what do you think about ankle band tattoos on women?

Q. I know that anklets are out of style and all, but I still think some tribal design bands would look good on a girls ankle. What do you think?

Here are some examples of what I'm talking about: http://flickriver.com/photos/wickedqueen/127359526/

Hope I helped! :)

Tattoo Question?

Q. I have a small tattoo between my shoulder blades (one I designed myself) and I'm tempted to get another, preferably in a place that can be covered up like the one I've got.
My question is, are there particular places on the body where a tattoo makes a woman look trashy or slutty?
Please give suggestions of where I could get another if I decide to.

Answer
People who hate tattoo have come up with the "tramp stamp" name and it angers me that those who love and wear tattoos even acknowledge that term.

If you feel compelled to worry about how you will appear or be thought of based on where you have a tattoo, possibly another tattoo is not right for you.

It is not about the art, either. I have seen gorgeous florals, fabulously balanced and artistic celtic and tribal work on many women who choose this location, none of whom are "tramps." Yet given these same beautiful tattoos on women who are perceived as "tramps" - it creates a different picture no matter where the tattoo is.

Lower back tattooing is one of the most popular spots for women because they don't have to worry about it stretching out like abdominal tattoo if/when they decide to get pregnant. Careful planning is done by these women.

Also, when choosing a lower back tattoo...be sure there is some space along the spine. Some crazy anesthesiologists still think a woman cannot have epidural anesthesia because ink can be pushed in with the needle into the spinal canal. Whatever. No one has proven this to actually be a problem, but just be sure there is space here and there to "move the skin" so they will have a virgin area to puncture so they don't freak.

Location of the tattoo is most often dictated by the design. Some tattoos just don't look good on the lower back and would look much better on the back of the shoulder, for instance, or as an ankle piece.

I am personally not in favor of foot/toe tattooing because of sun exposure creating excessive damage to the tattoo. There are some exceptions a competent artist would be able to discuss with you.

What do women and men think about really pretty girls with tattoos? How does it make them look?

What do you think of really pretty girls with a tattoo, not tons. just 1?

like on her back (not a tramp stamp), ankle, shoulder etc. not in places that are easily seen, nothing bigger than a hand?

Answer
What is the difference between a "really pretty girl" with tattoos and an appearantly not so pretty girl with tattoos? It's still just a tattoo on a woman. Size, gender, amount and design with obviously offensive intention aside: it makes no difference. She is still who she is, just with a tattoo. I have two tattoos and most people wouldn't expect it from me in a million years. Mine are hidden 99% of the time (along my spine and ankle) so when they are seen I get mixed reactions but really don't care what anyone else thinks because they are for me and me only. Even the horribly nicknamed tramp stamp doesn't change a girl, it's just a tattoo and only makes the stereo types live longer.

-Reading back through, my answer could be taken as pissy but it's not meant to be. Just making a case that there is no reason why anyone should care if a girl has a tattoo.

Where can a woman get a tattoo and have it not look at all trashy?

Q. My brothers, my sister and I are getting matching tattoos of our family motto, and my sis and I can't decide where we want ours to go. It's a pretty small design, and we'd like the option of covering it at times. And I'm not a skinny girl, so that rules out a few places. Ideas anyone?

Answer
Do not worry about it looking trashy. If a person hates tattoos, theyre going to tell you it looks trashy no matter where you put it. (disreguard those people, they suck). On your upper back would be cute, or on your ankle, or foot? (im not skinny either, i have one on my ankle, and on my foot). The foot one is easy to cover (obviously) and even though I hate feet....I think foot tattoos are cute.

where can i verify the meanings of symbols?

landlocked

i would like to have references to check the meanings of the arrow facing up and the arrow downfacing. i would like to also verify the hawaiian legend of the woman who was bitten by a shark, but not eaten b/c she had a row of dot tattoos on her ankle. thanks.

Answer
websites about symbols :

Hawaiian tattoo designs might depict squares, triangles, crescents and figures of âaumakua (personal gods), such as the lizard or shark. As recently as 1923, publisher Lorin Thurston told of seeing a woman with a row of triangular dots around her ankle as a charm against sharks, applied because a legend tells of a woman who was bitten by her âaumakua, a shark. When the woman cried out that he was supposed to protect her, the shark let her go and replied, I will not make that mistake again, for I will see the marks on your ankle.

Kauhuhu is the Shark God of Molokai

In Hawaii, the images of the tattoo Gods are kept in the places of tattoo priests. Each tattoo session begins with a prayer to the tattoo Gods that the operation might not cause harm, that the wounds might heal soon and that the designs might be handsome.

Two Questions for Tattoo artists or people with tattoos?

Amanda

I want to get a tattoo, it will be my first. I was wondering...how much would a tattoo like this hurt? I want to get wings on the middle of my upper back and I've heard different things. Also, I want to be a Marine Biologist or a trainer like at Sea world, would I be able to hide this?

Thanks you guys.

Answer
i have 2 big back tattoos and they were not too painful at all! but every one is different. my friend nearly passed out from her one inch shoulder tattoo, where as i happily chatted and barely batted an eye at my massive back pieces. i'd try a tiny inconspicuous one on maybe your ankle or hip first see how you get on maybe?
