Where should I put my tattoo?

I put all mine in discreet areas...both wrists ( I wear bracelets or long sleeves and no one knows), top of my foot, back of my neck, the top of my back and lower middle back. So nobody knows I have any unless I want to show them

Good luck and congrats on your weight loss!!!

Hip or on the top of your foot.

I have the chinese symbol for "Bring to Justice" on the inside of the wrist. It's not overt and in your face, but it's not covered up either and I love that! I have 3 others that are mostly covered so I like this one the best (others are left ankle, right hip,left shoulder) Enjoy your reward! Also, I agree with the person who said if you aren't sure, have the artist make several stencils to try in different spots.

I've always been envious of people who put the tattoo on their neck "under" their hair. I think it's awesome looking and you can hide it if you need to, I've just always been too afraid to get one there! LOL

I have one on my hip in the front like near the bone, one on my side down by my hip, one on my side on my rib cage, and one on my shoulder blade. If I get another, it will be on my outer thigh, like the region on your side that's covered if you wore some tighty-whities lol

I vowed to only get tattoos in my mid section from now on, places that only show in bikinis or when I want them to, like with crop tops. Because my shoulder one shows too often, anytime I'm at an event where I wear a dress that is a tank top or sleeveless, it shows. I don't mind explaining to everyone that I'm nerdy enough to have a tattoo of DNA or what the latin means, but sometimes it gets old. I'd rather have them just appreciate it and move on haha.

Double check with someone who knows the language that that symbol means perseverance before you get the tattoo!! For example I have a tattoo that's in latin, but I know it means what it means because it's the motto of a top university, and I trust they know what they're talking about lol

I just got one on my left wrist. I like being able to look down and see it. I can also hide it with a watchband if I need to.

on your front thigh. about 7 inches above your knee. it looks cute when you wear short shorts but its still high enough to hide when you wear dresses. I'm getting one there on my right leg this weekend!

i want to get something to signify the "end" of my journey to lose weight....if i get a tummy tuck i'll be getting one and putting it on my newly "flat" hip....if i dont get the tuck i'll get one and put it someone else...i have considered getting a gold star or maybe a symbol of some kind signifying how hard i have worked to go from 263 (highest) to 140-150 my eventual lowest (could be modified once i get where ever i'm going lol)

i like the hip...i have a tramp stamp (lower back above my tush) from before and i like that place too...noone sees but my hubby or my kids lol....sometimes it peaks out if my pants ride down but no one is supposed to see it lol....

good luck and i think it is a great idea....

Right where I just put mine Always liked them right where the neck meets the shoulders. I work in an environment where it needs to be covered up....

Love tattoos but my feelings on them is there are times and places where they are somewhat inappropriate, which is why I put them in places that can be covered if necessary.

Good luck! love the design

If you dont have an idea as to where you want the tattoo placed... then you are not ready to get the tattoo. It show uncertainty. Go to a tattoo shop, have them make you a stencil and place it in different areas of your body. Then you can look at all the stencil marks to help you decide.

This!!! honestly, if u don;t know where you want your tattoo placed, DONT GET IT. It is seriously one of the biggest mistakes people make.. i wanted both my ankles tattooed when i was 18,... i waited a full year to make sure I would still want it in the same place and that I even still wanted it. I am stoked I got it now and waited because I ended up changing it from my wrist to my ankle. My ankle was pretty painful because its all bone, But better then my wrist so I can at least cover it up for work... I have both my shoulder blades, side, ankles, and calves done. And if you looked at me, you wouldn't even be able to tell because I can cover all of them.. idk, I see my tattoos as something meaningful to myself..not something to be flashed around for others. I took a lot of time in figuring out placement, color, and design. The main piece of advice I can give, is just make sure you REALLY want it and REALLY love the place you get it. I like not seeing my tattoos everyday. Because when i actually look and see them in pictures, they are so beautiful and meaningful to me. It makes me so happy that I waited so long and thought about where and when I would get them instead of immediately scarring up my body with something I would have hated in a year. Anyways, good luck!!! I think going to a tattoo shop and having some stencils put on you is a good idea. because honestly, once you see it in a certain place, you'll know!

Love tattoos but my feelings on them is there are times and places where they are somewhat inappropriate, which is why I put them in places that can be covered if necessary.

I totally agree! Mine are all places that can be covered when necessary and shown when appropriate.

This!

Hey instead of chinese, how about a traditional Scottish sign for perseverance? :P

(without lyrics)



Whole town build around that symbol, I think it looks well cool, but then again I would :P

Plus if you ever went to Leith you'd look like you belonged :L
