So say I wanted to get this symbol:

possibly colored in in same way, or maybe in brown instead of black ink, where should I get it and how big. I already have a tiny one on my hip, and one on my shoulder blade. And I'm kind of wanting to be able to see this one (unlike the current one on my back).

And GO!

    Maybe on your cheek, so everyone can judge you quickly and just be done with it.




    Thigh, right at the edge of where your riding shorts sit. Saw someone with a tat in that location, and it's awesome for cyclists. :D

    The top should encompass your nipple & go from there.




    You're welcome.

    Ouchy. But I could put it on the "little boob" so it would get attention too.

    I agree on the thigh.

    If you go thigh, get it high enough to not poke out when wearing a dress, or low enough that you can see it easily. Unless you like lifting up shorts and dresses a lot :P

    I'd advise against brown ink, especially if it's on a part of your body that sees a lot of touching (from pants and whatnot) because everything fades, and brown fades quicker than black. Or just go for rather dark brown. I have friends with brown tattoos and very light skin, and it still faded quite a bit after 5-10 years.

    Is this your first tattoo? I love the designs!

    I love my thigh tattoo. I purposely put it right below my bike shorts since it's a bicycle.

    I almost said "bust" because I misread your username as "Bustylady"...
    I agree on calf, btw.
