thereabouts.....and I still love it. I want to get another one, but can't think of what I want.....or where I would put it. I think it would probably be another dragonfly, or the chinese writing for the words love or peace or harmony....something like that.

Not at all Jenny. I didnt have a bit of trouble out of it. I figured that I could always take that out if I ever wanted to but I couldnt take a tat off so I settled for a tongue ring. Karen

No tats for me (but I've thought about it a lot). I have really fair skin and some other issues that would make a tat slow to heal. But I sometimes wear the fake ones. Oh and I've been looking for someone to do some mehendi on my hands or feet. I think that is beautiful (and not permanent)!
