    So how many of you regret your tattoos?

    Thinking recently of getting a tattoo...I had something very specific in mind and went to one of the best artists in the city. After looking at my design the guy said it would have to be done larger than I had imagined and I would have to settle for something different if I wanted it on my arm.

    So I'm now having second thoughts cos I can't have exactly what I wanted...And I guess second thoughts about it all in general.

    Have any of you guys regretted getting work done or even backed out of it?

    don't get a tattoo. most people get them because they think it'll make them feel cool or look cool or er.. something. in the end its just doodling on your skin, but its a permanent doodle.

      dumb shit like this too, jesus... this guy really wants acceptance.. "HEY GUYS LOL LOOK AT THIS" although i admit, idiots that get tattoos like this are good amusement.

          Like any fashion statment only certain types can get away with certain things and look cool. For example uncle jessie from full house will always look cool witth his mullet. however billy ray cyrus could never get away with it again.

          Unfortunatly you cant just shave off tatoos..

            People who regret tattoos are simply usually those who have one (or more) for entirely the wrong reason. Usually to look 'cool'.

            I have a LOT including a full back piece and my thighs covered. They were done 15+ years ago but I've never regretted them, but then the reason for having them was/is a personal one. Very few people see my tattoos unless I'm swimming. They stop above the elbow so are very easily covered.

            So no - I don't regret them but then I thought very carefully about why I wanted them, what I wanted and the placement. The colours have lasted well as getting cancer from the sun has never beena goal of mine. That said, when they do eventualy fade enough I'll probably get them redone to keep them fresh if I decide I can go through al that pain again.

                    Should of added I'll have just the one more for now. All of my tattoos are themed around various points in my life and interests at the time. I recently lost my Mother and my final one (for now) will be a sort of memorial to her to carry on the theme. Can't see myself regretting that one either.

                      I don't regret my tattoo. If anything, I perceive it the way I view paintings by Jackson Pollock.... it's not the "painting" itself that counts as much as the process / ritual / setting involved in getting the painting done. The same way with my Chinese dragon tattoo.... it's just a visual residue of the great times I had in college. I wouldn't trade it for the world

                          I have 2 tattoos and don't regret either. I have one on my arm that I got after I miscarried and the other on my calf after my son was born.

                          If there's thought behind the tattoo and a meaning to it, you shouldn't regret it.

                              the only thing i regret about my tats, is that i was young when I started getting them
                              and ended up with a few in the sleeves that I wish I could do over, they could be much better rather than looking like jailhouse tats.
                              Having clean skin on the arms again would be great,
                              then I could get some more really nice tats.

                                    friend of my gf visited yesterday and she had huge regrets.. she's a couple of years into chinese studies and is due for a year over there.. just found out that they really look down on people with tattoos in china and she would be forced to hide them... (yeah, I started laughing heh)

                                      I was 18 when I got mine.



                                      I don't regret it, but I'm glad I can cover it by my shirt when I need to.

                                      Sometime I look at Old people and see their tatoos, you can't even tell what they are supposed to be. They just look like blobs.

                                        I have 2 and don't regret either. But I also got them in places where they can be covered when necessary. Unfortunately there are still some judgemental people around, though tattoos are becoming more and more mainstream.

                                          I dont regret any of my three and am thinking of doing another one as it has been 8 years since my last


                                          However I am glad i waited until i was 27 to get my first one

                                          If I had done one when I was 18 it would have been somehting stupid that im sure i would have regreted

                                                      I got 19 and don't regret a single 1. Tattoo is a huge trend right now. Over 35% of amricans between the age of 19-35 has at least 1 tattoo and numbers are growing while more and more teens reach 18.

After looking at my design the guy said it would have to be done larger than I had imagined and I would have to settle for something different if I wanted it on my arm.

                                                            So I'm now having second thoughts cos I can't have exactly what I wanted...And I guess second thoughts about it all in general.

                                                            Have any of you guys regretted getting work done or even backed out of it?

                                                            I don't regret my work, there is one that I wish I had just about a half in lower. At the time though, it was just where I wanted it.

                                                            If you guy is telling you have to "settle", start looking for someone else.

                                                            I do things

                                                                About 30% of my body is tattoo'd. All of them mark a certain point in my life and have a lot of meaning to me.

                                                                Anyone that is part of the "Big Tattoo Club" can back me up on this. Random people feel they have the right to walk up and start asking me questions about why I get them etc.... That lack of privacy bugs me.

                                                                                Anyone that is part of the "Big Tattoo Club" can back me up on this. Random people feel they have the right to walk up and start asking me questions about why I get them etc.... That lack of privacy bugs me.

                                                                                One of the advantages of being UK based - people are usually too reserved to do that Even at the pool very few stare 'openly' so as not to appear rude. It's very easy to forget you even have them here.
