I am planning on getting a tattoo of my grandfathers signature over my heart, not really big, maybe 1x6in or there abouts. But when I have him write it out for me, how large should he do it so the tattoo artist will be able to make an exact copy. Hopefully that makes sense. Thanks!

What type of tattoo should I get and where?

I am fixing to turn 18 and I am contemplating getting a tattoo. But I want it to mean something. I want it to represent what I have been through in my life (self-injury, rape, bulimia). Also I need to know where would be the best place to put it since I am going into Air Force ROTC. What do you think?
Its to represent my moving past and being stronger.

Ok, this might seem such a strange question (well, the second part at least) but I am planning on getting a tattoo in the future and I have no idea how much the tip should be. Also, is it appropriate to hand the cash for the tip directly to the artist them self or should it be given to the person (usually an intern) who rings the total cost up? Advice is greatly appreciated! Much thanks! :)

I’ve been thinking about getting a tattoo for a couple years now but I was always wondering if certain places for tattoos would hurt more than others. I want to get a tattoo on my right shoulder blade but I don’t know if it would be unbearably painful or not. Any advice or insight?

my tattoo ideas?

so i’m getting a tattoo for my 18th birthday (in march) and i have a few ideas but i’m not sure what i should get first.

my first one i want to get is indian larry’s question mark with the wings http://www.indianlarry.com/Merchant2/graphics/00000001/Patch_HR.jpg
with a quote around the question mark that says "the next phase is going to transpire the way it is supposed to transpire"

or i want to get a Metallica themed tattoo, probably the ninja star design.

my friend lyndsey and i want to get 2008 (probably with a nautical star) on the backs of our necks because that’s when we’re going to graduate high school.

and i want to get an angel with with the word strength.

i just can’t decide which one i should get first or where to put it. , except i won’t get the 2008 one first because i’m going to wait until lynz turns 18.

i’m thinking about the question mark on my ankle or calf.

any suggestions?
i’ve been thinking about these tats for a long time.
or for the indian larry tattoo i might just have "indian larry" and 1949-2004
yeah, the 2008 idea was my friend’s idea. i was thinking about just like a nautical star with the school colors. just something to represent that hey, we made it.

I am planning on getting my first tattoo at the beginning of summer, but I am doing the research on tattoo places and artists now. I live near Stockton, CA. Any advice or tips would be great! Thanks!
I’d just like to add that I do not want anyone to tell me not to get a tattoo. If that’s the way that you feel, keep your opinions to yourself. I asked for advice and tips pertaining to my specific question, not to whether getting a tattoo is a good idea.

I’m planning on getting a tattoo there, but I’d like to know what the pain level is. And don’t give me any "Don’t get a tattoo cause when your 80 years old you’ll die hating yourself" I have a high pain tolerance, and telling me the amount of pain will not stop me from getting the tattoo. I’m just curious.

A friend of mine is pretty adamant on getting a tattoo of a snake wrapping around her body from her foot to her lower back. After the snake ends, a phoenix coming out of the snake covers the rest of her back. This is a pretty big tattoo. How much would such a tattoo cost and how long would it take? How painful would you say it would be?

I’m planning on getting a tattoo on my side right around the hip bone area. (a little below the belt line) Anyways, I don’t want to get ink all over my clothes, nor can I walk around without pants on seeing as I still live with my anti-tattoo parents who will conveniently not know about my tattoo. My question is how long will I be able to keep it covered during the day and night to protect the tattoo and my clothes. Thanks!!!

How many different tattoo styles are there?

I am currently keeping a journal about tattoos and artists. I know that there are countless styles of tattoos but if you could provide some lists or examples it would be great! I want to know as much as i can about tattoos and tattoo art before i think any further on getting a tattoo of my own.

I was thinking about getting a tattoo in memory of my grandmother, who passed away few yrs ago. She was an evangelist, so I want something relevant to anything spiritual and tasteful. I want it on my left shoulder, so is that area more or less painful? Any suggestions of what I can get? This is my first tattoo ever!

What do you think about my tattoo?

I’m 16 and my parents are finally cool with me getting a tattoo. I’ve picked one out that has a ton of religious meaning to me, and I absolutely love it. Now, I’m looking at all the detail and can tell it’s gonna be expensive, can anyone give me a rough estimate on how much this is going to cost me? I know you guys can’t give a 100% perfect price, but an estimate would be wonderful. Also, what are your guy’s opinions on this tattoo? Tell me what you think, thanks!

What would happen to your tattoo if you lost weight?

I’m planning on getting a tattoo on the right side of my lower back. I was wondering if I lose around 30lbs, will it noticeably affect the tattoo?

Is a tattoo with a cross religious discrimination?

I am looking into getting a tattoo in memory of my grandparents who were killed. The tattoo that i am looking at has a cross. I also am planning on entering the air force with hopes of becoming a fighter pilot. In the air force’s tattoo policy it says that tattoos that display religious discrimination are prohibited. I would like to know if a cross is considered to be a symbol of religious discrimination. Is it?

Tattoo…?

Why are you looking for questions about tattoos if you don’t like them? If someone’s asking a legitimate question about getting a tattoo they don’t want to hear your BS propoganda. Get over the fact that people are different from you and have different beliefs and interests. If you don’t like tattoos don’t get one and leave the rest of us alone!

Custom tattoo questions?

I’m getting a tattoo soon but I’m a bit confused. I want a custom done but I’m not sure how it works – do I have to draw the tat myself? Does the artist design it for me? Can I take a photo down with me and have a tattoo drawn from that?

I can’t design graphics for toffees so I’m wondering how this works? Thanks!
Thanks for the answers so far. Mace it’s none of your business whether I have tattoos or not so keep your opinions to yourself please.
If it’s a photo it’s not custom? Um… what? I meant a photo I have taken, not one I got off Google Images, lol.
