Do you have a tattoo?

... if so what is it and where is it.

If you don't have one, would you ever get one? Why or why not?

The first thing I drew was bunnies. Bunnies, bunnies, bunnies!!! But don't think I want one as a tattoo. hmm

I told my daughter a few years ago that I was going to let the hairs on my big toes grow and have seals tattooed on my toes and the hairs would be their whiskers...then I could wiggle my toes and their whiskers would twitch. You should have seen the look on her face. She actually believed me!! That's my dry humor. Sometimes I can't help myself.

The first drawing I made was mermaid, mermaid. I was always fascinated with mermaid. TheI last drawing I made was in 7th grade, when all of sudden the class became eerily quiet. A topless female mermaid nonetheless Lol.

@winfia,well being I was only 15 years old I knew she would'nt be to happy so I did'nt let her see it for the longest,then one day she caught me with my shirt off.She was'nt to happy but I think the only reason I did'nt get my ass beat was because it did say MOM.After all these years I still love it because of how much I do love her,she's been my best friend and supporter forever,she never gave up on me when a lot of people did.

Butterfly on outer left ankle with the Chinese symbol for happiness as the body. At the time, I felt that "happiness can be as elusive as a butterfly". 2003.
3 Butterflies on the left side of my back, staggered, faery-tale wings. The names of my sons make up the three bodies (I was on a roll with the meaningful bodies).
Right shoulder has a tribal image of a man and woman making love. Honestly, I thought they were dancing. Probably should have passed on that one; what's done is done.
Would I do them again? I'm not sure. Advice? NEVER PUT THE NAME OF A BF OR GF OR SPOUSE on your body in permanent ink!

I love the idea of working the kids' names into the design. I am thinking of something tribal - perhaps Aztec-style, since our Mexico abode is in Aztec-lands.

commented 12 years ago

Bob/PKB

That sounds very cool; there are so many different symbols. Mine was found when my friend's daughter was browsing through them on the internet. It just struck me immediately as being "just nice". It seemed to resonate with love. It turns out that is exactly what it was! Please let us see what you decide!

commented 12 years ago

Bob/PKB

I worked with a woman who had several butterflies on her arms and wanted to do something with her children's names. I think it was my idea (?) but who cares. My children will always be mine, come hell or high water (and we've had a good deal of both).

Tat on wrist is my fav so far, but you know how it won't look good for job interview... Not to mention I get hyperventilate easily when it comes to needle, plus all that sensitive trigger points from my fibromyalgia n' myofacial are not helping either.

No, I'd never get a tatoo. My sister had her lips tattooed or painted pink so she wouldn't have to wear lipstick. Guess, what? she now has a cancer on her lip which needs to be removed by plastic surgeon. The red or pink tattoo colour can be cancer causing.
