What do you think of tatoos?

What I think about tattoos is that it looks dirty especially for tattoos on the ladies. I will never get one even a scratch of tattoo. I do not have any tattoos in my body and I never want to get one. It will just make me feel like an ex-convict.

The art of tattoo always fascinate me, but i believe it is somewhat painful yet they say it is addictive. I really want one but my parents won't let me. No offense to those who have tattoo but here in our country, tattoo is most likely to be found to ex-con. My parents don't want other people get the impression that they have an ex-con son. But i really really want one. Maybe someday when the cats are away and the mouse can play.

I realy don't care much for them on ether men or women. This could be because I'm an old fuddy duddy. But i thinl that some of the young women that get them will regret it when gravity start taking it's toll. They will be saging look droopy some day.

I dont have one but always wanted one but like you not sure of that darn needle Loved the ones my hubby had. Matter of fact thats some of what drawed me to him lol

i absolutely ADORE tattoos. i think that if they are done well and have meaing to the person they are abolutely beautiful. i currently do not have one, but that is only because i am not well enoguh to get one. As soon as i AM well enough, you bet i will be getting them! i was supposed to get my first one the weekend after i got hurt. i never made it.

I like tattoos and I currently have two but I think that eventually I will get some more. Both of mine are located on my spinal cord area. My parents and my husband have tattoos as well and I actually got my first tattoo with my dad getting his last one. I guess you could say it was a family affair.

hi luintaurien , personally i think that tatoo is good to show one's personality through art,if only in the body.i don't think your sister has done a wrong thing but the right one reflecting her personality. yes i too have a tatoo and it symbolises two doves flying representing freedom and love i possess for my loved one. you should too go for a tatoo of your choice.it does no harm if done from a reliable shop

I do not have any. They were not so much in fashion when I was younger, it was only sailors and bikers that had them. The ones I have seen on my family are quite beautiful and actually look like attractive artwork.

I love them. at the moment I have one, and it's really beautiful. I designed it myself and every time I see it I love it. my partner has a really beautiful, large, intricate, brightly coloured phoenix on one arm, and I love that one too. some phoenixes I don't like, but this one has so many colours. as well as reds and oranges and yellows there are purples, blues, greens and so on. it's stunning. it took 4 hours. mine is a bat on my lower back, but very stylised, rather like gothic architechture. I want at least 2 more. a borage flower on my hip and an anklet of moonphases, done quite pale so it is very subtle.

i think people just want some individuality. To make a difference, they just showing their personality. And some of us think when we see people with tatoos their kind of wild and weird, but theres no truth to that, wild and weird are in the way they think, not the way of their actions. Me, i admit im pretty afraid of the people with large tatoos because they look like they are comes from jail, but as i grow old i realized people are all different, and i learned to respect them, but i still used to avoid them...haha.

I like tatoos my son in-law has a tatoo that starts on his right wrist and goes clear up his arm to his chest to his left wrist. It is colored and has a tiger and a dragon. He has flowers and other things on it. I like all the art work. I have to wonder of the cost of the tatoo. My daughter and his mother loves the artwork and loves the tats.

I think that some tattoo artists make true art works of art, I like them individually, maybe because I'm studying graphic design and love drawings, picture and stuff like that, but the impression I get when I see someone covered from head to toe with tattoos is that they're dirty... like when someone is painting and get paint all over that they have to wash out. So I guess I can admire the drawing, coloring and shading of a determined tattoo, but tattooing every single inch of the skin is over-doing it. I wouldn't tattoo myself, not even one tatto, mostly because I like to change and a tatto is something permanent that you can only get rid off with an expensive procedure, I love art but I don't like to see the same thing day after day, that's why I wouldn't do it (I even change my desktop wallpaper several times a day).

Tattoos are really not that unbareable to get! Its actually like a tingly, scratchy feeling. Well at least to me it is! I love tattoos but I DO feel that if you get one, it should be something that is VERY meaningful to you and always will be. After all that will stay with you forever, unless you pay the outrageous amount of money to try n get it removed! I currently have just one tattoo and plan on maybe one or two more. I myself also have one on my lower middle back. It is of the hawaiian islands because that is where I am from, that is my home and always will be, no matter where I end up in this world! Thats my take on it.

For me,tattoo is a waste of money and it is irrational.Why spend money to get torture? I really can't understand it.

it is nice to look at tattoes, it is a work of art! it may look cool to wear one nowadays unlike the old days because it means you are not to be trusted.what the guys who has tattoes does not want to admit is that they will get sick and tired of it after a while, believe me they will not admit that! it is like looking at a very nice picture or a poster for a very long time and that's all you see,now tell me ,do you still want to look at it? most of them would love to take it off after a while but since it is a permanent mark then they don't have any choice but to like it whether they want it or not.no offense to those who has tattoes,this just the reality i have witnessed with a lot of friends who has one.

Well personaly I don't like tatoos because they can't be removed. But if it isn't my skin I don't have to be woried :P. I think is nice for her if it suits heyr well. It makes a person more cool and it takes guts to make a tatoo so think yout sister was very courajous.

I don't have a tatoo and I don't like tatoos. I think it can be dangerous because there is a certain probability to be infected by the needles used to do the tatoo.Then it's difficult to cancel them.

I do not have any now, but I have think about it several times. But finally I find it is a difficult thing. What I like now may be what I hate in the future, but tatoo will last my whole life. :)

Hey, I love them. I have one I will not lie it was painful, but so worth it. I think it is something that should be decided very carefully and not something to just do on a whim. Or not entirely on a whim. You want to remember you will have this for the rest of your life (although, you can have them removed now, but they don't look so great when you do that). So, think about it and make sure it is what you really want and would like on your body.

I don't have any tatoos - yet. *lol* My husband doesn't want me to have any tatoos done, he thinks it makes you look like a convict. I don't like tatoos on faces and necks but for the rest I think it's up to the one who wants it. I wouldn't mind having a small tatoo somewhere only my husband could see but he wouldn't accept me going to a male tatoo artist. *lol* He's a bit jealous. One thing that scares me about tatoos is that people seem to go to any person who says he knows how to do it without checking if he really does know how to do it and if he knows how to do it in a safe way. You could get a lot of infections and illnesses if he's not taking the right measures. After all, your blood will be exposed and you could get a lot of diseases that way....
