Posted June 10, 2011 There's a spot kind of between my shoulder blades right at the base of my neck that isn't boney and has a good amount of muscle/skin. That's where I was thinking about. I can take a lot of pain though. I'm the largest clutz in the world and I see a huge red and purple bruise on me and I go "... What was that from? I don't even remember it..." I might have the musical heart right over my actual heart. It's all about nerve endings. I'm not entirely sure, but I think there are a lot of nerve endings on the spine, which is what would make it hurt. And ribs is one of the most painfil. Because there are a lot of nerve endings because that's where vital organs are at, plus all the bone. Top of the feet suck too. My friend Josiah got a tatto there. His take on it was "It didn't feel like they were giving me a tattoo... It felt like they were just taking a box cutter and slicing my feet open." Share this post Link to post
Posted June 10, 2011 I can't wait until i am old enough to get a tatoo. Haha my sister said it would be her graduation present to me! Share this post Link to post
Posted June 10, 2011 I currently don't have a tattoo, but maybe I'll get one in some months/years. Share this post Link to post

I might do it slightly to the side of my spine, but still relatively in the middle in that case. As for the dragon on my lower back, I'm still going to do that, but I'm going to break some super awesome headphones, my laptop, numb the area with ice a lot, and take a benadryl so I'm half asleep .

Posted June 11, 2011 I have a wolf on my right shoulder, black, white and grey, nothing major special about it or anything.. oh, hey, there's that link to it! Yup, that's my wolf I will be getting a second one once I get the money saved up and some time. It'll be a dragon on my left shoulder, I have a design in mind but am keeping that underwarps for now as it's not only personal but I dun want anyone to steal it Only 2 people know of it so far besides that, and I trust them deeply with it Share this post Link to post
Posted June 11, 2011 I'd love to have a tatoo, but I'd look odd with one because I don't look like the type of person who'd have one. I'm not old enough for one anyway. Maybe when I get older I'll look like I should have a tatoo and get one. Share this post Link to post
Posted June 11, 2011 I'd never get a tattoo, but if I did I'd get a section of Rachmaninov's Op. 16 No. 4 wrapped around my upper arm. Share this post Link to post
Posted June 11, 2011 im never going to get a tattoo but once i got a hena tatttoo on my back by my sis. It was a sun on the right solderblad with bitterflys coming out of it and in math these guys who sat behind me (that day I wore a open back shirt) were aguing weather or not it was real. "Dued! It can't be real! shes to young!" "But its so detailed!" "But can't be!" "Shes got awesome parents!" Share this post Link to post

Posted July 10, 2011 I've considered getting a tattoo at some point, until I found out that while the procedure for having the tattoo applied is standerized, the ingredients of the inks are not. There's so many different 'recipes' out there for tattoo inks and you (general) don't know is in any of them: some of that stuff is likely toxic and will mess you up later in life. So...until the recipe for the inks is standized and approved by the FDA...I am not getting a tattoo. Just as a quick comment on this: Humans are not standardized and the way we react to things is in no way standard either. Just because the FDA approves something does not make it safe for one and all, nor even safe for most. My suggestion would be to do your research. If you want a tattoo, look into the inks being used and find out about them. Something tells me that if you requested certain inks from a tattoo artists, a respectable one would be happy to oblige.

Posted July 10, 2011 (edited) I didn't know this topic existed, so I started one about dragon tattoos and then it was closed lol. I wanted to know if anyone has any dragon tattoos or wants to get a dragon tattoo, the story behind the dragon, and possibly some pics! I have 2 tattoos already (an angel wing on each wrist) and I've been itching to get another. My next one is definitely going to be a dragon(s). I almost made the appointment yesterday but needed the money for something else They are such beautiful creatures, and I love the meaning behind them - especially that they are protectors. My boyfriend is my protector, he likes dragons as well, and one day I will be the protector of our children. SO, I can't think of a better tattoo to get! I know, I know, people say it's bad luck to get a tattoo dedicated to a significant other, but it's not like I'm getting his name tattooed on me. Anyway, it would be something that can be altered/covered if anything were to happen. However, we've been together for 4 years next month, and we know we are "The ONE's" for each other so I doubt it will be a problem lol. I'm not the most creative person in the world and I can't draw for the life of me. I came up with a few ideas, one in particular was inspired by the Daydream sprites pose - the female on the bottom, male hovering over kissing her, with room for possible baby dragons to be added someday since I will be their protector I'd love to have a tatoo, but I'd look odd with one because I don't look like the type of person who'd have one. I'm not old enough for one anyway. Maybe when I get older I'll look like I should have a tatoo and get one. It doesn't matter if you look like 'the type of person' who would have a tattoo or not. There are no rules, and there is not a certain look that people have to have in order for them to have a tattoo. That's like saying, "But he doesn't LOOK gay..." You get a tattoo for YOURSELF, because you want one, b/c it means something to you, etc. Not for anyone else. Edited July 10, 2011 by kissxthestarz Share this post Link to post
Posted July 10, 2011 I always wanted a blue dragon wrapped around a crescent moon But I'm under aged so yeah. Share this post Link to post
Posted July 10, 2011 I've thought that getting a tattoo would be cool. I like the long, flowy ones that go across backs or wrap down and around your arm. I don't like the single one, like just a pawprint or a butterfly on an arm or tailbone are all that attractive. I thought getting wings or a bird or just some sort of winding vine-like design across my shoulder blades and possibly wrapping around my collarbone would be awesome. Unfortunately, I'm underage and my parents wouldn't approve. D: So I'd need to wait until I moved out. Share this post Link to post
Posted July 10, 2011 I've never settled on a design for long enough to actually get it tattooed. Plus the boyfriend would probably kill me Share this post Link to post
Posted July 10, 2011 In the past I hadn't really put much thought into getting a tattoo, for various reasons, but then my dad got two tattoos, my mom got one fairly large one, and my friends started getting small but fashionable and meaningful tattoos. All of these people I would have never thought the "tattoo type", but hey, things change! Now that I've been more exposed to how to get a tattoo, why to choose a design, and how to take care of it, I'm slightly more open to getting one in the future. I'm thinking something small, maybe accenting or somehow hiding my birthmark above my bottom that I'm slight embarrassed of. One thing I'm cautious about is getting it infected somehow, since even with top care my past piercings have become infected or otherwise painful, despite the piercers reassuring me that if I followed the instructions, nothing would go wrong.

Posted July 10, 2011 I'd love to get a dragon done. On my right shoulder blade. Typical western type, and I'd like it to look like it's kinda hanging on to my shoulder with it's claws. Tis unlikely I'll get it, though. My partner really doesn't like tattoos all that much, and I do already have one. I promised him I wouldn't get one without at least discussing it with him first. There's no actualy control here - if I really wanted it I could go out and get it - but as I consider a relationship to be a partnership I wouldn't want to do anything he would be seriously unhappy about. Same as he wouldn't do anything he knew I'd be seriously unhappy about either. Share this post Link to post

To be fair, piercings and tattoos are very different. It sounds like you might have an allergy to certain metals. Maybe you can talk to a doctor first about your various infections and ask if there is a test you can take to see if you would have a reaction to tattoo ink. Or maybe you can get something super-tiny and very hidden first, just to see how your skin reacts to it. Share this post Link to post

Posted July 11, 2011 Never found a design I liked enough to permanently ink onto my body... But who knows, lol. Admittedly, too many tattoos is unattractive to me. And as one ages they don't look so great either... Share this post Link to post
Posted July 11, 2011 I want to get a tattoo on my back; I either want a coral reef setting with a shark in open waters, or a chinese dragon. Share this post Link to post
Posted July 11, 2011 No tattoos for me, I don't think I'd be able to withstand the pain (and I hate needles). I also don't like the thought of putting something on my body that I'll never be able to change my mind about. And that might get yucky and faded as I grow older~ Share this post Link to post
Posted July 11, 2011 I love this. I hope you know I love this. Thank you for loving this :] I wanted a unicorn tattoo so badly, but the ones I found were so cheesy. So I got a unicorn skeleton. A tiny part of me believes there is a real one buried somewhere Share this post Link to post
