I hear all the time, why would you do that to yourself? why would you do that to your body? what is that going to look like when youre 60?

Funny thing about people with tatts we dont care if you got em or not, we love our style, and the ones we have....somehow...its not always the other way around with those that dont. Dont hate, feel the love!

Besides when Im 60, I dont care whos lookin. Ill be bitter and old. oh well, haters gonna hate. Here are mine =) and all of them I created and drew =)

My most recent one for my son

The bikini one is the only one I could find where you could see the half of the other side...not even really...both sides are covered now though =)

Sigh...I still want more. No back tattoos though, Ill leave that bare.
I have script on my ribs, that say "Blessed the Lord, my strength, who prepares my hands for battle, and trains my fingers for war, lest we forget" too, I got it mid military career as a seabee =)

show me yours you sexy ladies!! =)

    Who said girls with tattoos are ugly? I don't particularly like them, but ugly? I don't think so. I also don't think it makes them sexier either.

    Why didn't you just post this with the subject line of "Look at my new tat!"

    Isn't that what this is truly about?

    I'm waiting to get mine in dedication of my grandma who passed away a few years back... Can't wait :) I think it's going to be a pretty decent size right on the side of my calf or ankle.

    I hear it ALL OF the time. holding a 3 yr old, doesnt make the comments any fewer either...in fact it seems to make them come harder..."whats your son going to think?"

    people judge...a lot.

    I'm proud to be a walking art gallery. If people think I look "ugly" because of it, so be it!! We all have different artistic preferences and are visually attracted to different things. Personally, I think the "Mona Lisa" looks like *kitten*!!!! :laugh:

    yes!!!!!!!!!!! this so much.yours are awesome! so so pretty. :D i get harassed by people about it too.and people who get all condescending like i'm a little child who has no idea what i'm doing.like really? it's permanent? i had NO IDEA.thanks SO MUCH for telling me! it isn't like i knew that! *rolls eyes*

    and i also get the comments about like 'why would you do that to yourself?" etc as if i've mutilated myself.and "well that's going to look so bad when you're 80' um, when i'm 80 i don't think i'll be sitting in my house despairing and saying 'oh if only i hadn't gotten these tattoos! then i'd be outside i a bikini prancing around! but the TATTOOS ruined my body! not AGE or anything!" GAHHHHHHH
    i think the look of a girl with tattoos is super great.i love awesome tattoos, and i don't believe in regretting the less than stellar ones, because it's part of a person's past, and their journey, and the whole look of having multiple tattoos is awesome :) i love body art in general <3

    sorry i do't have a good pic of mine, my photos were lost when my computer died, it's mostly covered in this pic
    it says 'Life Won't Wait

    Thanks! :flowerforyou: It took many hours over several years. I did my sleeve piece-by-piece, kinda like a patchwork quilt. :laugh: My artist and I have formed a pretty great relationship, so I try to visit as often as possible. I tip him well and he always does my touch-ups for free. Plus, he takes good care of any family and/or friends that I send his way. :bigsmile:

    As for price, I've definitely invested over a grand in my ink. Money well spent...nothing else I've ever bought will be with me forever!!! :smooched:

    My tat represents my kids... I have two girls, one stargazer lily for each of them. They're july babies - hence the "ruby" throated hummingbird. The lily symbolizes purity and faith, and the stargazer is my abs favorite - both from a flower perspective, and from the fact that I am an astronomer at heart.

    My next one will symbolize the struggle and victory I am having / will have when my divorce is done and I come out of it stronger.
