My first tattoo is a sunflower. I got it when i was 15. Although it looks bad now i don't regret it. I would however like to get it fixed, colored in, add something's. I did do it again i got a butterfly, witch i just got cover and fixed (seams i have very bad luck when it comes to tattoos.) Yet i do want more. A few things for me that say who i am, things i like. But most importantly i want to get a tattoo representing each one of my 3 children. And a tattoo of my grandparents who raised me in there memory.

That sound nice. I am sorry that you keep having to get your tattoos fixed...I know that must be a pain in the butt. What designs have you thought of for your children and grandparents? Thanks for your response and I hope you have a great day!

The first one i got was a puple moon on my foot, i got it when i was 14 and id probably get it again its been with me for so long that its just part of who i am now. I have done it again i have a red maple leaf on my right shoulder blade, an elephant done in a stonework style on my right hip, 5 elephants linked tail to trunk just above my down there hair line (which by the way for all those worried about later pregnancy did not move an iota and i gained a lot for both my kids), also my husband and i got our wedding bands tatooed on for our first anniversary (hes a chef and was scared hed lose his real band when he had to take them off at work). good question thanks +

I like tattoos but I don't have any. I would love small angel wings at the top of my back perhaps with a red heart in the middle made a bit of blood dripping from the bottom. :)

This is my first tattoo, I got it after college when I was working at Uniden in 1996. In this picture http://www.geocities.com/koltrone/tribal.jpg , my friend Arvin did a cover-up just to enhance the design and yes I did it again in my lower back http://www.geocities.com/koltrone/immortal.jpg and I'm thinking of getting the last one *s*

My first tattoo was my 50th birthday present to myself. It is a blue/yellow moon & stars. And, 9 years later it's still ocean blue and yellow, not that old-looking navy stuff. Yeah, I'd do it again, but my doctor would kill me because I don't have a spleen anymore, and infection could occur pretty easily.

Oh wow, that sounds nice...and you better heed the advice of your doctor :). Thanks so much for your response and I hope you have a great day!

I have one tattoo of a cross on my right shoulderblade. I got it when I was 28 (I think). I like it and I am glad I had it done. I will not be getting any more tattoos though because one is enough for me.

That I don't have. Not putting that needle any where near me. My daughter has one and I wouldn't stay to watch her get it. She got it 2 days before her 18th birthday so we had to sign. It was a small barbed wire heart with a rose through it. She would do it again. Just not now. She would have to pay for this one...

LOL, that's funny! As far as the needle goes...I agree with you, I don't know how I managed when I got my tattoo as terrified as I am of needles. Thanks so much for your response and I hope you have a great day!

I have yet to get a tattoo. I do not want to make the wrong choice. Because it is permanent...it would be horrible to get it and then regret it. But I Do plan on getting a tattoo at some point in my life.

My first tatt was on my left shoulder. It's a small rose w/ a butterfly, and I originally got it to cover up scar tissue. I was in my 20's when I had it done, and would do it again. If I had to change anything, it's that I didn't put as much thought into it as I should have.

Sounds nice. As far as not putting much thought into it...do you mean that you would have made it more detailed or changed the tattoo itself? Thanks so much for your response and I hope you have a great day!
