Thread: Tattoo's

Anyone here into tattoo's? I love tat's, have some myself, there quite old though. I would love some new stuff but just dont have the money at the moment. I have done some tattooing myself but I'm no Armi James ............. lol.

I had my first tattoo last summer at the grand age of 49 a little cat on the back of the shoulder. I have never really liked them in the past but decided to get one done. I have now decided to get some cat paw prints up my back....xx

Welcome to the club .................... lol

I have 4 little ones.

The first a little bird on my shoulder..had that done at 18. Second one I got done whilst on holiday in Greece....a chnese symbol (meaning woamn..only small though, thats on the top of my right arm. Third one is my finace's name Mark on my left arm (top) and my last one is my fave..3 mauve flowers on a stalk with green leaves..on my inner wrist! That hurt like hell lol!

Yeah the inner wrist does hurt, amongst other places ..............lol.

I have 8, getting number 9 in July. I love them!

I love tat's But am always of mind about where they are.. as to being able to be hidden if I want

So.. I have a unicorn (small) on my upper arm (right)
A celtic knot/pentacle on my lower back - that took a while to do as it's intricate.
and a kind of celtic knot that goes across the base of my neck with flowers in it

I have thought about getting my unicorn covered with something more intricate - but perhaps still a unicorn just bigger and nicer, the design is small was in a bit of a crap tattooist who only wanted to do what was on the board, the face isn't great and annoys me! lol it was a long time ago though and was my first 'tester'

I'd love a small design on my inner wrist too but am worried over the pain. Have always been fine with the pain but can't help wondering if I'm wise on the hand Also whether i'll regret it being visable.

I'd love another tat for sure though I watch LA Ink all the time, and London Ink sometimes on sky and love them though some of the tattoo's are not to my taste.

I love pagan/celtic tattoo's And don't have a welsh one yet.. we moved to Wales 18 months ago perhaps....

I should say my hubby has quite a few tats, my favourite is his dragon - it's a full top arm piece and has great colouring

Most of my friends have tats too so I guess we'll all match when were old n' grey! lol I'm gonna have purple hair when I'm old so god help the old folks home! lol

I have one on my inner wrist and that didn't really hurt much at all. THe ones of my instep were the ones that hurt the most

i have 2
3 hearts with leaves etc round them on my back near to my right shoulder..i had it done when i was about 34...it was for my 3 boys..but i need to add to it as i have now got a 4th...and on bottom of back i have scroll with hubbies name amd flowers etc round it....i love my tats and have no regrets...but not sure how my 3 hearts will look trying to add a 4th...

adding to a tattoo can look a bit odd due to ink colouring and style of hand I think.. but perhaps another tattoo to resemble the addition would be good

Taz you've got me thinking back on the wrist one now! lol I had pushed it to one side as possibly too painful! maybe not!

Go for it!

I have 2 tattoo's but I want a big one on my back. I saw a great picture of the tree of life and I would love it but I can't find it anywhere now and allthe other pictures I have found of it I son't like.
The tattoo I had on my foot hurt like hell!! lol But the one on the top of my shoulder was fine.
My hubby has had about 30 hours of work done on his back, cost a small fortune but it looks fab and gets lots of comments.

I dont have any tatts....YET! Ive got plans for one on my back, an one on my foot. I love piercings too, ive got my tongue, ears and tragus done, I really want to get an "industrial" done, its a bar accross the top of your ear, i really like it its just trying to convince my OH that it looks good! lol!

I am obsessed with body modification, not just how they look, but the history behind the different styles, the techniques, all of it. I currently only have 2 tattoos (a flower design thats actually hard to describe that I had done in barcelona, and just a flower on the inside of my upper left forearm), and I have been pierced 18 times, although a currently only wear 5 of them (not including ear lobes). Ready?

1. Tragus (ear)
2. Ear (cartalidge)
3. Helix (ear)
4. Conch (ear)
5. 2 x surface piercings around my navel (rejected)
6. 4 x lobe (2 in each)
7. Other tragus
8. High nostril
9. Normal nostril x 2
10. Sternum (cleavage basically)
11. Vertical labret
12. Left nipple

The only ones I still have are nostrils, labret, nipple and sternum. I am getting my first big tattoo for my 21st

Kerrypants, where is high nostril?
My step daughter has loads of piercings too. I am thinking about my sternum and the space between my thumb and finger.
I love the old style tattoos, like the 50's designs. I am now thinking about getting a 50's pin up girl on the side of my claf.
