    I have one I thought about it long and hard before I did was making my 30 year transition...deciding what would make me happy and who I really was aside from being the good girl next door everyone thought I was supposed to be. Breaking out of the proverbial shell so to speak.

    Its smallish on my low low back where it's only seen if I choose to show you ...it's ID( Freudian alter ego) Circled in green ivy(eternal) stemming from a Red Rose( love). The drive for pure pleasure for ME in life and love. Be me and enjoy life not just survive.


    Ahhhh I think far too much lol.

    Love your choices and your placement, as well as your reasons...ring true to me...thanks for sharing!

    Thinking and not doing is what got me in this place with my weight in the first place I am sure.lol

    I have large one on the outer side of my left calf, from behind the knee to the front of the ankle. It's a large cherry blossom branch with a dragonfly (full colour) and it took about six hours in total. I also have a medium/largish black and grey one on my lower/mid back - roses and vines surrounding a Celtic triquetra symbol.

    I love them both and want lots more. The first I had was the symbol on my back, which I grew to hate so I had the vines and flowers added later. It was initially done on the spur of the moment and just picked from a book of designs. I'd never recommend doing that! Think about it for a LONG time, then think some more. Then do a lot of research into artists and find someone to draw up something unique for you:)

    I have 2 tats....both strategically hidden with bikini lines. I have got both between the ages of 17-20 and am now 28, I have no regrets, I love them both!!! And although hidden, mainly for work purposes, I will show them to anyone proudly.

    hidden by bikini lines...for work???? gotta wonder what they are :D
  • I have 3. I love them! Got my first one at 18 and just got my third one last summer. I plan on more!!!
    One on my calf, One on my shoulder and the latest one is on my wrist, which a tribute to my cousin who passed away
  • I have 3 tattoos. My first one I got was on my right calf, it's the japanese symbol for love. The 2nd one is on my lower back, a design I did myself, and my 3rd one is on my left breast. It's two hearts intertwined. It was on my wedding invitation. I'm going to add to the one on my calf. I have 3 kids, two boys and a girl and I was thinking of getting japanese cherry blossoms, one pink and two blue, with the vines and tree branches wrapped around the japanese symbol. Still have to get it designed, and will probably get it this winter.

    I don't regret getting any tattoos. And I can hide them if I need to wear something for a formal occassion.

    I have 14, and would LOVE more. I'm too broke to get more right now, but they are definitely in my future.

    I got my first one at 16, in the basement of some dudes house with my best friend. We got hearts on our hips with our initials in it. After that I waited until I was 18 and could get them professionally done haha, I have:

    1. heart on my hip
    2. shamrock on my foot
    3. roses and name on my ankle
    4. canada goose on my calf
    5. earth on my lower back
    6. little girl with birds in her hair on my shoulder
    7&8 lotus flowers on my wrist
    9. my cat on my left inner forearm
    10. elephant on my right inner forearm
    11 pit bull and kitty on my left upper arm area
    12 & 13 dogwood blossoms on both sides of my chest
    14. womans symbol behind my ear

    I love them all, some are more meaningful then others, some are better quality then others, but I dont regret any of them. I would change a few things about certain ones, and maybe one day I'll get around to it, but I am definitely happy that I have each one! I definitely cant wait until I can splurge on more! It sucks when you grow up and have a mortgage and bills! LOL

    I just have one ! :laugh:

    It's on my back (profile pic) black & Grey

    Private, not that many people have seen it, I got it for me (& my daughter) not for anybody else

    Only regret is it's finished, the pain is addictive
