*POLL*what and where should i get my new tattoo?

I really like the last fairy. I agree though that it will have to be rather large to incorporate all the detail.
I'd wait until you were 18 though. When I was 17 and looking to get my first tattoo I noticed that the nice/clean better quality tattoo parlors wouldn't tattoo anyone under 18. The dirtier places would tattoo under 18 with parental permission. My mom was going to take me to get one, but after we looked at places I decided to wait until I was 18 and could go to one of the reputable places.

The one I got when I was 18 was a ladybug on my shoulder. My second tattoo was a set of paw prints on the back/side of my leg. I really love both of them and they both are meaningful to me. I also think that before you do something so permanent to your body you should take some time (at least a few months) to really decide what you want.

Make sure you get exactly what you want. Because it will be on your body forever (unless you were to get it removed) you are 100% sure its exactly what you want. I liked the unicorn #2 design, but I personally wouldnt prefer that large of a tatoo. But like I said if its what you really want. I agree with what Jackie said about your taste changing in the next 10 years or so. Also take in consideration, if you get a tatoo on your shoulder it could show through a wedding dress. If you get it on your ankle it will show if whenever you wear sandles. I know the point of getting a tatoo is to see it, but I personally would put it somewhere I could cover it up. I think if it would fit I'd put it on either your lower back, or like I voted your inner ankle.

Did that make any sense? lol

My honest feeling towards is this.. If you can't decide on your own what you want, then you don't want it really. There's something that's making you want to "rebel" in a way. You're being indecisive about it and that leads me to believe that your taste will change, maybe not tomorrow, but sometime it will... and you'll have something stuck on your body that you don't want.

Wait until you KNOW what you want. Wait until there's that feeling of "I HAVE TO HAVE THIS!" and then give it more time and see if that's still what you want.

BTW, how old are you?


My friend recently turned 18 and she really wants to show her mom just what she can do. She's talking of going to get pierced in some weird and random places and getting a tatto. Her reason, of course, being that "she can, finally, without her mom's consent".

Just think about it and give it LOTS of time before you decide anything.
