Do you regret getting a tattoo?
 

I am thinking of getting a tattoo. For those of you who have tattoos, are you still glad you got one?

Well at the time i did'nt, but today i do. I have 2 sleeves, my back, neck, and chest all done. Several that wrapps my legs. I cover everything when i can. 20 years ago i thought it was cool, now i think i went over board. a few here and there are fine, but nothing like what i have. I get stared at all the time, people just already pin point you as a criminal, it's sad to say but they do. Your appearence is everything, even in todays job market. Just think twice where your gonna put them at. If i was to do over i would'nt get any at all and used the 20 or 25k to but a nice fishing boat alot faster in my life.

I have a couple on each arm (upper area). They can be hidden with a short sleeved shirt (which I rarely wear), if I desire to do so.

I don't regret getting them. I do regret my choice of one of them, and will be looking into getting a 'cover up' tattoo over it in the near future.

I've got 4 on my upper arms that I got in 1992. They can be almost covered by a short sleeve shirt but not quite. I don't regret them at all. In fact, I would get another if I could find the right subject matter and a good artist. BTW, I'm 59 and not a biker.

Don't know if this is still the case, but used to be if you had a tattoo you would be refused if you ever wish to donate blood, or even volunteer a transfusion for a family member. That's what stopped me from ever considering a tat. G

If you are serious about getting one do some research. I just finished reading an article, about a new ink being used. Looks just like the regular ink, except, if in the future you get tired of the tat, they can hit it with a laser. The ink breaks up, and is disolved harmlessly in your system.



24 hours in a day, 24 cans in a case, you do the math

I hate my tatts, have one real big one and a couple smaller ones. I have had them for over 10 years now and would do anything to get rid of them but dont have the money. I am ready to get drunk and get out the sandpaper or try anything alternitivly thats cheap to get them off of me because I totally hate them. I keep thinking with new technology and the future I will someday be able to get them off at a reasonable fee. to me a tatto is like a prison sentence if you end up not wanting it they also can get very tacky, I always cover them up but grown sick of doing it every day espeacially in the summer time and I know I would get judged differently (espeacially where I work) If I didnt hide them. I just dont want to be tattoed anymore!! Dont do it, youll get old one day and it will get old as well.

Had one on my chest. Paid $80 for it and 10 years later had it removed by laser for around $400. Think twice about getting one. What seems like the in thing to do now may seem completely wrong in 10 years. Could have put that $480 to better use.

I have not even seen a bumper sticker I thought was worth putting op my truck.
