I like tattoos on guys, but for me I don't want one. I had the idea of one for a while... I figured that when I got older I would hate it, though. And it can affect jobs if you're not careful...
Tattoos: Who has them? Who wants them? Who hates them?

I love how tattoos look on some people, but I'll probably never get one myself.
04/03/2011
I don't have a tattoo yet because I keep spending my body art cash on surface piercing projects.
04/03/2011
I don't love all tattoos. There's some bad ones out there.
04/03/2011
I have one so far and plan on getting another. The new one will be based on a couple of M.C. Escher's illustrations.
04/03/2011
I really want one, white ink.
05/09/2011
Have them, love them, and want more
05/09/2011
I have a small teal heart on my chest, I do want a cartoon baby devil with a halo, this I want above the butt cheek. I also want a portrait done of my oldest son to be placed on my shoulder. Thats way he will be watching my back from heaven.

I used to really want one (or some!) of my own, but the personal appeal has faded. I've seen some -gorgeous- ink on other people though.
If I did get one now it'd be something tiny and silly, like a comma added to one of my freckles so that it became a semi-colon. I'm not sure I want to permanently alter my body for sake of silliness though

I have 11 at the moment. I love tattoos and would have many more if I had the money

I am very particular about tattoos. I think they should represent something, have real meaning to them. I wouldn't say I love or hate them though. I love my tattoo and the meaning behind it and i'm having something added on to it very soon because it has serious definition to me. I don't think their sexy or anything, but I find the art or meaning behind them to be highly interesting. Most people just get them just to have them. That part, I don't understand.

I like tattoos. Want one for myself, but just haven't found the right one. They need to have a story for me.
One thing, though. I'm not a fan of, as Tiger suggested in the original post, getting writing done in your non-native language. First, you don't know if it says what it's supposed to say. Unless you design it yourself, and have it verified by a native speaker, there's no telling what it'd say. Second, as I've said, I prefer there to be a story, a link. Unless you've adopted yourself into that culture, or they've adopted you, then there isn't much of a link.

So, I thought it would be fun to see who has tattoos out there. Or not.
Have fun and do tell all. What, Where, Why all that good stuff. less

White ink is gorgeous, but it gets absorbed, if you are Caucasian. My Man has had the head of his eagle and the white stripes on the shield the eagle is holding redone over adn over (he has an American Eagle with a Stars and Stripes shield, with USA under it) and the two artists who have worked on it keep telling him, "White ink doesn't last on a white boy." LOL! He's had white parts of his tattoos redone several times, and it always fades or absorbs.

I don't know all the color issues, but my daughter has a Sailor's Luck tattoo, and she has had to have the red redone several times. Some inks don't last on some people. I don't know why.
If you are darker skinned, white ink is less likely to be absorbed and will show up better.
But, I do like the look of white ink.
06/24/2011
I have one and I want more. I love tattoos. I want a big back piece but I can't afford it right now.
06/25/2011
I don't have any, and I wouldn't get one. I'm too fickle--what I like now, I'll probably regret in a few years, lol. I don't have an opinion either way for other people. I do enjoy seeing ridiculously tacky tattoos, though (yeah, I can be a mean girl).

I have one on my ribs that says "Just breathe" with a purple awareness ribbon between the two letters. It's in memory of my little sister who passed away from Cystic Fibrosis when she was 11. I got it almost a yr ago on her birthday after I turned 18. I plan on getting another one this summer after I come back from a vacation. I love tattoos! My boyfriend loves them too!

08/03/2011
I like well-done, artistic tattoos. I've considered some poetry, but am not solid enough in my decision to go get a tattoo right now.
08/04/2011
I recently got my first, it's a keyhole between my shoulder blades
08/04/2011
Don't have any, don't mind them... want one, but can't decide on something to keep "forever."

A small 1 is ok but it looks cheap when someone is covered in them
08/19/2011
i love them , i wanna get one BUT im not fond of needles =(
08/20/2011
I love tattoos and I cant wait to get more.
08/20/2011
Don't have, but I want. Sometimes love them, but a lot of cheap ink has me determined that when I go under the needle it'll be to the right artist.
08/20/2011
I have three and though I do want more two of the ones I have I really wish I could erase off of me with a magic eraser, lol. They're not conected with anything I'm just bored with them. ( lol, yeah I know, should've thought about that before I made them permanent. )
08/20/2011
I don't have any yet, but I love them and plan on getting one soon!

Growing up, I thought tattoos were stupid.
Then for some reason (once I was on my own), I had this desire to get one. I designed my first tattoo (on my upper back, along the part of my spine that sticks out from scoliosis) as homage to my grandparents who raised me. It is, by far, the prettiest 'simple' tattoo I have ever seen and have gotten nothing but compliments for it.
After that, I became addicted and when I was visiting my dad for the first time, we had "daddy/daughter time" which consisted of him tattooing me. I decided on an "S" on the inside of my left ankle. "S" for the one name that hadn't caused me problems... yet.
I have been craving more since but haven't had the money to do so. My next tattoo is already designed though. It's 4 calla lilies (favorite flower) in a bunch, with my mantra written in Tibeten language on one side. Each lily stands for someone (besides my grandparents) whom made an impact in my life. There will also be room to do more lilies as more people come into my life that deserve them.

Don't have any tattoos. Don't really LOVE them, but don't have anything against them.
