Q. I am 18 and I want to get a small tattoo somewhere. I'm thinking something like a kanji symbol or maybe even a word in Engish, just something small. Where is a good, cute place to get something like this, that wouldn't be too painful?
Also, and ideas for the actual tattoo would be appreciated!
I AM PLANNING ON GETTING THE KANJI OR WORD TO SAY 'HOPE' OR AT LEAST SOMETHING RELATED TO IT, BECAUSE THAT IS MY MOM'S NAME. NOT A POINTLESS TATTOO. ALSO, I WANT IT TO BE SOMEWHERE I CAN HIDE EASILY, BUT SHOW WHEN I WANT TO!
A. I wasn't planning on answering this, just gathering ideas for how people think/feel about visible tattoos. But I had to answer after some of these ridiculous answers.
First of all, under your arm aka wrist is painful and its hard to hide! Hello, do you have a summer where you live? It will always be visible. Your ankle or top of foot are easy places to place a tattoo and hide if need be. There are definite times in summer you might want to wear socks/shoes and could easily hide it. Your stomach, while painful near any bones (ribs/hips) is hide-able as well. That is where I put mine. It rarely shows and is very personal this way.
The wrist is a bad place for several reasons, many of which are dated and, personally I believe, are unfair and stereotypical. However this is a big decision and I will tell you them anyway so you are completely informed. People "out there" look down on women with visible tattoos. How do I know? I was just told today, by my family, that "people with tattoos are living on the fringe, not main stream society." So please be aware of the many people who will see a visible tattoo and right away think they know what "type" of person you are, even before they talk to you.
I too would love to get a wrist tattoo, but for now, as I am about to enter into the health care profession, I think instead I will place it on top of my foot. Easy to hide or show if I wish!
I also urge you to NOT place it on your neck. Think of your wedding dress, other people's weddings that you may be in, possible places of employment who actually ban tattoos! I also believe a neck tattoo would be really painful.
And a word such as HOPE, being your Mom's name but also a inspirational word alone, I myself would prefer that in a place that I could read it as well. Also, if just the word Hope seems plain, try dressing it up in a fancy font, or having the artist make something up for you. They could even make it so it reads HOPE upside down as well as right side up. I think its an anagram? Maybe, not sure of the word.
Lastly, please do your research and pick a tattoo artist you know, or have thoroughly researched their work and experience. Don't just go for the cheapest price. You pay for what you get- quality can be more expensive, but not always the MOST expensive. Good luck!
I wanted a tattoo on my inner forearm, men what do you think?
Q. an ambigram on my inner top forearm of "regret" then when u look at it upside down it says "nothing" what do you think?!?!?! i think regret nothing is very meaningful and to have it done in ambigram would be awesome!!!! just that im a teacher....then i no imma have to wear long sleeves...but thats not tooo much of a problem. also how do u MEN think about women who have tattoos in there forearms?????
4 hours ago - 4 days left to answer. also, i dont mind buying some concealer to cover up the tattoo....the ambigram is in cursive sooo it looks really feminine to it as oppose to it lookn manly, because alot of ambigrams have large bulky ganster lookn fonts...would i be looked at as trashy???? and for work, if i dont wear a long sleeve, or concealer on it, i dont mind wearing one of those wrist bands.
A. Going strictly from my personal opinion. Beautiful women don't have tattoos. Sexy lusty women have tattoos to advertise their rebellion. Ugly women have tattoos to get your attention off them and on something else.
I view tattoos as a sign that the person lacks self-respect.
