I put this under "skincare" cause I wasn't sure where it would be best. But what do you ladies think?

Do you think they're cool or a horrible idea? Or are you in the middle and think as long as they are tasteful and discreet that they are acceptable?

And if you have any ink post a pic!!

I have 2. One on my ribs and one on my hip.

I enjoy mine because both have special meaning and I think that's important.

I have 3 and plan on getting more. I love them! And in modern society I hope for a day when they don't need to be covered up so much.

I love tattoos! But it shouldn't matter to other people what you put on your body.

@Casey I love the flower. Is it on your shoulder? @Cassandra I know what you mean. I personally put mine in places that are easily covered because I plan to go into the business field when I finish with school and employers tend to frown upon them because a lot of people view it as being unprofessional. And while I understand why, it shouldn't be a deciding factor in whether it not you get a job if you work hard and love what you do.

I don't have any tattoos (commitment issues, lol), but as long as they're tasteful, I think they're great.

I have my lovely "I will sing" in Hebrew. I've never regretted it. I love body art, and while I don't plan on getting much more ink, I love to look at it on others. It's such a wonderful way to express yourself (so long as it's well done. ALWAYS go to a professional. And no, your cousin's friend who tattoos people in his mom's basement doesn't count. Go somewhere that has a good reputation for being hygienic and safe. Safety is the most important thing!).

I think they're beautiful. They make a person who they are. But I'd rather tasteful meaningful tattoos over a butterfly. I have a pink orchard on my left side shoulder (close to my heart) for my grandma who acted as my mother my whole life an adored orchids. And a peace sign on the back of my neck.

I have mixed emotions because of certain circumstances.
People always use the 'you're going to regret it when you're old in wrinkly' and they have a point. If you look back when your 89 and see a wrinkle little infinity sign that was 'hip' way back when you may not be too happy with yourself. But at the same time when you look back and see a reminder of someone you love it will be nice to reminisce, keep you young in a sense. I feel like people rush to get tattoos too fast these days because hey they saw a cute picture of one all over tumblr and they want the exact same thing, and I hate that. It's like permanently sporting around a trend. Might as well slap a big UGGS logo on your chest while you're at it. I have a heart on my collar bone, me and my mom got matching ones to symbolize the heart surgery I had to go through last year, and for me it'll be a constant reminder that I got through it. So in that sense I love them, because they will always be there to remind you of the good times, of what you love and who you are.

Well it annoys me when people want tumblr type tattoos and they want really unorginal tattoos I don't think every tattoo has to be deep and meaningful but the generic dream catchers and demi jesus cross on finger and etc. and if you get a tattoo and get a laser removal surgery you can still be left with some permenant scar some people are just so stupid with them.

I love tattoos, and I think as long as YOU love what you're getting, it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks. Obviously tattoos are permanent, extremely pricey and painful to remove, etc.etc.. and therefore you should definitely allow some time to really think if a certain tattoo is something you really want, but do whatever you want. Even if it's something that you just find aesthetically pleasing over something with deep meaning.

With that being said, there are some seriously tacky tattoos out there. For the love of yourself and everyone around you, please don't get "Princess" tattooed on your boob or some dude's name tattooed on you. :)

I don't think you should get a tattoo because it is bad for you skin.

I like tattoos, but only if they look good and are in the right places. Also I think that if you have more tattoos they have to suit each other:-)

What do you all think of the French style tattoos? I adore how they look but I don't understand them, or even think there is something there to understand in them, which, unfortunately, is why I wouldn't get one, but I'd like to hear your opinions.
