Who's got em? do you regret them, or love them dearly? I want 2, small ones, and I know exactly wher and what I want, I've wanted the same thing for years, but I'm not about to rush into anything permanant, so I want to hear pros and cons from folks who've got them already. talk to me kids!
I have six and each represents that part of life when I got them done, where my heart and head was at. I do not regret a single one as I thought long and hard about each before committing to the needle. No flash, I worked with the artist with each design, and the same artist did all but two. Dusty down in Venice beach. I wonder if he is still there. Should you decide to get inked, look him up, he is the best.
i have two. my first was my peace sign on my shoulder and the other was my half yinyang. hubby has the other half. i will try to take a pic of the peace sign all i have now is the yinyang...but for some reason i can't upload it...i will try later...but its cool
I have 3. A tribal flower red&blue on my hipbone. It is actually a cover up I got when I was 16 of a sun that I had gotten at 15 (which was poorly done by this big biker dude at a nasty shop). I half regret it. If I could erase it I would.....for something else. I just dont like it as much as I should for something so permament...but hey, I picked it out when I was 16.....I thought it looked "cool" and was "pretty". Now I would prefer it to have more meaning. That was in 1997...Im a bit of a different person now. My second one I got at 18. A tribal butterfly on the small of my back. Talk about origional I liked it...I still do, It's cool, but the fact that every girl has one makes me hate it. (I didnt realize it was so fucking popular then or I wouldnt have gotton it) So I am going to look into maybe a coverup.....or atleast add on to it. Or maybe even removal....who knows? My third on is the face of a tiger on my thigh. It's good work.....I think its beautiful....but here's a tip (as if you didnt know) dont ever get a tatoo when you are druggin'. Needless to say I liked it much more then, then I do now. I'm like "what was I thinking?!" hehe. So I might look into removal of that one too. The problem with all my tats are that they are pretty big, so a coverup may not work all that well. But I know they are permemant and I always knew that....so I might as well like 'em. I dont really have a choice, do I? But yeah, if I could change them all with a magic stick I would....Im definatley going to look in to getting them redone or removed, but if that doesnt work out...then oh well. They are all good work and they are still pretty.....so whatever. I think its great though that you are taking your time with it.....what do you want? and where? ' well damn, that was long enough huh?
check out my gallery to see a few of mine. i love them all. if there are some that i end up not wanting to see anymore they can get covered up with something else. that way i always now what is under all the layers of ink on my canvas.
I have 4... I got them all at 16, so that right there say's that I didn't think much about them and pretty much got them because this artist just happend to not ID me. So I was like Hell yeah...I mean 3 of them are cool, and I don't really regret, but they don't have much meaning behind them, they're just cool looking. The 4th and Last tat I got, I absolutely hate and seriously want to get it covered... #1 : On my left shoulder blade, a coy fish...just the outline in black. It was supposed to be 2 coy, opposit eachother, kind of in a yinyang pattern, but since it was my first tat and I wasn't taking it too well at first, he stopped and told me to come back in to get it finished another time, and I never did. I like the way it looks though. #2 : Right leg, above my ankle. A cresent moon made from fire - #3 : Left leg above ankle, cresent moon made from water - #4 : The one I hate so much and absolutely despise because it's stupid, it was done 10 time bigger than it was supposed to be, and done SOOOOOO bad, it's all blochy and fading already and looks just aweful....it's a black widow spider under my belly button. Grrr.... But Im on my way to get my 5th tat VERY soon coz I've been wanting it forever, I'm getting an Om symbol on the small of my back, but Im having my boyfriend draw it out so it has part of him with it. And I want to get something that relates to pink floyd, I have to, they mean so much to me....I was thinking the prism really close to the crease of my thigh, really low ya know.... I dunno yet
I HAVE 5 AND I LOVE THEM . 1. A BIG FAIRY ON A VINE WITH FLOWERS ON MY RIGHT ARM 2. A BUTTERFLY ON A MUSHROOM ON MY TUMMY 3. A NAUTICAL STAR ON EACH SHOULDER (COUNTS AS TWO lol).... KEEP ME BALANCED 4. SUBLIME ACROSS MY BACK....I AM SUBLIME =) . . I AM GOING TO GET A HALF SLEEVE OF ALL THE CHARACTERS FROM ALICE IN WONDERLAND ON MY LEFT ARM WITH BLUE AND PURPLE SMOKE AND NEGATIVE STARS.......
you guys are amazing and beautiful, thank you so much! WonTon, your tatoos are incredible, I love them. You all have helped me so much, I think I'm going to go for it when I have the money. Thank you all, blessings and love to each of you
I have to, my first was a fairy on my left shoulder blade second was the sign of virgo on the back of my neck. I love them both and I hope to get another one soon.
all your tattoos sound sweet. Funky, the idea for your sleeve sounds wicked!!! I have a couple, a sun on my lower back and the word revolution across the inside of my right wrist. my next tattoo is going to be wicked tho, i cant wait to get it, but i cant share, cuz it's a secret
OUCh inside the wrist...didn't that hurt as hell??I mean...isn't that a dangerous spot? (well...tatoos hurt anyways..I think, but you know what I mean... ) Sorry...don't have tatoos....
