Tattoo experiences.
 

Just wondering if any of you have tattoos, what was your experience like?

Was it painful?

Interested to see varied accounts of 'getting inked'. :hugesmile:

my first one killed me. maybe I'm just a pussy?

My first one was fine, I got it at 4AM in Kusadasi drunk out of my head lol, no pain at all.

Tatoo fads come and go, but you're stuck with the tat. I blame gobsh'tes like David Beckham.

you're my hero.


I got mine done above a wig shop.

I have 4. None hurt. the feeling was nice in a strange way actually.

Except for when they went over my spine, that wasnt so nice xD

Hangovers go away, tats don't.

What does it actually feel like? I can't imagine the feeling of needles being driven into me that quickly. :/

you're just weird. although the second one was actually okay.

Its kinda like a burning...tickling sensation :S

Never been interested in having one done cuz I'd probably tire of it after awhile.

Hmm.

I'm about to book my first (hopefully) this week. Just a simple black treble clef on the side of my arm, near my wrist (next to the bone that sticks out on the top of your wrist), it has a lot of personal meaning for me you see.

I've got a few piercings but I'm a wuss when it comes to tattoos, I've found...

Why would I want mine to go I love it?

I think you'd be a great design artist for them though.

Just found the experience irritating. Not painful. As someone once said on TV - "it's just an annoying little *****" :joker:

I've got 2. Planning to get the 3rd one very, very soon.

It surprisingly didn't hurt, I loved it all way through it.

Apparently, the closer to bone it is, the more it hurts

I have decided that I want to get one of a small 8 point star on the back of my shoulder, but Im too much of a pussy to get it done. saying this, I cant even get it done till im 18 :'(

You can get it done at 16 with parental permisson

umg.
My parents would never let me. they said If I got one, they wouldnt let me live with them. :/
I hope when I turn 18 that Im at uni or something

I was asked to try it out before actually. Just do a few doodles and send them in to a particular tattoo parlour in town. Could be interesting I suppose.

:laugh2:




I might get one next year, but im not too sure :P

get a gaga symbol. like a lightning bolt.

omg *adds this to ideas of tattoo's list*

:amazed:
You should get the peace symbol on your wrist like her

noo those are too common, plus if I got one on my wrist, it would be a bow. (yeah i know they are common too but I love them)

I might get a tatoo on one of my flabby bum cheeks then!

I'd like another on my hip or stomach I think. Or one to cover the one I have now which I got just 'cos I could'

i get fads where i want one, but i've never had one, im fairly sure i'd end up desperate to get rid of it.

It wasnt painful..
It did hurt a little/feel weird when it was near my elbow.

Got mine on the back of my arm.

I dont like how many people have them though..

My first one was when I was drunk and so was my friend, he was training to be a tattoo artist at the time and we thought it would be an amazing idea to tattoo my leg with the most hideous and tacky cross ever known to man. I can't remember if it hurt much but its been lasered off and that tickled, but considering he was drunk he did a really good job!

My other 1 is just personal one for my dead friend really, didn't hurt and was done quite quick. Its basically his name with 88-07 underneath it

I want a massive design across my arms & chest or torso but I know I'll get bored of it and it will look crap when I get older so I'm a bit unsure. They'll just end up looking tacky

I really want one but Idk what of!

:joker:

Surely though you'd not want tattoos when you're older? Like OAP's ages.

yeah but if you think like that all the time, you wouldnt do half the stuff you do now.

Why not do something now because in 50 YEARS or so you wont like it?
However Id only want a relatively small one, which has some meaning and on my back up near a shoulder, so you wouldnt really see it unless showing it off anyway.

I suppose ye. But they'd go all wrinkly like with your skin D: Know I'd hate it.

Because you'd be embarrassed maybe?

I don't know, but if I see old people with tattoos I think it's vile. Makes them look a rough mess.

thats why I want a small one stace hehe x

Haha yeah :p

Just depends what and how many you get. Id only want the 1 myself if I were to get a tattoo.

People who have tattoos all over must REALLY regret it as they age though, they look a mess as it is, imagine when theyre tattoos all wrinkle. :shocked:
Will look like theyve just been scribbled on all over!
