Guest Jar Jar D'oh! Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 Hey guys! (Tried the SB, ran out of patience lolz ) So I'm trying to figure out the possible ill-effects of getting a tat done, does anyone have any know how? OR do you have one and can you tell me about you experience or pass on some advice? Thanks! All posts are appreciated (but spam obv.. xP) Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Jar Jar D'oh! Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 What are you thinking of getting?Something meaningful and something tribal prolly. But both small. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaymi Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 well the only ill-effects of tats that i know of is if you have a skin condition where broken skin regrows into keloids then the whole tat can become septic.. oh and if you're overweight and you get a tat then lose weight the tat becomes all saggy and funny looking. My experiece..its bloody painful~!! but the after effects are beautiful as long as you don't regret getting the tat then you'll love it. P.S. getting tats are addictive, just saying hope this kinda helped "/ Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CourtneyWhite Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 Something meaningful and something tribal prolly. But both small.Definitely draw it out and plan it and all that beforehand, and make sure it's something that you won't regret or anything because I've heard that tattoo removal sucks. Also, I want to see the design! I love tattoos haha and am thinking of getting three or four myself. When I turn 18... Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Award Winning Boss Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 I don't like tattoos (unless you're vanessa lake, but you aren't ) but that's irrelevant I wouldn't recommend something that looks like it could be temporary (like the name of a girlfriend or something... or a dog. I wouldn't even recommend mum or dad because they might appreciate the thought but not the tattoo ... if that makes sense) Design it before hand also. if It's a saying that's apparently meaningful to you make sure you know what it means if It's in a different language. It'd be funny of you got something that translated into something completely different than its intention. Where will you have it? If you can't get a design just use my profile picture and get it on your shoulder ... you'll be drowning in them ladies True story Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I really haven't planned the design, I'll leave that to the tattoo artist most probably... well the only ill-effects of tats that i know of is if you have a skin condition where broken skin regrows into keloids then the whole tat can become septic.. oh and if you're overweight and you get a tat then lose weight the tat becomes all saggy and funny looking.

Jaymi Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 haha i've got 2 but of course my parents don't know because they disapprove of such things but they're small ones. i agree with everyones else either sketch it out or find something on google that looks somewhat like the one you want and you can just ask the tattoo artist to change it according to your tastes...thats what i did=) and they come up wiht much better ideas lol but my advice..dont get it in a place where theres a lot of bone e.g. your ribs.. it hurts more..learnt that the hard way. lol. when you planning on getting it done?

Guest Jar Jar D'oh! Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 Lol, my abdominal region is really well cut so I'm thinking canning my plans of getting it on the hip after the whole bone insight... :/ I think wings on my calves would be my next alternative or else...erm..tribal on bicep if all fails :'D I think that always looks good.

Jaymi Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 ahh well you're a guy im sure you can withstand enough pain to get it done on your hip lol take pain killers and ask the tattoo artist to use a numbing cream if you're so scared of pain but yes i agree tribal on the biceps always look good just make a good decision because its permanent (unless you want laser removal which is more painful than getting the actual tat so i've heard) Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
emmanem Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 I gave one to myself (safely. With a sewing needle. Gosh.) And it didn't hurt and I love it! Make sure its something you really really want on your skin forever first though. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IB Smacher Glau Posted February 25, 2012 Report Share Posted February 25, 2012 Get a tattoo of your candidate number do you wont forget it 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andyboi Posted March 2, 2012 Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 Just don't get it on your belly that's the worst place to get it because when you get older, you'll get fatter and then the skin will sag and the tattoo won't look the same. You should get a tramp stamp Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Akayuki + Lucifel Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 I gave one to myself (safely. With a sewing needle. Gosh.) And it didn't hurt and I love it! Make sure its something you really really want on your skin forever first though. Respect, I tried that the other week, tried to numb the skin with ice - ended up getting some mild frostbite as I had it n for too long I gave one to myself (safely. With a sewing needle. Gosh.) And it didn't hurt and I love it! Make sure its something you really really want on your skin forever first though. Haha, right!! I don't buy that. Getting over yourself to push the needle deep enough is the hardest part. Also general advice: prepare your skin by applying moisturising cream every day, that way the skin will take up the colour much better. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
