Hahaha I don't even use that joke anymore lol but seriously I don't have any and really contemplating getting one or not. I'm afraid once I'll get it I'll hate it and then won't be able to get rid of it even though I know I can obviously lol. I don't know what to do IP: Logged |

The word freedom in arabic. It's so beautifully written and freedom is also a very important word for me and I'm thinking about getting it on my upper right side IP: Logged |

I just feel so pure. Im not saying that people who have tattoos aren't its just that I'm afraid of being like everyone else. I strive to be different and think that I'm a very different individual and once I do this I won't be anymore. Hope that makes sense IP: Logged |

Only do it if you are absolutely sure. Many have tatts to regret it later on in life.I have three and each one has a very deep, special meaning to me. Also make sure that you're happy with the colors (if any), design and tattoo artist. You can always have a temporary one to test the waters before deciding whether you a permanent one. IP: Logged |

Yep, some lasers leave a scar. Someone once described it as been cooked alive. Not sure how much truth is in that..IP: Logged |

I think it depends on the colour, they like green i think and black, as they are the easiest to remove, and forgot which colors are hard. 3? i hope they aren't on the bony places, i feel in pain when i see them on peoples ankles lol.i wanted a tattoo a few years ago, was even checking the tattoo artists conferences in Europe to make sure it is a real talented guy....but then i backed off. the fact that so many years later i still think of this and feel it's already 'in my inside' just tells me if it means a lot to you, you don't need it on your skin to. also i hear it is addictive, one will never be enough once you get started!

From experience, the bony places where not painful( when getting a tatt) but the meaty bits were! It also depends on one's pain tolerance. Many say, "oh, it doesn't hurt", but honestly mine did. The pain subsides immediately when they're done though.True, you don't need it on your skin for it to be meaning, yet we're all different with how we express that part of us. IP: Logged |

Good to know it doesn't hurt that much eventually, and that i didn't do it as i wasn't planning it on any bony place and also true we all express it differently. to the OP if you have a design in mind, how long have you had it in mind for, just to be sure you really want it? otherwise if this isn't clear, then the answer is just don't do it.

If you're not sure or if you have doubts, don't do it. The removal of tattoos can be painful and costly. Btw, the tat you described sounds nice. It sounds ... philosophical, you know. Lol I have one on my shoulder blades, it's in my birth language and it means "I will love you until the end of time". I got it when I turned 18, I love it but I think it sounds soooo sappy hahaha.

I've been told that where I plan to get it is gonna hurt the worst lol so not to excited about that but I've thought about this for some time now. It would be very meaningful for me and its so beautiful. Thank you for your advice. I'm definitely not gonna rush getting it done until I'm ready for it so thank you
