I want to get a tattoo but I have quite a few "beauty marks". Will the ink colour change when you are tattooed over a mole?

I have a dragonfly on my wrist. I think it is too plain/cartoonish. What can I add around it, and to the dragonly itself, to make it look hot?

My g/f has one tattoo on her back and another on her leg. She likes wearing short skirts with halters to show them off in the warm weather. It's a real turn on to me but friends tell me it's not a womanly thing to do. I say if you're proud of them don't be afraid to show it. The outfits are sexy but not slutty.

especially at a young age and MOST especially people who do it in obvious places like their face, how can it NOT occur to you that somewhere down the road on life's journey, you might think-- "hey-- I don't want this thing on me anymore? Now that I have more sense, it looks pretty stupid". Never occur to you that people often, you know, "change" over the years?

I am getting a 3/4 sleeve that will take 3-4 sessions to complete (mostly because of time). Do I tip my artist after each session or after the piece is complete?

Im paying by the session, he is charging me $400 for 5 hours of work to start out. The entire piece will take about 15-20 hours.

Any sugestions on the tip I should give if Im happy with it?

They make it seem like it takes like 15-20mins for full tattoo from outline to color. artists should show how long it actually takes for some of those tattoos.

Im just curious what the overall opinion is on tattoos, Im currently thinking about getting one myself. Still throwing around the idea of it though. If I do I want to get something similiar to the link below. I would also like to get some thoughts on it if I could, for those that do enjoy tattoos is it to much? Im not to big of a fan of alot of random tattoos spread about but always thought something like this would be cool. Any thoughts are appreciated.

Does it sound crazy to have an apprenticeship where you're not allowed to tattoo? The guy who's willing to take me on as an apprentice is charging me 4,500 and I have to be in the shop open to close and do all the normal apprentice stuff. The thing is, I will NOT be allowed to tattoo at all, anyone or even fake skin, untill the money is paid in full. And I will not be taught how to tattoo. I will only be allowed to watch, basically be his shadow. So if I make payments and it's paid in full after two years, thats when I'm allowed to start tattoong. I have to be at the shop scrubbing tubes, helping customers, and all that stuff that whole time though, every day it's open, open to close. When I watch him tattoo he won't even explain what he's doing untill the money is paid in full! Does that Sound unfair?

I've read most of the questions on infected tattoos and have gotten alot of good information. However, after i have tried some of the things mentioned ( bacitracin,lotion,neosporin etc) some parts are still infected. not warm or painful just look like dried pus in places.i have wrapped it before.it seems like when i wrap them they just stay gooy and moist like they wont ever heal. the tats are ruined and i know i need to get them fixed but for now i just want them to heal.they are on my wrists and about 12 days old. the infection didnt seem there until about 4 days ago. if all else fails like in the next few days, i will go to a doctor. thanx in advance :)

I am thinking about getting butterflies tattoed up my spine, I am just wondering what the risks of this are of getting a tattoo there, or for the matter a tattoo anywhere. I am also wondering if people think this is a good place to get it, I saw a really pretty picture once while looking for tattoo ideas online. I would also like to dedicate them each to a person who has been important to me so far in my life. If you think butterflies aren't the best choice please do speak up.. and also.. are there any ways you can almost, test how much you would like the idea, to kinda try out the tattoo before you get it?

Okay, before I ask I need to let everyone know that where I am from 14 is the legal age.

I started apprenticing a guy from a tattoo shop local. He has been doing tattoos for over 20 years and is the best one in the area. He is 37, I'm 17. We have been messing around at the shop, and going on dates and stuff. But he is married and has one kid with her.

What should I do?

And our age difference is perfectly legal.

I want to get a monkey with wings on my right buttock, kind of on the inside of the valley, as if it were escaping.

I'm tired of everyone using that phrase "when monkeys fly out of my butt" so now, I'll show them!

So should I get the monkeys from the Wizard of Oz, or something more realistic? Perhaps more Curious George-ish? I don't want to scare anyone and a lot of people are scared of those crazy monkeys from the Wizard of Oz.

The Bible says that defacing your body is a sin. Why is it that so many people are interested in defiling and defacing their bodies with this disgusting "art?" I don't get it - who agrees?!

im intrested in getting a jack skellington tattoo. i love The nightmare before christmas and i wanted to get a group picture of the cast, jack, sally, mayor....ect on my right side.....i was wondering if there was anybody that knew how to do nightmare before christmas tattoos very well, becasue i dont have alot of pictures to go by, anyone who has looked for nightmare before x-mas pics can tell you its really hard to find quality ones, so it would be nice if the artist was familiar with how the characters looked. it would be great if the tattoo shop was in the D.C. metro area, but im willing to travel. if you are an artist please feel free to e-mail me, Cabz2018@yahoo.com...
