Q. Hey guys I have recently been looking for tattoo ideas and on one blog I notice a few negative comments from guys. I currently have 3 tattoos. A butterfly on my upper arm, roses from my hip to my thigh, and a swirly design on my shoulder. I like to think of these as very feminine tattoos. I would just like to know what is your opinion of tattoos on women?

Answer
There will be guys that love them, and guys that hate them. It is all a matter of personal preference. You can't please everyone all the time, so why try? I love tattoos on women, the more tattoos the better. Before I got my sleeve, I would gawk at and compliment women with visible tattoos. They are the ones that inspired me to decorate my own body. I find I get alot of male attention due to my tattoos. Before my sleeve, I was a plain Jane that never got male attention. After my sleeve, I had something beautiful and unique about me. They are a great conversation piece. Both men and women come up to me and strike up conversations about them. I even inspired my mother in law to get her first tattoo at age 55. I say get as many as you want. Some people buy pretty paintings and hang them in their houses. We buy pretty artwork and put it in our skins. Best of luck to you and happy inking!

My arm has been permanently swollen since I had my tattoo, what do I do?

Q. I had it done around two years ago, its a half sleeve tattoo. The woman who did it, dug too deep into the skin, which has left the outline blotchy, scarred, and is raised. She has also done it, so their is fluid retention in there.

Ever since it happened, I have been applying cocoa butter, with vitamin e, but tbh with you, it doesn't seem to be helping.

Not only is it swollen, but the tattoo looks bad also, oh and it hurts too,

Is there anything I can do?

Answer
Sorry to tell you this, but getting a tattoo also comes with a slight chance of these sorts of things happening. My cousin got a full sleeve once, but the artist messed up the upper part, and it left it quite swollen for the longest time. He eventually plucked up the courage to go to the tattoo artist what he could do to fix it and the tattoo artist was nice for a while, then got colder and didnt offer any help. I'd suggest you went to a dermatologist (skin doctor) as he can probably prescribe something that would help the swelling completely or at least be able to fix the scarring ( I take something called retinol micro pump which clears up scars--it works WONDERS)
Again, sorry to hear about the swelling , good luck!

What difficulties are there with getting a tattoo at 16?

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 do I pick a position for the tattoo of a woman Im getting?

Samantha

I want to get Demona from Gargoyles tattooed on my back. I need to figure out a position she will be in. I have a tattoo of a moon on the center of my upper back and I wanted to have Demona some how go with it IF POSSIBLE. (Which it probably isn't.) I was wondering if there is any application or flash animation program where I can mold a female figure until i come up with the right position.

Answer
Good luck with your tat! There are many animation programs that can help you. You could take a picture of your back and use Adobe Photoshop (or any Adobe programs) to impose a picture of the character in different positions to see where you like it best.
