do what YOU want .... Girls are over-rated sometimes lol 0 -
You should get whatever you want. One word of warning though....tattoo's are very addictive. Once you get one you will want another one. Go for it!!!!0

thanks,,
oooh i know yeaaa! this will be my 4th tattoo since feb 2011!! hahaha.! i love getting tattooed!0 -
Hmm, I wouldn't, but that's just me being me.
I'm aware Colt is the name of your younger brother, but others may not know that and may think it's the name of your partner or son rather than brother. I'm not saying that either of those being called Colt would be wrong, but people may incorrectly assume?
It's up to you, I wouldn't as I said, because that's me and the incorrect assumptions, if any, would bother/annoy me.0 -
It's your body!!0

I love tattoos, go for it! Be prepared to wanting more ink soon0

Well, in that case it's cool.
You just see to many ex's names on *kitten*, so I wanted to save you from that if that was the direction this was going. :laugh:0 -
It is totally up to you, and if you love it, then go ahead.
I'd be a bit wary about tattoos that couldn't be hidden (for job interviews etc), so side of the hand is very exposed.....0 -
I really like tattoos but I don't have any, too much of a commitment! Only thing I would say is getting it on your hand may not be the best place for work if you want to be in any sort of professional setting. I think only places that you can cover (like upper arm, shoulder, etc) just in case!0
-
Do it! Tattoos are the ****0
-
Depending on your profession, be careful about where your tattoos are. Anything above the neck or below the wrists may cause problems when finding a job.
Not to be a hater, I love tattoos, I just want you to also have a successful career!0 -

hahaha lool! even if i was married with kids - i still wouldnt have the hubbys names inked on me 0 -
I have my kids names tatooed on my left chest, over my heart.0

I want hundreds of tattoos!
1) Im a wiccan so i want the upright pentacle somewhere on my body, preferably above my heart, or maybe cheekily on my bum cheek, or just above my bum..
2) My witch name in the theban alphabet tattooed onto the side of probably my right hand.
3) My fionces names, either above my heart or just above my bikini line on the right hand side.
4) On the bottom of one foot "made in england". For giggles, but i dont think i could take the ticklyness..
5) Property of 'fionces full name' tattooed on to the bottom of my other foot. Also for giggles and to make him happy lol.
6) I have a total obsession for werewolves and wolves, would love to get maybe a tiny wolf somewhere im not sure..
7) Very sad but when i was younger had a massive obsession with pokemon and wouldnt mind a tiny ninetales tattooed onto me.
8) I would like a pretty pattern somewhere lol..
9) And nearlly forgot as i am a scorpio i want the astronomical sign, along with its 3 representations, the scorpion, eagle and resurrected phoenix.
And thats it for now lol.
I dont actually have any tattooes atm. =/
Although i did get like a small inkless circle to see how it felt.0 -
Sounds fine, I dont see how that is boyish at all. I just got my first tattoos yesterday. You can see them in my pic.0
-
I think whether it seems more like a boy tattoo or not, you should get it, if that's what you want. You're putting something on your body that's going to last forever so it should be only what you want and no one else's opinion should matter.0
-
I have one on my left forearm. and about 8more that i want to get. its sooo addicting. lol0
-
I know a few girls with script on the side of the hand, all of them hairdressers and they don't look boyish to me after seeing them.
It does fade very quickly though as the ink has a hard time staying in the skin on hands. I've heard celebs with hand tattoos often colour them in with sharpies before being seen on TV, this made me giggle a bit. Not sure if the Sharpie thing is strictly true though! Lol :-)0 -
Good advice. I don't have any tattoos at all but recently found out that our company - a large national media corporation - has a policy against hiring anyone with a visible tattoo. Since I learned of it I've found that it's not uncommon.0
-
If you're not sure about it don't do it! especially on a place as visable as your hand. i have one around my wrist that I do really love but sometimes, especially in job interviews, think it was maybe not the best placement... the other 5 that i can hide more easily were probably better choices lol0
-
I would but maybe not on the hand but maybe on the inside of the wrist instead. my friends and i have our kids names or initials all over..true story i have my husband's name covered by an anklet but i have over 10 tattoos some i regret some i still adore but they tell a story of where i have been and how far i have come. I have been getting them since i was 19 do your home work and make sure it isn't going to be in a place that's going to screw up your chance for a job or boyfriend or anything. When i am fully dressed you would never know to look at me that i have all my ink that i have but i own every bit of it!0
-
Sounds good. One question, why the hand? Please becareful and use caution when getting tat's that you cant cover up easily. Alot of "professtional" careers do not allow ink work and it could hurt your chances of being hired. YES, i know, they wont tell you that up front because they cant.
My experience, I worked at a school, (instructor for truck driving school), in the summers I could not wear shorts because I have tattoos on my legs. It was their policy that the workers could not show tat's.
Like I said, sound good. Please post pic when done 0 -
May I ask how old you are? You look quite young from your profile photo. Unless you're well off or currently working a stable job in an industry where they don't care about tattoos, you should think really heavily before getting anything below the wrists.
I wanted a tattoo in the exact same position when I was around 19, but the artist I went to refused to tattoo below the wrist on anyone under 35. I ended up going with a different idea, and I'm so thankful to this day that I didn't get that tattoo. I haven't quite ended up where I want to be yet, and I've had to get jobs where I have to hide my tattoos.
Don't think I'm one of those "*shakes finger* No one can get a job with tattoos!" type of people. I've got a near full sleeve on my right arm and various other tattoos scattered around. I'm just being realistic and making sure you really think this through. A hand tattoo is next to impossible to conceal. There are plenty of other areas on your body to get tattooed that are still highly visible and possible to hide.
Times are a lot different than they used to be, but you will still run into prejudice against people with tattoos. I work in a job where no one but co-workers see me yet I've still got to cover my artwork. It's not ideal but right now it pays the bills until I get to where I want to be. I'm happy I have the option to still have my art while putting money in the bank.
Also, don't be the type of person I was when I told the tattoo artist, "I don't care! I'll never have a job where they can't accept me for who I am." When you're staring at an empty life-saving medicine bottle/pantry/gas tank/wallet, it's a whole different story. You don't want a decision you made when you were younger to prevent you from providing for yourself/family in the future.
Anyways, that's the end of my novel. If you do decide to go through with it, there's absolutely nothing "boyish" about the location you named.0 -
You want a tattoo of a small japanese hatchback?

I'm a big fan of tattoo's. Unfortunately perception is 90% of reality. All 8 of mine are covered if I'm wearing shorts and a t-shirt, I got them for me after all. I've seen too many people who couldn't get the jobs they wanted because the person doing the hiring didn't like seeing the ink. Many people still look at tattoo's as trashy and sociopathic (my parents for 2!!). Yes it's your body, but whether we like it or not people will still make judgements until humanity is no longer. We can't change human nature, we have to weigh the consequences of our actions. I'm still saving up for #9. My daughters birth foot print surounded with a 17th century Naval compas, right between the shoulder blades!!0

Sound OK to me so long as you are not getting your boyfriend's name done.
Oops.0 -
What field do you anticipate working? If it is a professional field, you may want to rethink the location. Visible tattoos can be off-putting in some office environments. Otherwise, it is your body and your life.0
