Tuesday, January 01, 2013 6:09:35 PM sure it looks good now but what about in 20 years? Ink moves, just sayin. You think it's going to be a handicap when it comes to getting laid at the nursing home, huh? I always say one of the dumbest reasons to avoid getting a tattoo is some misguided belief that it'll look terrible when you're old. I've got news for you: we're all going to look terrible when we get old; it's the natural order of things. The trick is to at least look as if you might have had some fun once during life's journey, part of which involves doing whatever you wish with your own body whilst you're still young enough to enjoy it. |

Tuesday, January 01, 2013 8:52:50 AM @Jeep Jones, I imagine most of my skin will look less than pretty in 20 years time. I don't have tattoos myself but what my ageing body will look like 20 years down the line is not something I should be worrying about. |

Monday, December 31, 2012 4:41:38 PM Thats how tattoos start out is tracing... I wouldnt want someone to free-hand a tattoo on me, especially if its a face! What if they got the spacing wrong or got an eye too low? Also, they do it so you can see if you want the tattoo in that location as well or if it needs to be moved up/down/etc. |
