Where to put tattoo on a girl?

Question

I already got a tattoo on the outside of my ankle and lower back. I'm planning to get another one and I wanted it on my wrist. I was told that future employers would discriminate against people with visible tattoos. Especially since I'm going to be a nurse I don't believe in such bs--but i still need an opinion

Answer 1

I've got two on my ankle that are rarely noticed, but if I were you I'd get a band around my bicep or something, most people I know who have them on their wrists regret it unless they have a full (tattoo)sleeve to go with it.

Rule to go by: "Don't get 'em where the judge can see 'em."

Answer 2

You may not like this answer, but since you asked...

Stop with the tattoos. Leave well enough alone and be happy with what you've got. Contrary to popular belief, tattoos make a woman look trashy. I went into the military at 17 and started getting them. Tattoos were part of being a sailor (or so I thought). I have one each on my upper arm, one each on the side of my calves, one on my left upper thigh, one on each side of my chest & several on my back. This is tame in comparison to what a lot of people get. Now I'm 49 and some of my tats don't look so pretty anymore. It's an 'age' thing.
Getting tattooed hurts (as you know), but they also can become addictive. The pain releases endorphins and since you are going to be a nurse, you should already be familiar with this natural feel-good drug.

If I could turn back the clock, I would've definitely left off the tattoos. They may look cool 'now', but later on you'll regret it. This is voice of experience talking here. Take heed & you'll thank yourself later.

Answer 3

It will keep you from getting a lot of jobs if you have visible tattoos. You should try upper arms or shoulder blades instead. Always think of what you can cover up with pants and a t-shirt!!

Answer 4

I put mine on the outside of my wrist. It stays covered by my watch. Most folks don't even know it is there and very surprised when they find out. (like when tattoos come up in conversation and I say I have one and then show them. They are very surprised)

Answer 5

Yes some employers do but im sure if you had one on your wrist you could cover it up when in work.. or you could get one on the back of your neck which i think is cool.

Answer 6

My daughter had to get one removed from her wrist due to work opportunities...be careful where you place it...if you can cover it up for work, that would be acceptable...she now has a butterfly over her belly button and with the little crop tops, it looks amazing..very bright and tastefully done..fine lines...good luck

Answer 7

it is true for respectable high paying jobs tattoos are a no no. they give the company a sence of wrong and dirty just to avoid that issue get it on your back, butt, maybe behing your neck but never somewhere that you cant cover it up trust me we live in a world where almost everything is frowned apon.

Answer 8

you really don't want a visible tattoo if you are a nurse....you'll have to keep it covered while at work.....

i agree with ya, censorship (even censoring our body art) is the real obscenity.

but there are tons of cute places you can get ink....i like directly below the back of the neck....&...i have one on my big toe...

Answer 9

STOP!!!! with the ink unless you are a rock star or a prisoner,yes people judge the book by the cover.
