Would you ever get a tattoo?

No I don't like this tattoo idea at all. No matter how beautiful or ugly is the tatto, I don't feel any attraction for them. It is a real waste of time and damaging of body. One can really achive something better for so much hassle and pain. Still I am not against it.....If young generations likes it....let them enjoy it.....

I have tattoos' but Id never get a name..My brother has and now he has to get it covered over with another tat to cover it...

no, i don't think so. i think it isn't really me if i have tattoo over my skin. besides it's not good according to islam anyway.

I have thought about getting a celtic symbol of some type or even a scorpion. I have also thought it would be cool to have a celtic knot bracelet. I have even thought of having some cool dapled tattooing on one of my temples. But, it all comes down to this: I am 57 years youngs. I have never had a tatoo. I have never felt like marking up my body and paying to do so was a good thing.

hmm nope, its tooo painful!

Well when I was a teen I gave myself a tattoo. So now I am stuck with something I did when I was a crazy teenager. I hate it and wish I could get it removed. Maybe one day I will.

even though i am a christian, i dont have a problem with people getting a tat. as for me, i wouldnt get one just because i like change too much. i change my style of clothing and jewellry all the time, a tat is so well, forever! also, i am so not a fan of pain! lol!!

Actually, when you go in to get a tatoo, most good tatoo places will try to talk you out of getting a tatoo with a "lover's" name. So so many live to regret that decision that seems so good at the time. A tatoo is permanent. It is currently very popular to get a tatoo that has your child's name in it or one that represents someone that has passed on. Me? No tatoos for me. I don't like pain or needles. I think some of them are cool tho. my girls all have small ones. I do advice that a woman especially .....get one in a discreet and easy to cover area. My oldest daughter got a very pretty one on her arm just above her wrist when she was 18 and working at a convenience store and going back to school after having dropped out. how could she have predicted the turn her life would take. Fast forward...she is now 32 and married with 2 children. She works in a high banking position. That tatoo on her arm has to be covered at all times. She has a collection of very wide bracelets for summer when she wears short sleeves. At 18, I would have laughed if anyone told me that this girl would be working such a professional job. You just never know.

hi. i once had a henna tattoo just because i am curious but did not really enjoy it because it is not really my thing. somehow it makes me feel dirty. so i don't think i will ever get a permanent tatoo, it is even expensive and painful..don't see the point of having one really, just plain vanity perhaps.

Hi UK_Shree, You are right, the tattoo can be remove but it will be very very painful. Even more pain than you put the tattoo on. If i ever want to Tattoo on my body, i would like to have it on my foot. I would like to have a snake or a rose, that would be cool. But i don't think i will do that because i am so afraid of pain and i don't think my parents will be happy to see a snake tattoo on my foot. lol..

I honestly do not like having a tattoo. I find it dirty, hough Visayans find it as very artistic. One thing that makes feel negative about it is the needle used in making tattoos. I think it is not safe to anyone. It may cause harm and will result to a certain illness.

I have a tattoo, and at first I was skeptical about it, but I had nature child birth so I was like. Hey I can do anything. It didnt hurt. I have one on my lower back. A few months back I thought about getting my husband's name on me with some graphics but then I thought what if something happen... So I changed my mind. Even though I want to be with him forever its not promising and you never know what tomorrow brings. I don't want to put something on me that I may have to get removed. Not cool and No I don't think it is worth it. I do however want to get something that represents my children. They are my inspiration :)

OW.. I would like to have one in my body.. but... I dont know the "rules" in my Religion, coz, Im moslem and its not good to get a tattoo in your body especialy in part of body that must be "watering" on Wudhu ritual such hand fingers till elbow, foot fingers tillankle... But i love to get My name tattoo on my back

Well, I honestly think I would never get a tattoo, just for the fact that I don't want to mess up the way my body originally looks, even though the tattoo can be removed but why go into all that process as you've said. Tattooing my girl friend's name on my body is pointless to be honest, if I really loved her that much, then I will be better off marrying her than just tattooing her name on my body. That's my opinion..thanks for a great subject. Bilal K.

I know some people get tattoo's of the name of their lover which in my opinion is probably THE dumbest thing a person could do..the ONLY names I'd EVER have tattooed on my body is the names of my kids and one of my nicknames... Would I get a tat? Yes and I have 2 small ones but am planning on getting several more done..do i think its for everyone though? No not by any means..Nor do I think its smart to get a tat just because your friends are getting them..but thats just my opinion...

hi there, UK_Shree.. I would like to have a tattoo on my back.. I got this one-inch vertical scar on my back a couple of months ago and I've been considering a tattoo to have it fixed. I'm thinking of having just a simple Cross image on it. However, I'm still asking God if it is OK for me to get a tattoo. I actually have had my navel pierced a year ago, before I started being serious about my "spiritual life." But I've been learning that my body isn't my own -- it belongs to God and my life is really just on loan. So, I need to know clearly first if He would agree to having some "ornaments" on the skin that He lent me. happy myLotting!

I got mine when I was 19 (young and dumb LOL) and I started regreting it within a few months, but it least its in a place where its not seen unless I want it to be seen. As for putting someones name on your body, I think it's okay if its your kids or a loved one who has passed away, but I don't think I would ever put a lovers name on me because my husband would probably see it and not be too happy LOL.

It is not my thing tattoo ,I don't like pain.I know woman do get them done,but what about if you get fed up withit or don't want that name anymore you are stuck with it,there is a woman of sixty who has so many tattoos on her body she will not go on the beach or wear short sleeved blouses ,or back less dresses she hides her self away because of all the tattoos she had when she was younger and really regrets having them done.To have your mans name tattoo on you then he leaves you how awful for your new man to see his name on your body,no not for me.xxx

I don't think people shoud get tattoos I think you body should remain they way it is form the day you were born. You are natuarlly beautiful and why ruin that? You shouldn't have to put a symbol on your body to make a statement. The statement you make is in your heart. This is only my opinion.

First of all, I would never get a lover's name as a tattoo, relationships are unpredictable. But I would be interested in getting a symbol tattooed on me, you know, something that suits me and my personality best. For example, my birth sign is aquarius, if there is a symbol for aquarius, I think it would be pretty cool to have that.
