I am 17 and I have my arms almost completely full of tattoos and everyone is hounding on me because of them and I dont think there a very big deal.I would like to work at a tattoo shop and serve an apprenaship but they think thats not a very good idea .If all else fails im gonna at some point go into the army so whats the big thing about me getting tattoos because I already have them and I have a back up plan but for those who are yong and want tattoos wait til later save yourself the hassle write back and tell me what you think
hi there!, i completly understand. im also 17 and have full sleeves and i get alot of strange looks one because im a girl too, and not alot of people like tattoos on girls. but dont worrie about the other idiorts and just do what you wanna do. tattoos cant get in the way of any thing u wanna do infact, it helps..........so get more!!!! lol
I have regretted all the tattoos I got before I was 21-22. Luckily I work with great artists who have re-worked or covered all my mistakes. now that Im 30 Im running out of skin and have started pacing myself a lot more. I would suggest not getting too many tattoos too young, not because Im on a moral high horse or anything, but because as you get older you realize just how long you may live and its horrible running out of skin real estate! By the time Im 35 Ill only have the top of one hand and the right side of my neck left!
