Title: Tattoos: Yey or Ney?
Post by: landjholm on February 03, 2009, 07:42:20 pm: I say Yey.

I've designed several tattoos for friends and family, but yet to get one myself. Once my brother gets back from Iraq (his plane arrives in the USA 10 AM tomorrow!!) he is going to take me to get one to thank me for all the tats I designed for him.

If you don't like tattoos, why? If you do, or if you have one, post a pic or at least discribe it if it is not G rated.

Post by: Kymberli0529 on February 03, 2009, 08:17:15 pm: I have one and am going to be getting two more in the next few months. Well, definitely one, maybe two if I can find someone to draw my idea out for the other.

I love tattoos and want a sleeve and backpiece.

Post by: landjholm on February 03, 2009, 08:32:44 pm: What is your tattoo of?

The one I am getting is my "Ode to Motherhood". I don't think I could post my drawing for it cause if anyone on here is offended by a mother nursing her child then, yeah, you do not want to see my tattoo.

As if you can't guess, it is of a mother nursing a child. But not a literal depiction. Imagine a tribal figure meets an abstracted stained glass window. That's the style of my tat. No details but you know what it is.

Post by: Emilyf47 on February 03, 2009, 09:09:45 pm: YEY!!!! Next month I am headed out to Vegas. We are getting tat's when we get there. I would love to get Angel wings on my shoulder blades, but think that might be to much. I have a tribal on my lower back. I got it in1997 before the "tramp stamp" became popular. I would love to get a moon right above it. Or get my son's date of birth somewhere. I am not sure yet. :angel12:

Post by: bschumacher on February 04, 2009, 10:48:43 am: The trouble with tattoos is that if, 10 years later, you get divorced and want to remove your ex-husband's name off your shoulder, it can be a fairly painful and expensive process!!!
Title: Re: Tattoos: Yey or Ney?
Post by: harrelsonpj on February 04, 2009, 12:16:03 pm: I say yey! But I can see where some people might not think so. For me, I don't have any yet but I have a few picked out. I think it's something you should think through. I also don't think I could ever get a name of someone (unless it was a child or friend/family member who has passed) because you never know where life is going to take you and you might not want "Fred" on your butt in a few years....

But yeah, it's a yey for me.

Post by: DCOVERT on February 04, 2009, 12:33:48 pm: I say Yey! Tatoos are one way you can express yourself...I have 3 and I love them all. The only advice I would give is to think about your day to day lifestyle. I work in a corporate office, so I made sure to have mine in spots where they wouldn't really be seen and considered unprofessional.

That's very good advice that I wish some people would take into consideration. A lot of people put all their energy into picking the perfect tattoo but then just have them put it wherever.

I think the back is a good place since the types of shirts you wear to a job would cover it up.
Title: Re: Tattoos: Yey or Ney?
Post by: landjholm on February 04, 2009, 09:53:42 pm: I designed this tattoo back in the late winter/early spring of 2003. So I've been sitting on this design for 6 years. I still want to get it just as bad now as I did when I designed it. I am going to get it on my back, between my shoulder blades, and have the names of my children listed below it, basically one on each vertebra, because my family is my back bone.
Title: Re: Tattoos: Yey or Ney?
Post by: TomD on February 05, 2009, 08:22:09 am: Nah for me, but to each their own. I cant think of one thing i'd like forever inked on my skin

My dad had 20+ tattoos from the military and other places, but always talked against them.
Title: Re: Tattoos: Yey or Ney?
Post by: amy11077 on February 05, 2009, 02:38:15 pm: I don't really say yay or nay. I do have one, but do have mixed feelings about it. Sometimes I like the way it looks to have one, and the meaning behind mine. Then other days I wish it wasn't there and so irreversible. It's on my shoulder so it's easily hidden, but when it comes to having to wear a dress it's hard to find one that will cover it and still not look like an old lady dress. I hate looking at my wedding reception pictures because the dress I wore for it showed my tatoo. It was even more "illuminated" than normal because I tried covering it up with makeup. oh well. :dontknow:
Title: Re: Tattoos: Yey or Ney?
Post by: jaymz462 on February 05, 2009, 02:46:18 pm: I've got a black and red Eye of Sauron on my right shoulder. No good pics of it, sorry. I'd like to get another eye-themed tat on my left should in the not-too-distant future.
Title: Re: Tattoos: Yey or Ney?
Post by: AlexDenlinger on February 05, 2009, 03:50:37 pm: For me its a Ney.

I don't like the look of tattoo's or percings (beside earings). It ruins the natural beauty of the human body. Its amuseing how some people spend all kinds of money to keep their skin looking nice, while others don't mind permanetly marking it up. :P
Title: Re: Tattoos: Yey or Ney?
Post by: vpeinado on February 05, 2009, 04:04:01 pm: I'm totally for tattoos BUT I don't like the ones that seem as if they have no rhyme or reason. I have mine in descrete areas. I won't get them where they are visible. As you get older, for me, it would seem that a star on your neck would be uncool but one on your shoulder where it can be covered, works.

Post by: ODOMS6598 on February 05, 2009, 04:42:54 pm: i say yeah. i dont have any yet but i am planning on getting a few. the first one will be for my son who got killed in a car accident in 2007 havent quite got the design i want yet so that's why i havent got it yet. i want it to be in his memory.. he was only 16. :sad1:
Title: Re: Tattoos: Yey or Ney?
Post by: candace_j on February 05, 2009, 05:15:10 pm: I say yeah too. I have one, and I definitely want to get more. When I got my first one I was ready to get another one, it made me believe how some people say they're addicting.

Post by: simguy13 on February 06, 2009, 08:07:48 am: Ney. I don't really like them enough to get one. It is definitely not for me. If my kids wanted one I will be against it completely. I don't have anything against anyone how chose to get one though.

Title: Re: Tattoos: Yey or Ney?
Post by: feverish on February 06, 2009, 09:41:53 pm: I have 2 tattoos, & I love them both :)

I have a giant squid done in color on my left hip. It stretches all the way around my hip to my lower back. I absolutely love it. I also have a very small geometric seahorse behind my left ear. Not a lot of people see that one, I just think it's cute :)

I doubt I will ever get more. I've thought of it, but there's not really anything else I can think of that I'd want permanently inked on me/or a location I can think of to put it!

My thoughts exactly. Since mine is going on my back, I will never technically see it without the aid of the mirror... so I don't care what it looks like. Only the people sponge bathing me at the rest home are going to see it and I have a feeling I am going to be the ornery type of geezer that won't care.

Title: Re: Tattoos: Yey or Ney?
Post by: KariCash on February 07, 2009, 09:32:48 am: My husband has 5. 2 of them are red and black stars. The other 3 are for our kids. Our daughter's name in Hebrew (where her name originated), the DC shoe symbol (our son's initials are DC) and a dove because our youngest son's name means Dove. I like them all but I have to be honest that I think it takes away some. He didn't have them when we got married and I kind of miss seeing his "virgin" skin ;) I do like what he chose to have put on his body though. I have talked about getting one with our anniverary and the name of our song but I'm just not sure. I would definitely say if you're not sure don't rush into it!!

I would check and see if it means princess in Japanese first... maybe the tat artist confused the two languages.

.try to get something you really like :angel11:

Yes, always do this. Also, get something original. So many people end up getting generic, cookie cutter tats and many of them regret it in the future. If you pick a nice design that you like and have a good artist redraw it to your exact liking, you are sure to have an original piece that nobody will ever have, except you.

I agree with this very much! That's why I am designing all the tats I will ever get, and why my friends and brother come to me to design theirs.

My brother did get a tat that I did not design, he saw online. It is a "soldier's tombstone" by Shane Hart I belive. It's a machine gun with his barrel stuck in the ground surrounded by skulls. A helmet is on top of the butt of the gun, and dog tags are hanging from the magazine clip.

It takes up his whole length of his back. However, to make it original to him, he had the tat artist add another skull, and he is having me design a background of a war scene so it will cover his whole back.

Title: Re: Tattoos: Yey or Ney?
Post by: MsWifey on February 08, 2009, 10:41:05 pm: I am conflicted about tats, yes I have 2 and getting 1 more. The 2 that I have are nice I have one one on my left ankle of a rose and a butterfly with my daughters name under it, I like it but it hurt like hell. The other is a tiny one it's my wedding band and it's very plain with my husbands name one the palm side that one hurt way more than the other one. The last one I want to get is of a tree frog on a dirt bike with my sons name somewhere, but I haven't found anyone who could draw to my liking plus the pain factor. OK now why am I conflicted, I do understand that its art and that's all cool, but part of my family on my dads side are covered with them because they were free and my sister who is 3 yrs younger than me had 52 tats and they were not nice ones that was 5 yrs ago. All I can say is I will be the one laughing when we are all old and all those tats are stretched out and gross looking...lol

Hey landjholm Did your brother make it in? Did he take you to get your tat????

Yes, my brother made to the USA safely on the 4th, but he is stuck on base in SC until April. That's when he has his vacation, and he will then come up here to be with family before he is shipped out to his next assignment in Japan.

So I will be getting my tattoo in April when he comes up.

I completely believe tattoos are a form of art and a form of art history being around for so many years.

Post by: sofiasaenz on February 23, 2009, 05:27:16 pm: I say yey, but only if the tattoo is meaningful. A lot of young people tend to forget that tattoos are a permanent fixture on your body and get caught up in the hype of just getting one. Personally I think tattoos are a work of art, and you shouldn't get a tattoo just for the hell of it. All of my tattoos were very thought out and have so much personal meaning to me that I'm okay with looking at them even when I turn 70.

Its your body so you should be able to put whatever you want on it, especially if its expressing yourself.

I waited a long time (til late 30's) to get mine, I thought about it a long time first. They're addicting, and I like seeing people's tats. They're so personal, and most people will be happy to tell you about them. That's always interesting to me.

The customer's of tats today have it made; their tattoos are made with a different type of ink that comes in minuscule beads worked into a tattoo that are easily broken down when under a special laser and quickly leave the body thru the blood when removed. No scarring... :thumbsup:

I say Yey.

I've designed several tattoos for friends and family, but yet to get one myself. Once my brother gets back from Iraq (his plane arrives in the USA 10 AM tomorrow!!) he is going to take me to get one to thank me for all the tats I designed for him.

If you don't like tattoos, why? If you do, or if you have one, post a pic or at least discribe it if it is not G rated.

Post by: aprils85 on March 08, 2009, 12:32:04 pm: I enjoy tattoos in moderation, but to each his own. I have one now and wouldn't mind getting a few more. I think they are mysterious because you never really know why a person got one or what it means to them. There are usually stories behind each tattoo.

Post by: klkwid on March 18, 2009, 07:40:52 pm: That's a completely personal thing-I personally like them! It's a great way to express your creativity or show your affection for something. I designed my own and I love them (2 of them). Someone once gave me really good advice, though-never put anyone's name on you unless they are deceased. OK, it sounds really weird and morbid, but someone else mentioned something about what if you divorce your husband or break up with your boyfriend and you want their name off? Well, think about it!! The deceased rule does make sense....

I have two myself, and I plan on getting the whole top part of my back done. I love them, I think they are beautiful and sometimes can say a lot about whom a person is. Some people are so negative about them, and sure everyone is entitled to their opinion. But I think you should go for it. Now if it is your first one, I suggest getting it somewhere that it can only be seen when you want it seen. Here’s a picture of mine, like I said though, the one on my back isn’t complete yet.
You might have to go to Myspace page to see the tat on my back

A row of starts across my lower back (yeah so originally, i know i know but i thought it was cute and i still do), heart cherries on the crook of my hip (first one and i still absolutely love it) and then stars leading from the side of my foot up to the little toe next to the big one on my left foot. Would link pictures but i don't think I have any of them up on my myspace =/

All of mine though are easy to hide if I don't want them seen, which is one thing I made sure of before I got them. I expect to still like them in 20 years but, in the case that I don't, they're not staring me in the face anyways =)

i love tattoos! i have one myself, and definitely hope to get more in the future. i love when people go all out and get a lot. i think kat von d is gorgeous simply because of her tats. i love art and most ways of expressing it, tattoos being at the top of my list.

ooh, i for sure think kat von d is gorgeous too!

Post by: nellet on May 12, 2009, 09:43:06 am: tattoos are cool. most of my friends want em or have em. my bf has one on his arm of a red and black dragon and my older sister just got one as well. i won't ever get one, but that's because i don't have anything that i like enough to have on me for the rest of my life. :P

Title: Re: Tattoos: Yey or Ney?
Post by: UltimateChase on May 12, 2009, 11:45:28 pm: I have two. I don't know, I got my first one when I was drunk. It was a bad choice. Didn't come out very well. But, who cares? I have an ugly little tattoo on my ankle and a totally sweet one on my arm. I never even notice them anymore. I'll get some more tattoos. Everyone says you really need to think about it for a long time and make sure you get the right tattoo. I don't think it's that big a deal. Yeah, it's forever. So what? It's just some ink in your skin. Tattoos should be important, unique and done by a professional. But if they're not, it's not the end of the world. Unless you get them on your face, anyway.

Post by: MikaylasMama73 on May 13, 2009, 01:15:28 am: I have been debating on getting a tattoo for a while now.. I really want one.. but I want to make sure it means something to me for the rest of my life.. since it will be on me forever.. I would just think long and hard about what your going to get to make sure you will be happy with it on your body for the rest of your life...

Post by: julius11 on May 13, 2009, 02:18:11 am: I work in the medical field and on day I had a patient, older lady, pass away. She had a tattoo of the popeye the sailer on her left gluteus maximus :sad1: I said to myself that it probably looked decent ten or twenty years ago. But now, it looked odd and gross. I think that help made my decision that I should not get something permanant that might look good now but not so good when my skin start sagging and wrinkling.

Post by: kristysaiko on May 13, 2009, 02:59:34 am: Definitely yey on the tattoo ordeal. I'm covered and so is my fiance. If it weren't for tattoos, my fiance would be out of a job being a tattoo artist. I think they are great, but some people get too worked up about them. It's merely permanent art.

Post by: rcbrad on May 13, 2009, 04:52:42 am: I say if that is what you like and it makes you happy go for it. For my personal feelings towards my body, I was never interested in tattoos because it is like placing graffiti on your body.

Post by: sheliawheeler on May 13, 2009, 08:17:13 am: I wanted a tattoo before I went with my friend to get one. She has several on different parts of her body. However, she went to get one on her chest and it was a nightmare! I don't know if it was because of where she got the tattoo or what, but she acted as if she were in labor!!! She was grinding her teeth and screaming! All she got was a small ladybug!!! She has other tattoos 5x the size of this little lady bug and she swears they didn't hurt at all. Can someone please explain what could have happened? I really want a tattoo of a Tasmanian devil, but I think I have changed my mind completely.
Title: Re: Tattoos: Yey or Ney?
Post by: vlsm23 on May 13, 2009, 08:51:21 am: YEY!!!! I have 6 myself and am planning to get more, but only small ones. My husband wants to be covered in tattoos and already has most of one sleeve with a total of 12 tattoos. We both got sparrow tattoos before our wedding to have somewhat matching tattoos, and when we finally have money again we plan on getting tattoos that relate to our honeymoon - we went to Jamaica and it was amazing!

I see tattoos as art and believe there is usually nothing wrong with them. Sometimes people go too far with offensive tattoos or tattoos in places that are unattractive, but most tattoos are beautiful and have a fun story. I actually almost did my masters thesis on the taboo of tattoos in the workplace, and why focusing on tattoos and other body art can be considered discrimination.

Post by: MikeIriz on May 13, 2009, 09:39:33 am: yeah tatoos are a piece of art and they tell alot about a person, i personalley have to myself.. a dragon and an eagle

I haven't and won't ever get one. :bunny:

Mainly because I'd probably change my mind after I got one. :BangHead:

I think tattoos can be extremely gorgeous, creative, and sexy. They are a turn on to me lol =P And yes, I have tattoos.
Title: Re: Tattoos: Yey or Ney?
Post by: Azanne07 on November 29, 2009, 07:39:12 pm: Niether it all depends. Someone who is covered in tattoos is gross. But one on your arm or leg is nice depending on what the tattoo is of. Would I ever get one? Not in my lifetime. I dont like needles or pain. I would howver get on that washes off.
Title: Re: Tattoos: Yey or Ney?
Post by: irishlady1970 on November 30, 2009, 04:55:02 pm: YEY on tattoos...I have 2 butterflies one on my ankle and one on my shoulderblade. Tatoos are personal and should be thought about very carefully. Tattoos are a great way to express yourself and speak to the uniqueness in all of us.
Title: Re: Tattoos: Yey or Ney?
Post by: mistymcgregory on November 30, 2009, 04:57:56 pm: I love tattoos. I have two as of right now, a cross on my right leg representing my daughter and a fairy on my right shoulder blade (got pregnant the night I had received that one with my second child). My next two are going to represent my grandparents and my new daughter.

Post by: wuzupg32 on January 28, 2010, 11:49:16 pm: Yay for me...as long as you stop and truly think about what you are getting before you get it. They should'nt be "decoration" or a way for you to feel or be "cool," they should always have an underlying meaning. And don't forget to think about what they will look like when you are 95 and your skin is hanging around your ankles!!!

My husband and I have bought tattoos for special occasions, like our anniversary. Why waste money on flowers that die in a few days, when ink lasts forever?
