I love tats. I think it's an awesome piece of art! I was thinking about getting another. Anyone get any new ink or wanna share what they've had done?

I have a few:
back - pics of my 3 kids with cherish below it
legs - a few pieces in reference to my family, a cross, and my goals as a runner
arms - a few pieces that reference family and my life as a cancer surivor
finger - my wife's name on my ring finger (can't wear a wedding ring for work due to safety issues)

I have a total of 15.

    I don't have any (YET) and my husband says NO way! I want mine in a "non public place" so I don't understand what his issue is.

    I love tattoos! I have 4

    1st tattoo on my right shoulder blade my husband(then boyfriend) picked it out for me when we both turned 18

    2nd tattoo lower abdomen says Smile Punk in my husbands handwriting, it's an inside joke from when we were in highschool

    3rd on my left forearm are the opening notes to amazing grace favorite song

    4th on my right side down my ribs, starting at shoulder blade all the way down to my hip Rose and Skull tattoo.

    I am getting another tattoo after I get to my goal weight!!

    I only have one so far. It's a large star in the middle of my upper back (just a few inches below my neck) with my daughter's name in it and then a smaller star on either side of the large star, black and pink are the colors. I want at least one more...I now have a son & would like his name on me as well :) And who knows what else....

    I can cover mine up for work reasons. Pants and a shirt that goes to my elbows. If I could I'd have full sleeves but work won't allow it. I have reasons for each of mine no random art so when I get old they'll still mean a lot even if they don't look as good!

    I love tatts! I have three so far: a snake dragon on my left shoulder, a cadusa dragon and tribal along my lower back and a shadow rose and moon on my right hip. I cannot wait to get my next one which will be my daughters name in Chinese with blue flames surrounding it (her personality element hottest fire:devil : )

    2...well 4.

    1 - Sunflower on my right ankle, resembling the beauty, colour, and life of my girls.

    2-4 - Chinese 'year' symbol for each of my kids birth year on my upper middle back - year of the rabbit; year of the tiger; year of the snake.

    I would love more but haven't decided what or where yet.

    I have 5 tattoos. I am planning on at least 2 more.

    1) Hibiscus flower on my lower left ankle (this is a cover up of a really bad butterfly I got when I was 18).

    2) Shooting star on my lower back (right hand side).

    3) Ring of roses around my belly button.

    4) 3 Chinese symbols on my left wrist that say "goddess", "enlightenment", and "protection".

    5) A fairy with butterfly wings with my daughter's name under her feet.

    I am hoping to get a mermaid on my upper left leg. I want to add onto my fairy with some butterflies around her colored with my Mom and Dad's birthstones.

    I have one....it is two butterflies.....one of the butterflies has a breast cancer ribbon on the tip of the wing. It represent three big milestones that happened in 2010.

    Would like to get another but not sure what or when.

    For those who got tatoos before a large amount of weight loss, do they change? I imagin the color might get darker, is this true?

    I have one tattoo...a dragonfly on the inside of my right ankle. Planning to get another one...it will be the celtic symbol for sisterhood in memory of my best friend who passed away from breast cancer 18 months ago (she was with me when I got my first tattoo).

    Looks awesome on the rib cage but mine was a PAIN! Only one that really bothered me. I have a cancer poem on my side. (in my profile pic) Hope it still looks good once I "firm" up if not at least I'll know the meaning :)

    I have one that goes down my rib cage, and I fell asleep on the table. It all depends on your pain tolerance! I was just fine!
