I am wanting opinion from guys and girls on tattoos. Is there a level that is attractive and not if they are quality tattoos? I have a few all able to b covered because of my employment. I have three stars on my ribs and my full back done in angel wings. I mentioned the other day to my mom getting some more. I am wanting shading done behind stars, and a 3d corset tattoo in the empty space between the wings on my lower back and bows on the back of my thighs. My mom says this is excessive and skin is attractive. I love my tats and think they are sexy but am now wondering if I am starting to get carried away and how they look to others. Please share what your opinion is.

    Opinions are like *kitten*; everybody has one.....so on and so forth. A tattoo is YOU. Personal. Do what you want and forget what the masses say.

    Of course, that's just my opinion. :laugh:

    Tattoos on women are becoming more and more widely accepted. Not best to get opinions from people of an older generation on excessive tattoos on women. My grandmother hates mine because her generation has a different idea of tattoos and who should get what. Get what you want. Heavily tattooed women are hott.

    I work too in a professional environment, however, I get my tattoos for me. If that makes me a "rebel" "badass" or any other name that comes with the territory then let people think that..

    DO FOR YOU NO ONE ELSE

    I say get what you want, and if someone doesn't like them, then you don't need to worry with that person. Do what makes you happy.

    Having said that, I think tattoos are really sexy, on men and women both.

    Chicks with tattoos are better than chicks without tattoos, it's a fact!

    Unless your employer has an established, written policy against visible tattoos, it's none of their business. I have a few, and some piercings as well. Fortunately I have never worked in an industry that cared about things like that.

    I think that part of that is a matter of opinion and part has to do with your lifestyle. If you are a full time successful artist, then by all means, have tattoos. That is the kind of job where it would be accepted. But if you work a 9-5 in an office as like PR for example, then it's probably not a good look. Personally Ive seen women with sleeves who were super hot!

    I've always found tattoos very attractive on women if they are good. Generic tattoos in generic spots ("tramp stamps") are sort of dumb to me. I just don't see the point. But back, stomach, and arm tattoos that are original and look good are really attractive.

    I have one tattoo now and will probably get another when I reach my goal ad a "reward"

    Who cares who it's attractive to. If you like them get them if you don't, don't. Simple

    i love tattoos, on both men and women. I think when they are well done, they are very attractive.

    I have a half sleeve and want a full but I work for the court :sad: and don't want to wear long sleeves all the time.

    I have em. They're quite visible. Anyone that doesn't like that can deal with it. As far as women, inked girls are best girls. It is known.

    They are slowly becoming more mainstream. You see doctors and teachers with them now. I imagine in our lifetimes they will cease to be a big deal.

    Skin is attractive, especially when decorated with beautiful art.

    Ok first of all.. You have bows on the back of your thighs!? I wanna get those so bad. I have so many pictures of different kinds to bows I want on my thighs, or maybe my shoulders near my collar bones.

    2nd, who cares what anyone says? Tattoos are sexy as hell. I have 3, relatively small ones and I love them. I cant wait to get more. Tattoos are a way of expressing yourself. Some people are "tattoo people" and some people arent. So if people dont like your tats then thats their opinion and it shouldnt affect what you do to YOUR body.

    Its your choice. Its your body. Just be sure its something you won't regret later in life.

    In my opinion, good quality tattoos are beautiful. Just be sure that you can cover them if your employer requires it. Always going to a reputable tattooist that displays their certifications on the wall.

    In my opinion I LOVE them on anyone (as long as they are done well) and I have a few. I personally would not get tattoos on my neck, face or hands but everyone has their own opinion.
