Well if I can recall who he or she was I tell him lol .
Whole story is I had at that time wanted one and designed it .
The funny thing is the last thing I remember the day I got it ,I was popping open a cold one (insert blackout here) . The next thing I remember it is morning I was shaving and something in the reflection was different lol . So possibly some bias here . I understand my reason was for getting one is not the same as what motivates others. So I tend to let it go. Unless it’s my daughter then she gets a earful lol .

So she's finished getting inked?

(To think that years ago it used to be overwhelmingly a man thing! It certainly isn't any more...)

Let's hope that your daughter is a teetotaler, at least when she's at the tattoo parlor, right? (So many young ppl anyway seem to find their way to the tattoo parlor.)

Wasn't offered one - did not even know they had them avaliable. I have been along with my daughter when she had a tattoo done, she wasn't offered one either.

PS: Butterfly: Do you think that a certain amount of pain is really all part of the tattoo experience?

(If this makes any sense.)

My son had 7 or 8 tattoos before I even thought about it.

I expect you are all fairly good with pain, getting inked? (Him especially...!)

Not me, I won't get another but he seems ok.

I guess he wouldn't keep going back for more if he couldn't handle it!

BTW, not that you currently intend to get more; but if one day you saw a design that you really liked, you could always ask an artist to use a numbing agent if you decided to have another design needled in. (Maybe an option, if you ever decided?)

But 7 or 8: he sounds pretty dedicated, anyway...

@1stCenturyLady So any more interesting tattoo documentary episodes lately?

farouk · Mar 25, 2019

@Mayflower PS: Do you also ever watch tattoo documentaries? there seem to be many tattoo series on TV and Youtube.

Nothing airing right now I'm afraid.

I think the frequency of tattoo series does anyway prove just how appreciated tattoo art has become and how wide is the desire to receive ink or explore the possibilities and potentials of ink, through informational documentaries, research and safety and hygienic tips and learning.

In these senses, all the tattoo series serve a real need; I'm sure you would agree.

How much of your body is tattooed? I just have eyebrows, so at least I know how it feels. I like it, not painful to me.

So you had them done, and you liked the experience? so you appreciated the ink going in there exactly as you wanted it, then.

An oriental design I had on my arm faded; wasn't a success. For some ppl, it does work out more successfully.

So after the thin brow arching inkings, which felt good, was this the end of any more inking plans? or maybe you didn't find a design you liked enough to go for more inking.

Oh okay, I get it! You do desire to be a more fully inked woman but for now it's the dollars that are lacking...

(Well, I guess you'd better start saving, right?)

Probably not so much.

Sounds like you're not so convinced about faith based inking opportunities.

Not my choice.
