I don't have any tattoos nor will I ever get any tattoos. I'm just somebody who would never like having tattoos on my body.
 
I really really want to but the pain aspect kinda puts me off. Plus finding a good artist to do it seems troublesome.
 
don't have any right now but i do plan on having a lot hehe. i'll probably pick things like plants, landscapes, stars, and birds to tattoo, things i'll never get tired of seeing. i really don't see why people would tattoo things like movie references or music lyrics. i bet if i ever did that i'd want to remove it in less than a year.
 
I don't have any tattoos but my (adult) son not only has a lot, he is also currently attending the Master Tattoo Institute in Miami, studying to become a tattoo artist. He already has parlors hiring him for his artwork, and once he finishes his certifications to do tattoos legally, he should have no trouble working for one of them. His dad was an artist (tho not tatts) and he definitely got the artistic gene.

I want a tattoo going from my back to my arms, basically my torso besides the front. I'm thinking a dark space with pyschodelic galaxies and what not. I ofc would like to get in extremely fit shape before I get it tho.
 
I've thought about getting a tattoo but can't decide what to get or where to put it or them. I like the idea of getting ones to remember beloved family people or pets.
 
I have 1 tattoo lol, I wanna get more for sure though. Just saving up money is difficult rip
 
No I don't have any, nor do I plan on it. Only way I'd even consider it is if I had one to represent something/someone really sentimental to me. Even then it would be fairly small and discreet. But in general I don't see myself getting one, no.
 
I have one on my very upper thigh and plan on getting more! I like working with Korean artists so I think I will have to wait until I can travel safely again. I place a lot of meaning in my tattoo and I plan on doing another meaningful tattoo next.

There's a lot of pushback in my family so hopefully I can get them in more visible areas when I move out.
 
Something I don’t talk about too often, but I love bees and I like mashing two things together, so I’ve been planning to get a zombie-bee. I want it to look more realistic instead of cartoonish. I really love bees and they are important for our eco system so to me they represent life. The zombie part represents mental health to me because sometimes I feel like I’m just walking around not living. I found a tattoo online as a reference and I’d like to get it soon.

I've always wanted them and never gotten one. I need to act fast before it still looks cool and not like part of a mid life crisis.

My biggest problem is I can never settle on anything and fear that a few years down the line I'll not be as in to the idea. This has always kept me away from certain things as I've fallen out of love with quite a few games, bands, etc over the years...I sure as hell would be regretting a Kingdom Hearts tattoo as I can't sit through an hour of it anymore.

I think I'm going to work up to a Monster Hunter sleeve though with a couple of my favorite monsters. Zinogre, Nargacuga, Brachydios, maybe a Goss Harag newcomer. No text or anything (hate tattoos with text), just some cool looking monsters since I've loved the franchise for what, 20 years? However long it has been since the EU release of MH1. It's unlikely I'm going to fall out of love with it and even if I do, the monster designs are strong enough to stand on their own.


But that's a big jump. Might just have a little poogie in stripy pajamas somewhere first to see how I feel.
 
I have an animal crossing tattoo on my left wrist, and that is my very first tattoo that I got for my 21st birthday last year. Its of the leaf, like the one you see for furniture and things. I would also really like a cherry blossom tattoo in the future on my back, as I really love those and theyre beautiful.
 
I have a bat tattoo just above my forearm on my right arm :) I want to get a butterfly on the left parallel to it. I also have a graveyard with a church on my left leg. It’s a drawing from scary stories to tell in the dark book. It wraps around and there’s a few gravestones. I want to get a picture I drew when I was a teen of princess Ariel it’s a portrait type and she’s also a zombie..
I still am waiting for the right time for more but it’s expensive and I don’t have the patience for it right now.
 
I don't currently have any tattoos, but i absolutely plan on getting some!! the current ones i have in mind are a little bouquet of mine + my siblings favourite flowers, plus i think some kind of reference to my cats along with a few others that i haven't exactly planned i just know i want more? the only thing that's stopped me getting one so soon after being of legal age is the fact my mum is pretty openly against tattoos for fear i'll regret them later - now that i'm moving out for uni in a couple weeks hopefully i'll get some done and they'll only be seen once they're fully healed! some of the tattoos i want i've been thinking about for a while so i doubt i would ever regret them, plus even if i get some kind of reference to something happening in my life now that i don't associate with as much in the future, i'll know it meant a lot to me in the moment so it means something
 
I currently have 3 tattoos: a small cross behond my left ear, a big one on my right thigh with flowers and a bird and also a big one that's on the right side of my torso with a barbed wire, butterflies and some sparkles here and there. Honestly, I love them and I plan on getting more!!
 
I have one that I got when I was a teenager. I don't particularly care for it and may eventually pursue laser removal, but for now it just stays hidden under my clothing.

If I ever decided to get another tattoo, I'd book an overseas trip and get a piece by Sandry Riffard. I've followed his work for years and would love to eventually wear some of his stunning artwork.
 
I have 7. Several are text, most are fairly simple designs.

My most recent one is on my leg, in honor of my mother. She played the bodhran, so I have a chair with the drum leaning against it and the stick on the seat. All that is in blacks and greys. Along the chair back, in bright green, the artist traced her writing from a card to say Love Mom.

I dig tattoos, don't have any (I'm more interested in bigger pieces than a collection of smaller ones), I don't think I'll ever get one - Not because of pain or anything but because of resource investment. I'm extra in the sense that I like tattoo art to look pristine and "fresh", and I know the logistics of ink under(in?) skin tends to bleed/fade over time so it'll cost a bunch of extra time + money in upkeep every 5 years or so... I just don't want to commit to that.
 
I have three!!!

I have a very tiny one on my wrist, a semi-colon with a heart.

On my collarbone area I have Thor's helmet.

And on my left forearm I have a silhouette of Bucky Barnes and it says "'til the end of the line" underneath him.


Let me grab some pictures!

This is my very first one. Looks nice and simple!

This one is about a month old, so forgive how weird it kinda looks? There was some scabbing and then some of the red came out in the heart, but whatever! I still love it! It also looks weird 'cause of the lighting.

Here's a little bit of a better pic?
