I am 16 and about to receive a tattoo on my left bicep on my arm and was wondering, since my body is still growing, will it have any effect on the tattoo such as stretching or deforming as I gradually get older?

But I would also like to add that I am a boxer and I am still trying to build muscle will this also have an effect?

And any other advice or effect you might have please add to your response, thankyou.



Answer
Firstly, it is illegal for anyone to tattoo you under the age of 18 they will get prosecuted for assault on a minor.

Secondly, depending how fast you gain mass on your arms there is a risk of stretch marks through your new tatt. However These can be touched over and would only be a problem if you gained the weight quickly. Oiling your upper arm (once fully healed) would reduce this risk as it does with pregnant women.

Thirdly, your still growing and at 16 you may not have reached your final body shape or size. Tattoos put on younger persons do have tendency to wander a little an the arms change shape and size. What fits your arm perfectly at 16 will look too small for you and may wander from the optimum central position by the time you are 18 and depending on the tattoo you choose it may well deform (generally pulled diagonally) as your bicep grows. But as i say it does depend on the tattoo you choose as to how obvious this becomes.

In my opinion you should wait a few more years before you tattoo your arms especially if you plan to gain muscle mass. If your adamant on getting a tattoo at 16 it would maybe be better to get it on your lower leg as a boxer gains most of his weight up top and this would reduce the growing worries.

Pick your artist carefully, reputable artists wont risk tattooing under age people.

How to be safe when getting a tattoo?

I want a tattoo, but I want to be safe. So, what are some precautions I should take when choosing a place?

BQ: does shaving over your tattoo make it fade?



Answer
The safest thing you could do would be not to get one in the first place! It might look great now, but depending on where on your body you get the tattoo, it may move and/or stretch, and look just awful in 20 or 30 years or less. Plus if that tattoo is something you later decide you don't want, like the name of a lover, you may want it removed, which is possible (and expensive), but there will likely always be scarring!

If you are set on getting on tattoo, then go for it. It's not my thing, by I wouldn't judge someone for having one! I'd say most of the people I know have tattoos! Just make sure the place you're going to is clean and has a good reputation. If you can find anything out about the particular tattoo shop from the internet or word of mouth, that would great. Also look around when you go in the shop itself. If the shop or the employees look dirty, I'd get out of there quick. Don't be afraid to ask questions about the tattoo procedure itself, and what steps the business uses for infection control, like how they sanitize their equipment and stuff. If the employees get annoyed with you for asking such questions, or avoids answering them, I'd say that's another cue to run out the door as fast as you can.

I've known a few women who've gotten tattoos on their legs, and I've never once heard one of them mention that shaving fades the tattoo, so I wouldn't worry about that!
