You are certainly entitled to your opinion... :lmao: Now tell us how you really feel.

:shrug: It's a deeply personal thing... or at least it should be, IMHO. For people who do full body art, everything usually has a deep meaning to them, and often times, the images they carry on their skin is threrapuetic and comforting.

I don't believe in doing it for shock value, but for those who do it for more personal reasons, I have no issue at all. I'd rather see tats like these than barbed wire or tribal symbols or a stuff liekt hat that's just 'fad' ish.

If I see another butterfly, winnie the pooh, chinese symbol, or "v" shaped flower vine...I am gonna puke. I LOVE old school navy style tats..sailor jerry, etc.. mine don't really have any deep spiritual meaning...I just like them :shrug: but I am running out of discreet ladylike places to put them.. :LMAO:

How about the wings that girls get on their backs lol it was nice the first time I saw it, now ::dead:. To each their own though, what's not good for me is fine for someone else :) I have to admit my first tattoo was Piglet on my lower tummy...I was 18 at the time. Me and Piglet have been through a lot and he had a close call with a c-section incision but I still have a soft spot for that goofy tat.
When people go to a tattoo shop and just pick something from the flash I think, what the heck are you doing? But again, to each their own.
I love the old school tats too, I think you'll find the artists at No Regrets to be amazing, they do a lot of old school style art.

My first tattoo at 18 was sup to be a sailor jerry type panther on my stomach..only of course I didnt have the cash that a piece like that needs..and the artist was likely high as a kite when he did it (loved the piercer there at snakemans..the tattoo artist..not so much) and it is basically a very crudely drawn cat-like black outline in my stomach. Once babies are done ..im gonna put some cash down and get a realllly nice piece to cover it.

No tats for me; only one I would have considered many years ago was a Janis Joplin type bracelet.
I do not understand-or like- neck tats. It just kind of creeps me out.

My mom works with a woman who has a snake that goes around her neck and down her cleavage. Wierds my mom out big time, LOL.

Guess it's better than a live snake. :lol:

Haha I had a Florida King (white and black) that was given to me... had him for years.. about 6 feet long. He'd drape around my neck and twist himself like a tie down my chest.

I used to go out with him just chillin' there, and people though he was fake. If I whistled he pop his head up and 'scent' my nose with his tongue, and everyone would freak.

Crazy snake. I know they are'nt warm and fuzzy like puppies and kittens but he was cool... he'd 'wait' for me to take him out of the tank every afternoon. Heh.

Ahh memories.
