Do you have any tattoos? If so, ever get one you regretted?

Question

The tattoo sleeve on me in the pics isn't real. But whenever I put on the fake sleeve it makes me wonder if I should actually get a tattoo. I'm too nervous though that years later I'll change my mind and it's a permanent change.

Its a BIG difference between wearing a fake tattoo you can take off anytime, and a real one that you can never remove. My girlfriend drew a Playboy bunny on my arm once, and she said it looked great, and I thought sure, let's do the real thing... why not?
Half price on a second bunny on my other arm? Lets get to work...

Soon after I got the tattoos I was mess, knowing I couldn't take them off... ever...

To this day I wonder about all the relationships that might-have-been had she not been repulsed by my tattoos.

Your "sleeve" looks great by the way !

Check out Ephemeral tattoos. They last a little over a year and fade away. If you got the $ it’s a great way to get inked and not commit long term or it allows you to get something different down the line.

I have one. It's a heart and i don't regret it because it means a lot and symbolizes love and having a caring heart to me which i have, but honestly give it some thought before making a final choice because i did hear it's more expensive to remove them then to get them done first, also more painful!! But it's your body, nobody is to tell you otherwise but tbh pick something that is meaningful to you or something you admire.

I have one and I never regretted it, but it's also a pretty personal tattoo and means a lot to me

AmandaYVR · Answer

I went to have a consultation with a dermatologist doctor once.

We talked about many things (I'm a curious person.)

This is what he told me: "50% of people who get tattoos regret them within two years."

My personal opinion on your question: Don't do it. Don't oversell yourself, so overtly, as a sexual person. It's what you will develop in yourself, it's what others will see and think of you, and it will limit your growth on the things that really matter.

riidges · Answer

I say get tatted up. Tattoos are a way of letting yourself express yourself through art and makes you unique (more than oneself already is). I've never regretted any of my tatts. You could always get them laser removed or covered up if you become unsatisfied with them

Kaneki05 · Answer

Nope I do not have any tattoos yet. I have a plan for one or two. And I shall not regret them because they will mean something to me. Which is the way i think tattoos should be anyway, someway personal. There can be some that are just nice for been nice tho.

Fake sleeve does look nice and not permeant anyway so that seems good until you decide or don't do at least you can do it through that.

dustybiker · Answer

I have a number of them. But they are all realism memorials and or personal memories. Zero fear of regrets for me. I’m known as the girl with german shepherd tattoos. A lot of people in my area knew some of my dogs I’ve trained through the years well, they were always with me, so they feel connected to their tattoos also. Spurs memories when we cross paths. It’s sweet.

TheBigWhistle · Answer

Never felt a need to get one. Don't have an issue with others having a few here and there that have meaning to them but full sleeves and large pieces feel like a little too much to me. And you're right, what seems trendy and cool at 20 may not seem so at 45.

ChrisMaster69 · Answer

It’s really a case of deciding what you want, where you want it, what you want it of, as I. Does it mean something to you.

personally start small and see how it is, ideally some place not on show 24/7 but where you can see it when in front of mirror etc.

Then see how you feel.

personally I like Tattoos n piercings, I just need to decide on the Tattoo for this year,

AncientWisdom · Answer

I’m covered in tattoos no I regret none of them they are the story of my life written on my body. I don’t even know how many I got

AndrésC64 · Answer

Well it depends on how you count, but I've been tattooed a dozen times or so. I don't really have any regrets, I am thinking about getting a cover up for one of them just because I receive it on other people and I don't like having a tattoo that other people have. But they all remind you of things and times and events that are important to me.

dragoblack · Answer

I have a tattoo and though i want more, i don't regret it. Tattoos shouldn't be any image you think looks cool, but they should have meaning and be aspects of you. Experiences, loves, enjoyment, thoughts, passions, these are the things people get tattoos of to tell their story and show who they are

bonniebaby19 · Answer

i got a lot to piss off my dad... i love them all.. some guys think i am a tattoo junkie and dont like them. i cover them at work so no one says shit.. it is me and my body.

noohair · Answer

My view on tattoos was formed by meeting holocaust survivors when I was young working in New Your City. The numbers on the arms were shocking. Also, there is a generational thing with me and women with tatts. Just me and my preferences. Not judgement.

abc--123 · Answer

I got my first tattoo at 18 its only about 2 inches big. Got my second at 29 on my right leg then at 30 half sleeve, 31 half sleeve and other leg. Personally I'm glad I waited as if I had have gone crazy with tattoos at a younger age I'd be covered in utter shite.

Kha0tiic_xo · Answer

Yes I have 13, and yes I have only one I deeply regret getting, because I'm a dumb ass!
I got my ex's name, but I got big enough that it can't really be covered with much and it's on the side of my neck 😑

Elise888888 · Answer

Yep. When I was 18 (which was a long time ago), I got wasted on my birthday and got a tattoo in Arabic. I don't know what it means and I'm not Arabic. I'm now 31, and still have this tattoo. It is on my lower back :/

SlothySlob · Answer

Years ago I had wished to get a couple, but in my mind tattoos only look good on people with fit, toned bodies. I might regret not getting a tattoo when I had the chance or not, but for now, I don't think I would financially recover from it.

B4852 · Answer

I don't have any tattoos. Never thought they were for me.

And if you like tattoos it's your choice. But if someone were to ask my opinion I'd probably say use the sticker tattoos because you can change them like clothing and always have a fun new design and never risk regret. But that's just me. You do want you want.

soe11 · Answer

Pleaznhim4me · Answer

I have none and I don’t regret it. I would only tattoo if I had a very tragic life event that required memorialization. So I hope the day never comes when I have one.

Raphaëlle · Answer

Yes, I've tattoos. The recent one was made a couple of weeks ago. I don't regret any of them. When I do a new one, I think a long time before I actually book an appointment.

GlassTop · Answer

No. I would never get a tattoo because it’s permanent and my likes and dislikes are always changing. What I liked at 5yo I may not like when im 20yo. What I like at 20yo I may not like at 50yo.

DarkWinterNights · Answer

I think some look good, especially if it’s something meaningful but most of the time they end up looking bad later in life. I wouldn’t get one to just get one.

No tattoos here. When I was a teenager, I wanted to be a bad boy and get my ears pierced, but I never did.

hi_it_is_me123 · Answer

I am happy that my parents were strict about it. I actually wanted some small tattoos but today it is pointless since fake tattoos exist. I personally would only try fake ones

VikingWarLord · Answer

Tattoos on biitches looks horrible.  Not to mention the chemicals in the ink absorbs into your skin and eventually causes cancer. Id! ots know this and they don't care. Don't do it

SecretGardenBlood65 · Answer

tattoos seem silly to me. As a Kurd, I can say that we get tattoos on the face, but I don't like doing such things. I'm always in favor of being natural. Whether it's plastic surgery or make-up, these are things that spoil the naturalness.

Fireguy17 · Answer

Just one, fire department related. I finally figured out what I want for a second one in case I do it again.

DiegoO · Answer

I don't see any sense behind tatoos. We change over time, so a tatoo that made sense when I was, let's say: 18, may not make sense at 30; so on. Therefore, why even make one?

sheikalana · Answer

Don't have any tattoos and I don't think I will ever get one exactly because I might regret later.

dreamstar72 · Answer

Fake ones are better mainly because of regret. A good fake tattoo can be fun

Guido · Answer

I don't have any and the reason is whatever I would have gotten earlier, I wouldn't like today. I don't really fond them attractive. I most cases, they are turn off.

GoodGuyBreakingBad · Answer

Now I love them pics, the tattoos are okay and can be accepted by any guy

Shamalien · Answer

Tattoos, in my opinion, are stupid. Find something to decorate other than your body, which you need and live with 24/7 forever until you die

To me a tattoo has to mean something. A remembrance of a lost pet or relative.
