I was just wondering what people on the forum think of tattoos are some people love them and some hate them.

Personally I like them but I could never get one as my parents really hate them :|

Opinions?

[Stacey.]

dont mind them.
they look good.
but too many doesnt.

[Braden]

They look so attractive!

I hate big ones that biker men usually have but other than that, I think there quite lovley to look at

[Ninastar]

Same as you cara. I'm told that if I get one they will kick me out if the house. Pmsl sorry but how sad! It's my body!

[ILoveTRW]

Subtle ones look good

[Jack_]

I'm not really fussed either way, but I don't like people that are covered in them, especially women.

I don't think I could get one myself either, it's the pain that I fear.

[Captain.Remy]

Hell yeah ! It's been an obsession of mine since I was 16. Got my first tattoo at 16, the second one at 18. Also had my first piercing at 15. I am that obsessed that the tattooist I have been to is one of my closest friends.

I don't like people who get tattoos because "it's kool lawl". I believe tattoos should have a personal meaning, something you'll keep forever and means something. But that's just my view after all.
My parents did struggle a bit with it, mostly my mum because my dad has one, but they actually were not surprised because I kept asking them for ages, they knew it wasn't just a trendy thing because my tattoos make a lot of sense, maybe not to others, but to me they do.

i love them both on me and on others i currently have 13 and they all have meanings behind them apart from 2
i'm 26 an my mum still goes nuts when i get new one my dad is cool (but then he has lots himself so cant say much)

[Jords]

Dont mind them, just not too many or ones you would regret when youre older :]

[CaraRawr]

what ones do everyone have?

and yeah i'd only get one if it had a meaning to me, i'd love to get the 30STM triad tattooed on me when i'm older.

[MissKittyFantastico]

Love them, if they are well done and mean something.

[Princess]

A lot of them are lovely but some people can go overboard.

[Ninastar]

Sometimes the can be tacky. I would only want one or two small ones. Either on my lower back, wrist or shoulder.

[Enid]

I have a couple on my chest.

[Princess]

Argeed with everyone saying they should mean something,there's no point to them otherwise. Anyone ever watch LA or Miami Ink? Everyone has a story.

I love them shows

[Callum]

Nay. Not a fan of them, I hate thinking of having a wrist tattoo done. Plus when your older and all wrinkly etc. your not still going to love it are you.

[Enid]

Why should every tattoo need to have a meaning?

[Stu]

I agree with the people who said they should mean something, or at least be thought provoking or humorous in some manner. If I'm getting something under my skin for life, I'll be damned if it's a generic tribal picked out from the wall of the tattoo shop that plenty of other people have.

Now to overcome my fear ...

[GypsyGoth]

Some of them look great. I'd love to get one.

[Braden]

If I were to get a tattoo, I would get it to look at something attractive,not one that means something to me.

[Enid]

It's never as bad as you think it will be. Obviously it depends where. On the bone is pretty painful, but fleshy parts are fine. It actually tickles more than anything.

[Enid]

Well, obviously if you're gonna get something generic or something picked out of the tattoo books, that's pretty dumb. I believe you should only get tats you designed yourself. At least then if it doesn't really necessarily mean something, it is your own art. The body is a blank canvas. Shame to waste it.

Mine on the chest was so easy, I didn't feel anything. However I did feel a bit for the one on my back shoulder because it's right on the bone. But then it's all good, you don't die from it.

My friend tattooist told me the most hurtful places were under the feet and the elbow. I cannot even imagine how it feels like.

But then I believe I will end up with a dozen of them
