tattoos????

i'm yours<

i know that i'm young (13-15) and i can't get a tattoo just yet. but i kind of wanted to get something written on my wrist. how dangerous is that? and how much does a tattoo hurt? and no, please don't compare it to child labor. my mom already said that but i can't exactly relate to that. at all. anyways, and if not on my wrist i would want to get one where my dad wouldn't see. other than my butt or boob?
to tonycast.
what the heck.
i meant that if i said where my dad cant see (he's against tattoos) everyone would say butt or boobs.










pervert.
guys you seriously think i was getting one now???? get real. my mom would murder me. i mean when im 18 (supposed to be a b-day present for me for her since she got my sister one). my mum would be signing and watching over it.

Answer
As far as the danger goes, the only place that is NOT a good idea is on your head, as there can be a LOT of bleeding. Another bad place: the hands and feet. The skin on these places sheds and regrows so fast that the tattoos fade quickly- but not dangerous. Otherwise, if you talk to a tattoo artist, they will be able to tell you the risks of getting it where.

The pain involved with a tattoo depends on the person, but generally anywhere that it is over bone with no fat or muscle (ie ankle, tailbone, shoulder blade, spine!) really hurts. Also, places where the skin is naturally soft and tender- wrists, forearms, armpit, ankles, inside thighs- all hurt.

I've known girls who have passed out fom getting the "tramp stamp" on their lower back, and also guys who've been reduced to tears when getting inked on their ribs. Other people sit with a smile and read a magazine.

Since you are so young, it is not likely that you will get a licensed tattoo artist to do this for you- and maybe not even with a parents' consent! Many artists are bound by the rules of the parlor they work for. I would not advise going to a "garage artist" or a friend of a friend who happens to have a tattoo gun. This is how AIDS and Hep. C get spread!

My advice is try Henna. It is a strong dye made from plants, and comes from India. It takes a little practice to use it right, but you can get some stellar effects with it. It stays on for 3-6 months, and fades after that. Women in India get their hands and feet decorated in it before their weddings, and it can look just as good (if not better) than real tattoos!
You can order it here, or google for a place in your city on where to get it:
http://www.earthhenna.com/

If you really like it, you can just re-apply it every few months until you are old enough to actually get inked. If you don't like it, you don't have to reapply it! You're happy, Mom's happy!

Hope this was helpful, and Good Luck!

PS~ The only reason anyone mentioned giving blood to your kids: you just can't get inked when you are PREGNANT because of the risk of infection. Before or after you have kids doesn't matter!

What style or technique of tattooing will last forever?

anon

i see certain styles of tattoos and i can almost put a date on them as they seemed to have come and gone. what style do you consider the most classic? (i actually asked the opposite to this question, wanting to know what tattoo styles are trendy at the moment, but that upset the teenagers from the trailer park too much so i didn't get my answer and i'm rephrasing it.)

Answer
The tattoos that are not trendy are the ones that you get for you.
Custom works of art, about things that you love and are interested in.
My husband has a Cave art painting reproduced on his chest.
I have a Celtic Dragon from an ancient piece of jewelry.
I have a wrist bracelet that I designed, filled with stuff that I love, my Dad's favorite flower, something from a dream,... all in my tattoo.
You can get anything, even if it is the trend of the moment, if you love it, and make it yours. You have to remember that body art has been around since the beginning of man/women, look up the Ice Man, and the Payzyrk mummies, etc. And you need to remember that images are art forms.
I think that people under 25 yrs old, forget, or have never thought, that whatever trend that they are seeing, isn't everyone else's life on the planet. That is because marketing has become so pervasive, that people forget that there is anything other than what is marketed,... that is 'seen' on TV, computer, movies, magazines, school, store, newspaper,... Imagine not being connected in these ways at all, would you know if Susie Whatsherface across town or in the next State, got a 'cute little monkey' tattoo? If you got a 'cute little monkey' tattoo, do you think that it would look anything like hers?
No
So, the answer to your question is, that if you get a tattoo for yourself, and not from anyone else's tattoo, or anything that is marketed, or anything that you saw at the current movie or eatery or mall, ... if you got your idea from yourself, and your life, then it will not be trendy.
Even if you get an image from a book or a poem or someone that you admired, it would be yours because it would be about what you care about, and you would not make your choices of design, color, placement etc. because of anyone else.
Look to yourself.

p.s. I don't live in a trailer park and I am not a teenager.

What is The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo about?

Jenna Tann

So I've been watching the trailer for it and I'm really interested in it now. But it's looks really confusing reminds me of the movie Inception. I plan on going to see it when it comes out (December 21, 2011). But I want to know who is this girl with the tattoo, does she have some type of power or something? What does she do?

Answer
December 2002. Mikael Blomkvist, publisher of the Swedish political magazine Millennium, loses a libel case involving allegations about billionaire industrialist Hans-Erik Wennerström. He is sentenced to three months in prison, and ordered to pay hefty damages and costs. Soon afterwards, he is invited to meet Henrik Vanger, the retired CEO of the Vanger Corporation, unaware that he had commissioned an investigation into Blomkvist's personal and professional history. This was carried out by Lisbeth Salander, a surveillance agent with Milton Security.
Blomkvist is promised considerable financial reward and solid evidence against Wennerström, in exchange for writing the Vanger family history. Vanger believes that his greatneice, Harriet, was murdered by a member of the family 36 years earlier. Blomkvist moves to the Vanger estate and becomes immersed in the history of Harriet's disappearance.
Salander, who was ruled legally incompetent as a child, is under the care of legal guardian Holger Palmgren, but he has a stroke. Her new guardian, Nils Bjurman, is a sadist who uses his position to sexually abuse her in return for access to her own money. After he rapes her, Salander takes her revenge by torturing him and threatening to ruin him unless he gives her full control of her finances.
Blomkvist discovers Salander has hacked into his computer, and persuades her to assist him with researching Harriet's disappearance. Together they uncover decades of buried evidence, and they begin to suspect that they are on the trail of a serial killer. They have sexual intercourse, but the antisocial Salander keeps Blomkvist at a distance emotionally, refusing to give herself fully.
Blomkvist discovers that the killer is Martin Vanger, who tells him that his father initiated him when he was a teenager. He admits to murdering dozens of women, but denies killing his sister. Martin takes Blomkvist prisoner and nearly kills him, only for Salander to arrive just in time to save him. Martin is killed in a car accident while escaping Salander's pursuit. Salander's hacker acquaintance, Plague, sets up a phone tap on Anita Vanger's home in London. This proves that Harriet is alive, and located in Australia. Blomkvist flies over alone to find Harriet, because Salander's mother has just died. Harriet tells Blomkvist that her father and brother sexually abused her for years, and that she went into hiding because she killed her father. With Martin dead, she returns to Sweden, where she reunites with her great-uncle, who makes plans for her to take the position of CEO of the Vanger Corporation. Blomkvist accompanies Salander at the funeral.
Blomkvist is furious when he learns that the evidence against Wennerström that Vanger promised him is useless. However Salander has already hacked Wennerström's computer and has discovered that his crimes go far beyond what Blomkvist documented. Using her evidence, Blomkvist prints an exposé and book which ruins Wennerström and catapults Millennium to national prominence. Salander, using her phenomenal skill with computer hacking, succeeds in stealing more than a quarter of a billion dollars from Wennerström's secret bank account. Blomkvist and Salander spend Christmas together in his holiday retreat and their sexual relationship continues. At the end of the year, she goes to Blomkvist's home with her Christmas present for him, but sees him with Berger and flees. She had intended declaring her love for him.
As a post script, Salander continues to monitor Wennerstrom and after six months, anonimously informs a lawyer in Miami of his whereabouts. He is found in Marbella, dead, shot three times in the head.

What can you tell about a woman who wears a flower tattoo on her upper right shoulder blade ?

tattoos for women magazine image

Terry

O.K. I recently had a falling out with a woman who always refered to me as her best friend. I caught her in tons of lies during our ,so-called, friendship and the rest of the time she just baffled me with her evasive personality and quirks. She had the most amazing flower tattoo (I think it was supposed to be an Iris or Orchid ) on her upper right shoulder blade.
I see in various magazines that alot of attention has been given to tattoos ,their art and body location and what they can tell about the person.
Any one have some thoughts on what I didn't know about my ex friend based on her tattoo ??
By the way I'm still crazy ,mad in love with her. I suppose my tattoo should be "Fool 4 love" across my forehead.

Answer
It means she likes flowers. And tattoos. Ta-da!!! Magic.

Do tattoo magazines except photos from anyone?

Elena

I just did a pin up/ tattoo type photoshoot. I am wondering if it would be weird to send a few 8X10s to tattoo magazines, and ask if they would be interested in using my photo. I've never done this before and just wanted some background info.

Answer
No. And don't send anything before asking. Not weird, but your work could end up in the trash.
I'd suggest you e mail or write them to ask if they accept photos from readers. Some do, most don't. You also need to write up a contract as to how your photos will be used, as well as a model release for the woman who posed for you.

What is the coolest thing you know about tattoos?

Laleh

How there!
I am just trying to get ideas for a tattoo book... could you offer me any creative suggestions, writing props, or just stories you think you'd wanna read? Thanks!

Answer
That the oldest known tattoo was made by running a string through the skin.

A former co-worker won a kyak race. The winner of the race gets a traditional (both style and application) tattoo. I don't know the name of the race. But I believe it's held in Hawaii.

There is a tribe that tattoos the face of the women. When a girl is old enough she is tattooed by her grandmother. The reason was they figured outsiders (I don't remember if it was warring tribes or explorers.) would not want their women since they were disfigured. Now girls look foreward to when they go through this rite of passage. I read this in a magazine. It might have been National Geographic, but I don't think so.
