Tattoos & piercings

I love hearing about how everyone expresses themselves through body art!
I am a late bloomer, eager for more. Currently, I have one tribal butterfly (symbolic of my amazing partner, Allie) on my left shin, 2 normal 18 gauge holes in each ear and an 18 gauge left nostril piercing. I waited nearly 20 years for the nostril piercing! I've so wanted one since I was 17.
I have hopes for more tattoos, but probably no more piercings unless its a microdermal.
Those without body mods are still beautiful, they just express themselves in other ways!0 -
Tats: Marvin the Martian - shoulder, Maple leaf - hip (YAY CANADA!), Heart - Ankle, Moon and stars - Foot, Eye of Horuz - Calf, Planet symbol for Jupiter-Wrist
Piercings - I have my ears and I did have my naval but I took it out because my wife wasn't a fan.0 -
Love them! I have 3 facial piercings that I rarely wear (all holes still open) currently sporting my lip hoop. 10 tattoos all on my upper body. They all have various meanings, a couple have no meanings at all. My pet peeve is people grabbing my arms and asking me what they mean, dunno why. Lately when people ask me I jut say "nothing", it's easier than going into some back story I don't care for people to know. I'm a sucker for a girl with tats.0

I have no tattoos and don't want to but like piercings.
I got my ears pierced on my first birthday (I'm Indian) and am actually going to pierce my nose later today (:0 -
Love tattoos and piercings! Half back ink here! Couple piercings but nothing to write home about.0

Are you a cougar? I like dating older woman.. My last two girl friends were both 8+ years older than I am.. My current girlfriend is 4 years older.
LOL! I hope I'm not old enough to be called a cougar...Althought I did date someone 8 years younger than me for a few years...I will NEVER date that young again HAHA! I learned my lesson. The age difference definately made an impact.0 -
Hello all. I have two tats right now and I am addicted!!!! I was inked for the first time at 52. I had back surgery so I wanted the scar hidden sooooo...now I have a nice tat that includes a knotted tree with a hot barbarian woman standing next to it in a very sexy pose...surrounded by all many skulls, depicting all the "ex's" being dead to her. I have another of the shackled angel which I will add to with chains leading from her...to my shoulders where I will have an illusion skull on each shoulder...both having women in them. I love my tat artist(s) and look forward to getting many tats in the future.0

L VE them!
I had my belly button and lip pierced...however, my belly ring was torn out by a rough-housing friend, and I had to take my lip piercing out for work :grumble:
I have 3 tattoos at the moment: a purple heart with stiches on my back, skulls on my ankle (my best friend and I got matching ones), and the name of my daughter who passed away when she was nearly 4 months old "Bella" on my left wrist.
I have so many more planned!0 -
I'm boring! No tattoos (althought I would like some), my ears are stretched to 00g but that's it.0
-
I get the more planned. :bigsmile:0

Does not make you boring, with a smile like that, you could NEVER be boring!0

I have a couple of tattoos and my ears are pierced (two in each ear).
The tattoos are on my arms, a Sanskrit OM, which is the symbol for God; a tribal band; an American eagle with stars and stripes; and the Greek lettering for molon labe ("come take them"). I'd like to get one or two more, maybe another Sanskrit and/or Greek phrase.0 -
Nice. I am going to get skulls on my shoulders (illusion skulls) with women in them of course lmao.0

No tattoos, no piercings for me. On me, I mean. I'm cool with whatever anyone else does. I tried to pierce my earlobes 3 times between the ages of 13-20 and they rejected every time. Figured my body was trying to tell me something, so I gave up.
What I don't find attractive though is those...I think they're called stick-n-poke tattoos? DIY tattoos, whatever. I've never seen one that looks good.0 -
Many people have tats and you don't even know it. I have one ear that does not like to be pierced and one that does, so it has to be done by a professional and have a larger gauge ring in or it will close up no matter what I do. Glad to stopped by mel0

I have five tattoos and two piercings that are not lobe piercings - both tragus (done 8 years ago) and both daiths (done 8 months ago). I have also had my eyebrow and tongue pierced but have since let them close. I think once you start, it's hard to stop.0

I used to have a fair few piercings, including one where the sun don't shine but that one got annoying and the others were visible and had to come out (I'm in the corporate world now).
I have four tattoos: A unicorn on my right breast, wolf howling at the moon on my right ankle, howling wolf on my neck, and an abstract tribal dragon on my left wrist.
When I hit goal, I plan on adding to my tattoo collection. I body art.0 -
In my time I've had four piercings. Only one remains, though my 2nd one could be easily reactivated.
I don't find tattoos attractive at all. In fact, an ex of mine got one while we were together. As it turned out, he got the wrong ancient greek symbol right up his entire forearm (he wanted their symbol of medicine, but instead ended up with the symbol of one of their gods - Hermes). Now every time I see it, I see someone who doesn't do his research before making life changing decisions. I ended things then and there. You have to have an incredibly good body to pull off a tattoo IMHO, and anyone that attractive is automatically out of my league.
Further, I don't trust the source of the pigments. Some day the nanoparticles and/or the benzoapyrene in the black inks will probably be found to be carcinogenic. The mercury in the red pigments is already known to be one. Even if they're not carcinogenic, they don't stop sun exposed skin cancers and they make it harder to identify them when they exist. Some day this will come back to bite everyone, and I'd rather not be one of them.0 -
lol I LOOOOOOOVE Tattoo's both on me and others!
The only piercings I have a few holes in each ear but I have 6 tattoos and 4 more planned..
1) Right Ankle- Double Bow (From one of my favorite book series)
2) Left Ankle-Cheshire Cat Face (For the crazy cat lady in me!)
3) Right Wrist- Japanese Calligraphy for "The Journey of 1000 miles begins with a single step"
4) Left Wrist- Japanese Calligraphy for "Love conquers all"
5) Below Neck - Sun with an H in the center to represent my mothers family
6) Left shoulder to elbow - Fall of Calla Lilies (in progress)
I'm planning one on my chest, at least 2 on my left arm from shoulder to elbow and a pride heart above the calligraphy on my left forearm. Cannot wait to get them all.0 -
I have a set of beautiful purple eyes tattooed on my chest!
Although i get way more attention than I bargained for.... People stop me at least 20 times a day if my chest is showing to comment on it lol
Hopefully the link will work...?
