    She's a beautiful young woman, but most people on the planet don't look like that.

    The OP asked for honest opinions, so I hope the finger pointers don't come screeching how narrow minded some people are who don't love tats. My opinion to the OP is that it's nothing I would ever do to my body, but if it makes you happy and you find it beautiful, than go for it. Your body, your choice.

    I have a full sleeve, I also have a chest piece and lots of other tattoos, I'm biased, I'm a professional body piercer and looking at become a tattooist. It's about lifestyle for me, and I guess a personal rebellion against traditional definitions of beauty. I don't have tattoos that really "mean something" I have tattoos I enjoy because it is an art form. Do what you want, I wouldn't tell people not to get tattooed or that they should, it's a personal decision, and everyone is different.

    I have a 3/4 sleeve. I don't regret it and never will. No pictures of it I can get to at the moment. I highly suggest a great artist. Covering up in a professional environment is really not that bad. Cardigans and a tatjacket for when I don't want to wear a long sleeve button up shirt.

    I have both arms done and am in my 30's, I've never regretted any of my tattoos, in fact if I didn't have them it would be quite weird, my advice would be to find a great artist and sit down with them and discuss what you want, go for something original, of course there's going to be heaps of people out there saying don't do it, blah blah blah, but I think those people either don't have any tattoos at all or have really **** tattoos.

    if that's what you want, go for it. I personally only get mine where they can be covered for work.

    I don't know what you do for a living but most offices have a no show policy regarding tattoos , so keep that in mind if you ever plan to work in a professional environment that you may have to always wear long sleeves to cover your ink. Also keep in mind that even if that does not apply to your life now, sometime in your future it may. Good luck either way!

    ^ This.

    When I had a large upper arm tattoo done very few of my contemparies did. Now I have had mine removed and many of my girl friends have full sleeves. Some really beautiful designs of flowers and koi carp.

    But get used to wearing long sleeves AND sunscreen and staying in the shade in the summer (to stop them from fading).

    I have many tattoos but want a half sleeve. What are your opinions on them? If you have one, can I see your pics?!

    thumbs down to tattoo sleeves on women (just my opinion)

    I think it looks good depending on the person. I have a tattoo on each arm (among other places), but I personally wouldn't get a sleeve.

    It looks really good on people that are younger, like 45 and under (maybe older depending on your arms). Otherwise think of when you're really old with bat wing arms.... Yikes! Just my opinion... The body wrinkles and ages and we all get that way eventually. You never see pictures of grannies sporting them for a reason. (Nothing "wrong" with it, just not my cup of tea)

    I have a half sleeve, would eventually like to get both arms fully sleeved! I think there is a picture of it in my profile - koi, cherry blossoms and a chrysanthemum :smile:
