Re: Those who got a tatoo when they were a lot younger

I got my first (of 5) when I was 18 and I dont regret it. Its my least favorite of them all, but I love it bc its my first tattoo and I have a fondness for it. Since then all of my others have had some kind of significance or meaning to me whereas I just liked the design for this one. Plus all of my others, I only do black and grey now, no color. This one has color. That would be my least favorite thing about it.

Im also not thrilled with its position anymore.....back in the day when I got it (1997) jeans came up MUCH higher than they do now. So at the time it sat right above the top of my jeans off to the left of my spine. However, now that jeans are much lower, its kind of just randomly floating on my back.

18 years ago and while I don't regret it at all...i'm just "eh" about it.

It's on my hip so it doesn't come out often.

it's pretty faded though

Re: Those who got a tatoo when they were a lot younger

I waited until I was 25 to get my 1st tat and don't regret it one bit. I had wanted the same one since I was 18, so I knew it was right for me.

Had i gotten it when I was 18.....I'd also have a grateful dead dancing bear on my ankle which, thankfully at 25 I realized was NOT right for me at allChat Icon

{{no offense to anyone who has a bear}}

I also don't regret the 2 that followed the original. They are all original, had much thought put into them and have deep meaning for me

Re: Those who got a tatoo when they were a lot younger

Actually got my first tat about a year ago, at 29. I designed it myself and it is in the common lower back spot. It has a crown and musical staff and notes which both really mean something to me. I always wanted one but couldn't decide what I wanted. I designed it myself so it had more meaning. DH and I both got tattoos during our honeymoon week and I designed them both. DH says he loves looking at his and knowing that I designed it just for him Chat Icon I kind of wish I had put mine in a better spot cause I never get to see where it is. DH does though and he LOVES it! I can't wait to get my second one, hopefully soon.

I totally agree! I got a small sun on my lower left back when i was 18 and a few years later it was fading, so had a tattoo artist draw a butterfly around it. It's huge but I never see it so I haven't gotten sick of it (10 yrs later).

Re: Those who got a tatoo when they were a lot younger

NO! I was 18 and I still like my first tattoo.

I want another one.

I do think it's important, very important to think thoroughly about WHAT you want and WHERE you want it. That's key to not regretting it later.

Re: Those who got a tatoo when they were a lot younger

Yes, I regret BOTH of my tats. I was young, stupid, and thought it would be "cool". Then I got my first "real" job and had to keep them covered up. Then I had 3 kids, and have had "fun" explaining what they are, why I got them, and why they do not come off. If I LIKED them, it would not be a big deal, but I do not even like them. WISH I had the money to get them removed. Chat Icon

I have two which I got about 17 and 15 years ago. I designed and drew them both myself. I don't regret them (and they are both in places no one would ever see unless I showed them), but I should have researched the place a bit better because I think they could have come out nicer. I keep saying I'm going to get them retouched, but probably will never get around to it...

YES. I have a star on my hip and its in a TERRIBLE spot. Whenever I gain a few one of the points on the star curves up a little bit - If I ever get pregnant it's going to be a terrible sightChat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: Those who got a tatoo when they were a lot younger

when I was 16 I got a tribal heart with flames coming out of it in the middle of my thigh.. it's not that I regret it.. but it's in the middle of my thigh.. not the smartest place for a tattoo..

Re: Those who got a tatoo when they were a lot younger

Re: Those who got a tatoo when they were a lot younger

i started getting tattooed at 18. I don't regret any of my tattoos and I'm heavily tattooed. I sat on ideas for awhile and made sure I went to top notch artists. I think that's the problem. a lot of people just get tattooed spur of the moment type thing. don't know anything about tattoos or artists, and pick stuff off the wall.
