    I have 2....got the 1st one @ 3 1/2 years ago . (I was 44 yrs old) A heart with my oldest son's name on it. (He passed away almost 4 years ago) I've had more work done to that one...adding leaves/flowers to it. Also have a heart leaf and then smaller leaves/flowers around it. They match. Plan to get more on my son's birthday and the day he passed away.

    I have one that starts on my left shoulder and ends on my right thigh, it's a peacock at the top, lots of animals, vines & flowers in between, and peacock feathers on my thigh. It also sweeps around front at my right hip and covers a surgery scar and generally decorates *that* area.

    I also have a phoenix whose tail circles my navel.

    I'm finished with tats unless something strikes my fancy, but it's been a while and I haven't had any great inspirations yet.

    I have one on my side. It's a hummingbird and a morning glory to honor my mom and dad.

    Don't have one and very likely never will get one, but, I'm kind of intrigued by scar body mod. I love the way it looks, but am guessing that it's way more painful than I could tolerate.

    I have 2: The one on my chest says "Memento Mori" and the one on my left shoulder says "You are who you choose to be"

    I want to get another on my right shoulder that says "Nothing is permanent" and I'm just waiting until it feels right to get it.

    I have 6 and I'm terrified of needles too! Just don't watch, and be drunk ;) feels more like someone scratching you very slowly, and very hard with a sharp fingernail. When I lose the weight and tone up and want to get a large one with stars going down my side!

    I've wanted one for years, but never really found one that jumped out at me. Now I've found one (or two), but being 40+, it'd be kind of a mid-life-crisis thing. Not sure if I should do it.

    I had a mini mid life crisis when I was 27. I've never regretted getting mine. :smile:

    I am not scared of needles, I teach IV classes and let my students practice on me!!!! But, I have a wonderful artist who lets me bring a covered cup of "tattoo juice" with me that I sip while he's working. It's against the rules but.... (tattoo juice=red wine, not enough to be drunk, but just right for relaxing.)

    Ive got 7 tatts im planning more but I just want to add finishing touches to one of mine as I found an new artist that feels he could add alot more to one I already have.

    ive got angel n devil on my shoulders, grim reaper on my upper right arm piece, pistol with sinner on inner right upper arm same arm on fore arm I have ' you're just another dead man living to me' im going to add a crow and brandon lee as the legend himself the crow so all in all my right arm is a tribute to my darker side.

    on left hand I got a kitten a tribute to my little kitty that passed away of whom I loved dearly.

    my left arm is going to be a pitcure of butterflies a faries and all things magical for my three daughters as they are my dream come true of pure joy and playfulness.

    K don't have one ....scared of needles! lol but being irish .....if I did it would be pot of gold with 3 shamrocks coming out with my kids initials.......cheesy right?

    I have 6...and counting. I'm also Irish. One is a shamrock with Celtic knotwork around it. I also have a shamrock located in the football that's part of my 1/4 sleeve. I hate medical needles...tattoo needles are completely different. It's more of just an annoying pain that lasts a while and can be uncomfortable on certain parts of the body. Overall, they are addicting and I LOVE them! :happy:

    I have a couple tattoos on my body, but the one I love the most is my Yin yang tattoo (mostly because of the meaning - http://www.tattooneed.com/yin-yang-tattoos-meaning-and-amazing-designs/ )
