Your opinion on chest tattoos on women?
Soooo I'm considering getting a tattoo done not just a small flower or butterfly but a piece generally triangle shaped on my chest(After I put more thought into my design and the meaning). I love tattoos and piercing but the main reason I want a chest tattoo is to cover a heart surgery scar that I've had since age 4... Im 21 now and its somewhat faded but Im still self conscience about my scar. I know getting the tattoo will give me more confidence to wear low cut shirts and dresses that I NEVER EVER EVER WEAR outside my home. I plan to have a career in teaching but I am more then comfortable wearing high-cut attire.... since ive been doing it for this long. So can you give your opinion on what you think about chest tattoos on women. Im not worried about the inevitable sagging at 50 something issue more so when im like in my late 20s early 30s meeting some guys parents, picking a dress for my wedding..... and not trying to die alone...... you know the general
What is your opinion on tattoos?
I am wondering what people think about them. I am NOT thinking about getting one. I hate them with a passion. I think that they are a waste of money, gaudy, and they make someone who isn't trashy, look very much so. To me, they are a blemish to skin. I wonder if most people who have them, regret it. I am a 16 year-old girl just for the record in case anyone is wondering. I am going to be a junior, and even when I was a freshman, I saw many of my classmates with tattoos. When I was a sophomore, I saw tons of freshman fresh-picked from the 8th grade, with huge tattoos. Why would parents let their 14 or 15 year old child get a tattoo?? Most of the time when I would ask somebody about their tattoo, they would say that their parents let them get one for their birthday. I think that this is ridiculous.. Here is another example. I have a boyfriend whose mother is a RN. She is covered in tattoos, and has her nose and tongue pierced. How she got the job, I have no clue. She has quite a few tattoos down one arm, a small one that is clearly visible on her chest, and a large fairy on her other arm. My boyfriend's stepfather also has many tattoos. Just a huge sleeve of weird tattoos on one arm, and a naked lady on the other. He is a delivery guy and is required to wear an athletic sleeve to cover up his tattoos at work. Now, both of them are very nice, and they are very easy to get along with. I sometimes wonder if they regret it, but then I seriously doubt it because they keep getting more and more.. Also noted, I go to a very small high school, which houses about 700 kids.
What is your opinion on getting facial tattoos?
When I first got into tattoos at 18, I seriously thought about getting my face tattooed. I was in a shop where there were a LOT of people with facial tattoos. My colleague drew a really pretty design on my face and I was all, “Let’s do this shit!”He said that I should wear it around for a while and see how it felt being “a star” everywhere I went. So I did. He took me to meet his ex wife who had a facial tattoo. She told me that she was washing big-rigs for a living because no-one else would hire her. She also talked about how people assumed she was “wild”. She said, “I was, for one afternoon.”Granted, this was Houston in the 1980s. So different then than now, but not much really.I also wanted to tell you that there was a guy that was waiting in front of my tattoo shop one morning before we opened. He had a lot of tattoos on his face. My first thought (ME, a tattoo artist!!!) was, “shit, this guy’s gonna want a job and I’m going to have to tell him no.” Turns out he wanted more body tattoos and was the nicest guy. I judged him. I’m not proud of that, but I did. My gut reacted.In his one man show, Mike Tyson expressed regret about his face tattoo. The only tattoo he regrets.You already know the attention that comes with being heavily tattooed. I don’t know where you are from, maybe it is not as extreme, socially there. We are social animals, humans. A lot of our identity comes from being able to move within our societies.It’s your body. You do what you want.I personally, like to be able to pass for a “normie”, lol. Especially in situations where my heavily tattooed body would put me at a strategical disadvantage.
Do chest tattoos hurt?
I agree with Daniel Super. All tattoos hurt, period, end of story.But...It might be a little exagerated. Some people are so affraid of that pain that they never even go get that tattoo they've always wanted. That's how bad tattoos "look like they hurt". For some people it hurts much more than what it seems to hurt, and for others it is the other way around. I believe I'm somewhere in the middle.I have a tattoo in my left ribcage, it hurted like hell, I almost fainted. I had it retouched a couple of years later - didn't hurt as much. Last year, I made a complete makeover of it. Pratically a new tattoo on top of the old one. Did it hurt? Yes, it did, a lot! But by no means it resembled that first experience. Not by a million miles.So, there are a lot things to consider here. Is this your first tattoo? Do you already have tattoos in really painful-to-get-tattoos-places like the lower part of you biceps, ribcage, feet, etc?Just a bit of curiosity very related here: do you know how do first-responders find out if a person is unconscious or sleeping? They rub their knuckles really hard against the externum, because it is so sensitive that the intense pain will wake anyone immediately. Try it on yourself. So, hmmm, yeah, it might hurt more than "just a little" as most people with a needle will tell you! :PEDIT:Just saw this on Mashable (The 10 most painful places to get a tattoo).
Forearm Tattoo Question?
I am a 20 year old male college student strongly considering getting a tattoo on each of my lower forearms stretching from the elbow to a few inches from the wrist so that they could both be concealed under long sleeves. I plan for my right forearm to say "Noblesse" and my left forearm to say "Oblige" together forming "Noblesse Oblige" and I plan for both to be in the font located at this URL: http://www.fontspace.com/aldus/royal Noblesse oblige is a French phrase literally meaning "nobility obliges". The Dictionnaire de l’Académie française defines it thus: Whoever claims to be noble must conduct himself nobly. (Figuratively) One must act in a fashion that conforms to one's position, and with the reputation that one has earned. The reason this tattoo means something to me is that I try to conduct myself in an honorable way and offer help to those who seek it. I am looking for opinions regarding the pro's and con's of getting the tattoo I desire such as potential negative or positive judgment by strangers, such a tattoo’s impact on a future career in law enforcement, and also any other insight at all that you can “bring to the table.” Thank you in advance for any opinions or criticisms of my tattoo plans.

What are the pros and cons of having a chest piece tattoo?
A2A. I don't get the question. You get a chest tattoo to have a decorative or symbolic or, both, piece of body art. Not to have what you call 'pros and cons', because a tattoo is a piece of art and you get it because it's part of your identity.Maybe you may refer to the taboos of the people near to you about chest tattoos, (that they're are for 'inmates' that dont look good in girls, that make you see 'uglier' or 'dangerous', even 'criminal'.. .I do not know)If the opinion of your environment or your workplace policies are more important to you than a chest tattoo that makes you feel identified, please don't do it.If you think this chest tattoo makes you feel prettier / more identified with your self, no matter the people's opinion or politics, you'll sure find another workplace, more permissive, and you'll get new friends, more like to accept tattoed people. But remember, tattoos often are forever, removal is expensive and more painful that the tattooing, and even if you have think about the design over and over again, people's ideals and morals change across the time.If you still want that chest tattoo, but you don't want to get fired, there are makeup for tattoos that cover-up the inked skin, start wearing turtlenecks and clothes that cover the tattoo. But sooner or later, they'll notice.To answer your question:Pros. You will be spared of people that is afraid of chest tattoos. You don't want that crap around you. You too will notice them easilier and probably you'll have new friends, more open.Pros. You will get fired of your conservative work. You don't want a shitty employment. You deserve better.Hey! It has no cons! :D
Ladies.. chest tattoos on guys?
I agree with the first answer. My opinion: I don't really find any tattoos attractive (but that probably means I'm not the type you go for anyways... =P)
If a woman chooses to get a chest tattoo and proudly displays it with low cut tops, is it rude to compliment her on how it looks?
I have a chest piece tattoo. Sometimes, I also like to wear low cut tops.I got a tattoo because I wanted one. Not to show off, not for compliments, not for anyone else’s amusement but my own.Before I had it finished off, I just had a pair of eyes tattooed on my chest. The comments I got were always the same and always incredibly frustrating.So much so that I actually got some business cards made to hand out to people as the human psyche seemed to only be able to conjure up one or a few of a small number of comments and questions to my tattoo.My tattoo was half finished and as soon as I got the remaining parts done to it, the questions stopped being quite so dramatic and incessant and I started to get compliments instead.Not the greatest picture of it as the angle makes my left eye look wonky.If someone compliments me on my tattoo, I thank them and sometimes will engage in conversation with them if they continue to talk to me. But most of the time, I now get “cool tattoo” or “wow that’s awesome!” instead of being stopped 20 times an hour as I walk down the street with someone commenting or touching me.Yeah touching. People would reach out and touch my chest without my permission to see if they could ‘rub off’ my tattoo as they believed that it was drawn on. If it was drawn on, thanks asshole, you just ruined hours of work!Bottom line of complimenting someone with a chest piece is;Keep your comments respectful.DO NOT touch a tattoo nor ask to touch one as it’s weird and invasive and most people don’t like it, especially if it’s somewhere intimate such as the chest.Keep looking up to a persons eyes instead of only focusing only on their chest to ensure that you don’t make them feel uncomfortable by being letchy.Don’t use complimenting a tattoo as a means of trying to ask a girl out unless she’s showing signs she’s into you.Just don’t be a dick about it.
