^ Lots of places. You want the location to suite what you want to get done so it will flow with your body shape. KWIM.

I'm thinking about on the back of my shoulder, would that be bad because there is not much skin there?

Do you guys think of that before getting one done? Are you going to remove it or something later?

I plan on removing mine. I dont have a need for it anymore. I can't take a pic of it either . Yall have some interesting art work!

If you go to the right person, it shouldn't hurt at all, none of mine did. Even the band on the inside of my arm. My artist has such a soft touch, it's like he's running a ball-point pen over my skin. When I got my stomach done I had to be held down because it tickled so much I could not stay still (if something hurts, you can wince off the pain but if it tickles, there is nothing you can do to stay still). Depending on what you get, you can hide anything. In a t-shirt and jeans you can't see mine, most of the people I work for would die if they saw them. LOL I once went to the beach with a friend that I had worked with who just about fell over when I took off my beach dress and stood there in my bikini-she just kept staring and saying, "get out of here, you do not have a tattoo let alone those tattoos." She said that after working with me for 2 years, I was the last person she would have expected to have a single tattoo but just about my whole body...shocking! LOL

Thank you! That was just the kind of answer I was looking for! The one thing that was putting me off about getting one was the pain factor. I don't really mind needles or anything, but I just didn't like the thought of sitting there with someone digging into my skin and if it hurt there was nothing I could do about it. I think I'm def. gonna do it!

Thanks, that's great to hear because I was worried it would have a balloon affect.. Notice how the pictures never look the same after you let the air out? Lol.

I have to hide mine so I got it on my hip, and it didn't hurt at all.. just like BrodiesLVMama said, if the tattoo artist knows what he/she is doing it shouldn't hurt.. I was told the ones that sting a little are the ones that are on the bone, esp the spine.

To be honest my tattoo hurt a LOT less than even a bikini wax

I guess I get to go first again, since I'm starting this! Mine is on my right outside ankle. It's a violin that I first got 9 years ago. I took up the violin 12 years ago and always wanted a tattoo, so this was a natural choice for me. I was never very happy with the work the tattooist did, so back in May I finally got it re-done. Here's the new 'too. Ick! I hate this picture of my leg. It's not that big, just the effects of the close-up lens.

you're tat is very pretty i love the details.

[Pursefreak25]

I could've got one as soon as i turn 18 but i was too afraid of the needle. But now that im 25 i want one. And i want something small and i want it on my foot. I wand a heart actually a tribal heart.Im going to get it soon.lol!

[spacytracy]

I currently have 6 and I'm getting another in Vegas in April!! YAY!

3 - ankles: moon, hearts (want removed), rose (want removed)
1 - bikini: sun (it's colored now and want to redo it black)
1- back of neck: congi symbol for love (ai)
1 - lower back: cross

new one will be on my wrist - butterfly

I actually only like 3 of them, would love to redo one and remove the other two.

[seahorseinstripes]

just make my first tattoo, and it's a seahorse LOL
i was only going to the artist to check on the drawings i want to do in the back of my arm, and it's quite big and detailed.
but then i decided that i would make 1 small tattoo to know how it felt. and suprisingly, it doesn't hurt at all and yes, it's not as big as it seems, i have very small wrist
teh artist was wondering that i was so relaxed and making sure if it hurt or not. and i said, don't worry, it doesn't hurt at all.
i was thinking it would hurt sooo much that the "pain" when i finally did is like nothing to teh pain i imagined LOL
def. going to make more soon!

[pukasonqo]

i've got two: a sacred heart (because of my two kids are under his care and especially as a thanksgiving as my daughter survived two open heart surgeries) in the right shoulder (back) and one that reads: sic transit gloria mundi ("thus passes the glory of the world"a reminder on the fragility of life and material things) on the lower back. planning to get: hommo homini lupus (man is the wolf of man)somewhere...as a bracelet on my wrist?
funnily the sacred heart wiht all its colours didn't hurt! the lettering did a bit!

[gucci fan]

none here.

All I would say about getting one done on your wrist is maybe get a temporary one about the same size as the one you want and try it out first. I wanted one on the inside of my wrist but when I put a temporary one on after a few hours it was all I could see and I scrubbed it off. I'm so glad I didn't get one done, I know I would have regretted it.

You probably won't regret it but its a good idea to try.

I had my first tattoo done 3 weeks ago and I LOVE IT. I've wanted one for the last 5 years, since I had my son.

Its of 3 stars on my lower back (similar to Victoria Beckham's) 1 for my husband, and 1 for each of my two children.

Also, because I have just done some counselling to get over a problem in my childhood and also lost 4 stone they represent Past, Present and Future.

Looking at them in the photo I think I want something else done to them actually although my hubby loves them. What do you think?
