Lower Back Tattoo Questions?

Question

Im not old enough to sign the papers. Could You just get like your aunty.. Or like do they have to be your legal Guardian? How Much Do you think It Would Cost To get a tattoo There? And I Go To The Tanning Salon Would It Mess With My Tan?

Answer 1

Wait until you are 18, oh yeah, wait until you are 18. The club of the inked is always accepting new members, but you must be of proper age to get in the door.

There's that term again, down there, "TRAMP STAMP." Why do you people insist on using thast horrible term......aahhhhhh!!!

It's like my kryptonite!!!

Answer 2

It has to be legal guardian, and most places won't even take that. It shouldn't mess with your tan, but if you get a colored tattoo, I wouldn't expose it to the sun or to a tanning bed. One, it will lose color, and two if you get it done after your tattoo it hurts like hell. Mine was $70, and it's not done yet plus it all depends on the size, and how much color you want. All artists charge differently. There's no set price for any tattoo in more then one location. You could get a tattoo done for $60 and you friend goes to another guy with the same tattoo done for $80. But anyways my tattoo is a memorial tattoo for my dad. It's a tribal band with the lettering "Forever Loved" and his initials with the day he passed. Yes tattoos on the lower back are considered a "tramp stamp". But it all depends why you're getting it there. If you're getting it there cause you think it's cool, then it's a tramp stamp. I had to get it there because nothing else on my body was big enough for what I have there. And I hate when people refer to it as that, it actually kind of pisses me off. People have their reason for getting tattoos, and the only dumb ones are the ones with your "significant others" name, or just cause you think it looked cool. Each of my tattoos has a meaning for something, and so does my husbands. The only initials I would ever get on my body would be my parents, or my children. Even though I know me and my husband aren't splitting up, I still think it's a bit dumb to get someone elses (who's not related to you) initials on you, because you never know. Sorry about that little rant there. Hope I answered your question.

Answer 3

Well you are going to have to wait till you are old enough or have a legal guardian that is willing to allow you to get one to go with you (with proof that they are a legal guardian too) As far as the price that depends entirely on size, detail, color, things along those lines. I have never been charged an additional price for a specific location. If you are able to get the tattoo hold off tanning till the tattoo is completely healed (1-2 weeks depending on how fast you heal). Even in a tanning bed, the UV light will fade your tattoo, making it look years older then it is (not to flattering on a tattoo that's a few weeks old!) Good luck hope that helps in some way!

Answer 4

Depending on where you go to get your tattoo they may not notice that your Aunt is not your legal gaurdian, or they may not care, but I wouldn't trust a place that doesnt really care about the law b/c then I would wonder if they up to the sterilization codes and stuff. I am getting a tatto on my lower back tomorrow that is about 2 inches tall and 6 inches wide in color that costs about $170 if that helps to give you an idea, but all artists are different. Just do the research, and I would take your legal guardian with you, its hard to try to hide a tat.

Answer 5

First, NO!!!! Any GOOD and legal tattoo artist will not tattoo you with out your parents there. LEGAL GUARDIAN ONLY.
Cost: depends on how big, colors etc. But only if you are over 18.
Tanning: no tattoos don't "mess" your tan, but tanning will "mess" with your tattoo.
Tanning can cause the tattoo to fade very badly.

Answer 6

it must be a legal guardian (both parents). wait until you are old enough. you might regret the tat later on. i'm not telling you not to get one, but wait until you are old enough to be sure of what you want. if it's your own design, then you will always be able to do it. tanning will mess with any tat, during the healing process, you can't even go swimming, or take a bath (no soaking).

if a shop is willing to tat a child, then run away. no respectable shop would do it. they will tell you to wait.

think long and hard.

Answer 7

ok first question you need a parent or legal gaurdian so unless you aunt is your legal gaurdian then that probably wouldn't work. second question my lower back piece is a 3" by 4" butterfly with 5" of tribal on either side and it cost me $110.00 the price all depends on how big you want it and where you go to get it done. you CAN NOT TAN for 3 or 4 weeks after because your skin is healing and peeling you don't want uv rays to be hitting it for long periods at a time until it is healed completely!!!!

Answer 8

No, your aunt can't. She has to prove she's your legal guardian and what's the harm in waiting? I got mine for $300, but it depends on the size. Also, you can still go tanning but it will cause your tat to fade quicker. You can use sunscreen but when I used to go tanning they had rules about using sunscreen in the bed. While waiting to come of age, research the tat parlors in your area, the artists and so on. Find one who's work you wouldn't mind having on you for the rest of your life. Not all artists are the same.

Answer 9

1. wait until you are old enough to get a tat legally.
2. make sure that it is a design you want and like
3. yes it hurts. it is a sharp, pointy object being repeatedly jabbed into your skin.
4. the price depends on how large it is and how complex it is.
5. UV lights (yes, the same kind found in the sun and in tanning beds) will fade the ink.

Answer 10

1) yes, it has to be a legal guardian

2) depending on the size ( mine was $200 )

3) cover it when tanning so it does not ruin the color
