I dunno...
When I was younger, I always thought I'd like to keep my skin as natural as possible, along with my hair -which is partially the reason why I never got a perm/relaxer.
But I DO like to draw/write on my skin.

If I ever did anything...
it'd have to be henna.

And even though tattoos are cute, I've also seen a LOT of horror stories/bad experiences.
From misspelled words to pretty tragic art work.
smh
Henna tattoos can be permanent if you have a skin reaction. (generally only occurs with black henna, not natural henna) Remember to ask before you get them done. It would be awful to end up with an ugly scar from something you thought was temporary.

Here's an article and pictures if you're interested in learning more.

I've heard about "Black henna."
Ugh it sounds horrible.
It's not even really henna, rather some sort of chemical dye, if I remember correctly.

But I don't think I'd have to worry about it.
If I want black ink, I'll draw on myself with black pen.

I wanna the reddish browns, and siennas, if I get a henna... ou mehndi as it's traditionally called.:' 3

I like tattoos, as long as they are meaningful and well placed. I have a few. I have a star on my ankle and my wrist and a tiny heart on the side of my wrist.

I like tattoos, but I prefer it when people put a lot of thought at the very least into their tats. I have too many friends that have a ridiculous amount of them because they spur of the moment get them and then now they're on the fence whether they like them or not. I have 1 I got it about 3 - 4 years ago its on my calf and its the nintendo controller. I've wanted it since I was 13 so I'm glad I got it. Here's a pic:

I think I would only get a tatoo, only if I really really liked one, and think it would still look good and I would be happy with it when I'm old. Like I plan on being a nurse, so I don't know like if I put a R.N or something like the nursing cross on my wrist.

Sharpies are win. My friends girlfriend sits behind me in one class (And I tend to sit at an angle with my arm on the desk behind me) so she has a tendency to write on my arm all class.
Free tattoos would be win xD

I really hope those LED tattoos are real, and available soon.

Money is the only thing stopping me from a tattoo.
My bestie says he'll cover me as long as I get a piercing with him too. But I'm not getting any more holes in me. I only want pretty artwork. xd

I love tattoos... I'm just too much of a wimp to get one myself. They sound pretty dang painful to get, plus they're permanent, unless you want to give your flesh burned off. Ow.
I'm not sure what I'd get if I did decided to get one. Probably something small and meaningful since they are, once again, permanent.

I used to do that all the time...sharpies are fun. The real thing is fun too though. I enjoy getting tattooed...the whole process is nice.

I love tattoos and any form of body art like piercings and scarification.
Tattoos can be gorgeous when done by an experienced artist.
I plan on getting a full back tattoo as soon as I am eighteen. I also want my legs legs and various other parts of my body tattooed as well.
The beauty of getting a tattoo is that it shows a bit of who you are. It's a way to express yourself through art.

I don't mind tattoos for the most part. If I were to get any, I'd get black lines going down both of my arms, tribal style. Dunno why, I've just always liked the look of that.

Tattoos are wonderful, and I've been wanting one for years.

But they're too popular now. A lot of people in my generation have gotten several, and they kinda killed it for me. They're young, poor adults, spending hundreds of dollars on something they can't really afford. Very sad. And to be lumped in as another young adult that has a tattoo; no. Can't do it. I'll never get one now.

As a cultural phenomenon, I adore it. I wish I came from a place that did ritualistic tattooing as a right of passage or something. Tribal tattoos are beautiful; but can be insulting to some if I'm not actually apart of the culture. So I'm left out on that too.

But for those who love tattoos and getting tattoos, keep getting them. I will always love the artistic expression on human flesh.

I LOVE tattoos.... well ones that aren't trashy and meaningless :) I will probably get at least one in my life... I have a dragonfly design that I am saving up money for so that I can have it on my side... it's important to me because i feel dragonflies are a symbol of beauty and freedom and I can't wait :D

but in short in I love ink :D

I don't have one now, but I might get one in the future.

I have no idea what I would get, though.

My friend just got a blue rose on her ankle.

I want a tattoo SO BAD! My mother told me that for my 18th birthday I can get one (: I'm 16 now and not quite sure as to what it is I want. I did a tattoo on myself a year ago... but it faded because I'm not tattoo artist and I didn't have the right ink or needle or anything. Haha. D:

I'd like to have one, but I'm too much of a pansy to actually be able to go through with it.
Careful if you want to live and work in Japan. Other countries might do this too, but in Japan, employers are not very fond of employees having tattoos. It makes you look like you're affiliated with the yakuza. D:

I just got back from getting another tattoo.
Huge picture alert:

It's the Coheed dragonfly, and yes, it's supposed to look messy.
The blotchiness I'm getting fixed up as soon as it heals; my skin doesn't like green ink, apparently. D=

So, my tongue piercing (that I got last week) is healing up nicely, and that means it's time to start thinking about the next piercing. I already have my eyebrow pierced and my ears are pierced once. I am trying to decide between getting snake bites, an industrial, or piercing my nose.

So, Mene-zins... What piercings do you have, if any? What do you want to get pierced?

And while we're at it, let's talk ink as well.

Any particularly awesome tattoos around here?

Well, I have my nose pierced, and my ears are gauged.
I actually really want to get a second piercing on my ear, but I don't think I should until I'm done stretching. :gonk:

A while ago I wanted to get my lip pierced, but I figured it would become annoying if it got snagged on anything, or when I'm eating. :drool:

I have no idea what would look good on you or anything, but I think industrials look pretty cool in general. :-D
