i like them on lads, but not too much, i like them on lasses at the bottom of ya back, i want one, im just trying to pluck up the courage, but yea i think a suitable amount, n type n place, for tats is very sexy

*fender.chiq*
August 13th '05, 05:07 PM
I'm not so keen.

But tbh, it just depends on who the person is.

Some people they suit and some people they don't...

Jessicar
August 13th '05, 05:11 PM
Some guys suit them, but some dont really.
Some girls suit them too. I dunno, you just have to look right in them. If you do they can look pretty.

im getting my tattoo sooon n i cant wait i do like tattoos but not to many maybe 2 at the most

August 13th '05, 07:01 PM
I want the Japanese word for piece tattooed on my arm, but other than that I don't really care enough about tattoos to have an opinion. Obviously I wouldn't like a girl to be covered in them, but I wouldn't mind one or two.

Bob!
August 13th '05, 07:29 PM
A small one on a lass is ok, one thats not on show all the time. bottom of the spine is the most popular place i think. thats fine, but if they have too many an in the wrong places then fer me its a turn off, same as too many piercins. As i told nat, it just makes em look like a butch sailor O_o

*fender.chiq*

Mamfy
August 13th '05, 11:42 PM
its nice! does it hurt?:S

I think they look good on the right people, i wouldnt mind having one lil one on the back of my shoulder or the bototm of my spine, but im not that fussed, if i wanted em so bad id use the stick on ones:PLmao

Drunk_druid
August 14th '05, 09:24 AM
bottom of the spine is quite attractive if it suits theperson but having them up the arms etc is a HUGE turnoff...that said some guys must like em

Mamfy
August 14th '05, 11:13 AM
especially when they have their WHOLE body covere with em

Mikhael
August 14th '05, 06:52 PM

~sexy_biatch~
August 19th '05, 06:49 PM
Tatoos are ok. wouldnt have one myself. i wouldnt like the pain!! :(
They look ok. But only in the right places.
Me n becci saw a man the other day and he had them all up his arm and on his cheek! that looked discusting!!

Mamfy
August 19th '05, 06:53 PM
hevence, post a pic when you get it:D

~*~ shefbabe ~*~
August 19th '05, 06:54 PM
i think tatoos are cool on guys aslong as they don't have too many as too many are a total turn off, i've designed one for the bottom of my back just have to have it done :)

i also want one sometime on the top of my back

Jessicar
August 19th '05, 06:54 PM
Yeah i agree that they do have to be in the right places and on the right person.

hevence
August 19th '05, 06:56 PM
will do!!!!
ive gt a pic of what it will look like :)
the pain is meant to feel like a cat scratch!!!

~*~ shefbabe ~*~
August 19th '05, 06:57 PM
yeah this guy i really like has one on top of his arm of a black dragon its cool

~sexy_biatch~
August 19th '05, 07:00 PM
personally i dont like big tatoos.
I think tatoos look nice on your shoulder blade. Bottom of back and ancle..depending on the person!
I like them on you belly...on like one side on the hip.
If i was brave enough to have one i would have it on the bottom of my back or my hip. i wouldnt have it on my shoulder blade as it wont be as easy to cover up!! like if your a bridesmaid or something..

Jessicar
August 19th '05, 07:02 PM
^ yeah thats true
They dont look right when your wearing dresses or something, so youd have to be able to cover it up if you needed to.

hevence
August 19th '05, 07:03 PM
mines going to be at the bottom of my back and its not really that big:)

xxrachxx
August 19th '05, 07:38 PM
i either want one on the top of my thigh... like a rose or something.. and like stars or hearts on the inside of my hip, curving down slightly they look really nice

~sexy_biatch~
August 19th '05, 08:09 PM
^^
Bet that would look nice!

August 27th '05, 06:53 PM
I remember Kelly Osbourne got one on her hip, and it was a little red heart, it looked really pretty..

I don't know what I'll do as I grow up, at the moment I just use henna :P

I have many tattoos and I like having them. They include a backpiece of a faery and a My Little Pony (I've been a horseback rider since I was 11) sleeve.

Tattoos differ from person to person. I've seen some absolutely horrible tattoos and some very flattering ones. My tattoos are all custom and shaped to my body.

No regrets.

Eventually, I want one across the bottom of my back, and one going up one of my hips, lol.

Brianna.
April 3rd '06, 03:58 AM
No, but it would have hurt more to wear a bra and all that jazz. I like it's placement. You can barely see it when I have a low cut shirt on, and you can almost see all of it while I'm in a bikini.

Has it been merged? :/

I've decided on three tattoos now. One inbetween my shoulder blades, one on the lower of my back, and one on my hip. :]

May 1st '06, 08:51 PM
You'd better decide which one you want above all others, cos I bet when you have one, you'll want no more.... :P

Mucho Pain.

Brianna.
May 1st '06, 11:10 PM
That's not true. I have one and I know I want more. Mine didn't hurt at all. It felt like when your hand goes to sleep then it wakes up...that tingly feeling.

And whoever said getting fat tattooed hurts the worst was a liar.

They're really addictive.

I had one when I was about 14/15 and now I want a couple more.

I'd like 'Consilio et Animis' on my back and some stars starting on my wrist, going up in a little curve towards my elbow, though only small, not brash.

June 25th '06, 08:49 PM
i think tht the 1's at the bottom of ur back are sooooo over-used now... they used to look nice when onli a few had them done, now everyones gerrin them done n they're sopooooo un-unique.

i think the new 'area' if u can call it tht, to have a tattoo done is on ur hip, they look well sexier i think. my mate had Tinkerbell on her hip and its sooooo cute lol

I plan on getting one on my lower back, and another on my right boob to match the one on the left. I have so many planned...

One on my foot, one on my neck, another on my boob, one on my back, and possibly one on my wrist/hand.

NATAL!E
June 27th '06, 08:05 PM
I really want two shooting stars on my hips now - one on each.
I think it's pretty much decided as well. And American ink, so they're as bright as possible.

I'm not too sure on anywhere else. But well, whatever I get, will be for me, so I won't have them in obvious places!

I am a 15 year old girl, fancying a lip peircing (on the side)

Guys note: is it attractive on a girl?
turn off or turn on for a girl to have a facial peircing (particularly lip)?

girls feel free to give your opinion too =]

Not as painful as you'd expect. I'm the biggest wimp ever. Dispise the scare I have now though because it grew out! :(

Innamorata
February 22nd '07, 11:36 PM
Yeah, that puts me off. It's just basically bone there though, no flesh, so I imagine lots of pain.

February 27th '07, 03:12 PM
I used to want a lip and nose piercing but now I'm not so sure....hmm I think I'd just stick to ears and nose. Oh I couldn't have my belly button done either, it look'd to painful and this girl in school hers ripped if I had a lip piercing though it would be in the middle under my bottom lip. I don't really like them up on the side no offence..........
EDIT --- I've changed my mind I don't want my nose pierced anymore :(
EDIT --- As far as tatoos are concerned I wouldn't get one...Yeah I would I would get a little star in between my index finger and thumb, maybe as big as 5mm lol. Idk I would just have to see lol :)

I have the left side of my lip done, and I love it. Mine took a while to heal, though.

I've had my nose pierced, my lip was done twice, my belly button was done like...4 times...and my ears. My tounge is pierced, as well.

I have three tattoo's, too. Well...5 if you count the seperate peices.

oh and dude i think that gettin tattoes of random pics you find on the internet isn't as great as when you draw it yourself or it means something important to you. its ok if your not the best artist, they guy can fix it up later on. but you should draw what ever comes out of your mind. then get it tattooed.

I recently had a tattoo done, and while i was there i was told to wash it with warm soapy water and put vaseline on it, but just been told vaseline isnt any good for it. any idea's on what i should put on it?

Vaseline is actually very good to put on top of tattoos because it puts a waterproof film over it which prevents infection, however you need to put something over the vaseline to stop it going everywhere and to stop bacteria growing in the vaseline! cling film works but replace it regularly to keep it sterile and it shouldn't get infected.

I'm getting a tattoo soon.
Does it heart, I heard it does...but then I guess it determines your threshold for pain.
I also heard once you go under the needle you start becoming a addicted to getting tattoos

Lol you don't become addicted, you may like the look of it and decide you want another but its not the actual tattoo that's addictive and yes they do hurt quite alot but its bareable pain that you get used to. I'd start with a small one at first, incase its too much pain and you pull out of a big tattoo once its started.

yeh i was told to put clingfilm over it to help prevent my bra strap rubbing against it directly, iv been told E45 would be good for it aswell or a good antibacterial cream?

it hurt me at first but then i put my mind on something else and moved the pain to my finger that i was biting (and made bleed) it was the outline that hurt the most and where there was more bone - i had mine done on my bk/shoulder. its not ment to be as painful wer theres more fat or something. i dont plan on getting another one anytime soon tho and i dont believe its addictive or anything.
I like the idea of a pink ribbon to show support for breast cancer and sorry to hear about your nan.
