Will agree Hayley,,,,,,,,people ,are ,not common that have one or them,,,,,,,,,,,,,,but common because they have,,they are every where you look,,,,they are not unique,,,,,,

it was a sign in the late 1890's and early 1900's that a tatooed women was ok,,,,,,,,if you know what I mean,,,!they were to be seen in pubs where the sailors docked,,,,,,,,,,,

Julie each to their own......the first time I saw one on a girls lower back I thought it was lovely.....now everyone has them...

Have you ever seen them when age is about,

70+....see if somebody can show you,,,,,,,,,,

they look b-----awful,,,,,,,,,,,,,faded,wrinkled and nothing like their original,,,,,,they look like them old wrinkly things you see on old mens arms,,,,,,,,,,just a mass,,,,,,of a long gone tat,,,,,,,,

my friends mum at 65 had 3 done and her belly button pierced,@Blackpool,,,,,,,well that was over 10years ago,,,,,,as her skins sagged so has the tat,,,,,,,,and well it looks awful,,,,,,,,,

but its a personal choice,,,,,,,,,,but its more cool now not have have them,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

I have 2 and don't regret them, mind you I forget I have them most of the time lol. I have one on the back of my shoulder and the second is to the side about where my jeans waistband is.

Hayley re #2 you're wrong ;-pppp

I have a little butterfly on my back.I love it but one is enough for me. Annie

I think ive told you before Muffy I dont regret mine at all and ive had it almost 20 years.

The small dolphin is more of a blue whale as I am bigger 20 years on.

BUT ......and this is important - I took a lot of advise about where to have it. No one knows unless I tell them I have a tattoo or unless I choose to display it.

I have to say seeing OAP's - in particular ladies on the beach with mishapen and discolured Tatt's isnt a good look.

But if you are doing it for you - then go for it enhoy it but think very carefully about it and check out the artist before you go and pref have someone recommend them.

added: Muffy we are approx the same age - I wasn't suggesting you were an OAP!

Muffy fair be it from me to comment but..

1) Tats are for young people your nearly 40.

2) They look so common sorry but they do.

3) You may regret it. I have a homemade ones since I was about 11 and I do.

4) Well I dont have to worry what to get you for your birthday. What size tracky do you want ?






pmsl...

I've been considering one now for the last almost 3 yrs...... I know what I would like and haven't changed my mind......however my OH is very sniffy about it .....he's concerned that in a few years time I may regret my decision.

I've given myself a five year deadline to think it through my and my friend has offered to take me for my 40th present in two years time.

I just wondered if anyone regrets their decision as most people I speak to have said they don't xx
