I just did a search and found that there was no debate about tattoos. So here are my questions for you:

Do you think tattoos are danerous or safe?

Are tattoos kool or not?

Are tattoos painful or pain free?

Do you have any tattoos

If yes: what are they and where are they? So you want more

If no: Do you want any? (what and where)

If you have/got a tattoo would you/will you regret it?

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
I think tattoos can be dangerous if you go to a tattoo parlor that doesn't have a good reputation and good sterilizing methods, etc.

I think tattoos are awesome

I think the pain level depends on where u get the tattoo.

I don't have any tattoos.

I want 4. an ankh on my arm, angel wings on my back that say "Tamara Elaine Jobes 1986-2004", a shooting star (not sure where), and a faerie on my ankle.

I don't think I'll regret them because I've thought long and hard about this. and I still have another year and a half before I turn 18 and can get them. I'm getting them all in places that are easily covered.

I don't care about tattoos.
I don't have anything against them, but I'm not exactly for them.
So I guess you could say that I'm neutral.

I personally would never get one.
I think I'd regret it later.
You can get it removed, but it's a more painful and a more expensive process than the actual tattoo was.

I don't know if they're "kool" or not.
I don't care.

Eh, I don't have any and I don't want any.

I think that overall they're pretty safe.
Hm. I guess it depends upon the particular tattoo parlor, but overall I think it's a safe thing.

..yeah.

i think they can be dangerous if you get it done with an unsterilized needle for example, but i don't care if people get them. its their choice. i personally might get one in the future, but only a small one. and in a place that i can choose to show it off or hide it. and i'm sure it will hurt. but whatever.

Do you think tattoos are danerous or safe?: if you take the proper precautions they're safe.

Are tattoos kool or not?: i like them. just as long as they have significance that will last you all your life. i ain't talkin bout butterfiys above your butt.

Are tattoos painful or pain free? i don't have one, so i don't know.

Do you have any tattoos: no

If yes: what are they and where are they? So you want more

If no: Do you want any? (what and where) i'm hoping to get "XXX. for myself. for my friends. for my family forever. i take this to the bitter end" on my left upper arm.

If you have/got a tattoo would you/will you regret it? not if i know it's going to mean somthing to me for all of my life, such as the example above.

tatoo's are safe it just depends where your getting one.
i mean like the only way u can get a infection is if the needles have germs
so they are pretty much safe
but personaly i wouldnt get one
im young now but when i turn 30 ill get all wrinkly and that tatoo would
look just nasty

I want a tattoo, but definitely not on my back. If you get it on your back there's a possibility of the ink seaping through your skin and weakening your spine. That's why I want it on my arm...

The needle for the outline doesn't hurt as much as the inking because the inking is compared to a small electrical buzz. Plus your body is supposed to relase endorphins quite quickly. If you get it on your collarbone or something like that it would hurt a bit more then on your arm or something obviously.

Of course it could be dangerous if you don't go to a reputable tattoo parlor for it to be done. So it just depends if you've done the research, and if you've found an good references to a tattoo parlor nearby.

So I'd have to say I'm for it, but I'm somewhat neutral...I don't really care if people think it's wrong or awesome. Body modification has been done for the past thousand years by many different cultures. =] So you can't necessarily say it's wrong, but it's your opinion and I'm all for that.

i say they would have to look cool, but only on certain people. it doesnt mix with bad attitude, however..cuz people like that are usually in gangs and stuff..

if it wasn't dangerous and pain-free, i would get a small one
once this speaker guy who came to my church to talk had tattoos all overrr his arms. he said it felt like a sunburn,...and rubbing an eraser over it

Do you think tattoos are danerous or safe? I think that if you go to a good parlor, then they are safe. Do research. also, you must realize that if you get one on your back. when you are having a baby you cant get an epideral (Pain killer shot)

Are tattoos kool or not? I dont really care... I guess they are cool, if they arent vulgar or over done.

Are tattoos painful or pain free? They are painful. I got mine done on my lower back, and everytime the needle went over my spine it hurt more... it felt like electric scissors tearing through my skin. The outline hurts the wrst. The inking isnt so bad, because by then your skin is becoming numb and your endorphins are shooting out pain killer.

Do you have any tattoos? Yes.

If yes: what are they and where are they? So you want more? I have a 3inch by 4 inch cross on my lower back that says "forgiveness" with a purple sash. i want a trail to come out of it... but my husband wont let me. LOL, so I'm fine with what I have... but DAMN! They are do addictive. You get one, the urge to get another is soo strong.


If you have/got a tattoo would you/will you regret it? I regreted it the first week I got it... because it was just weird to have something marring my nude body... but I dont regret it anymore. It is an expression of my faith, and I will always treasure it.

Its more dangerous to get in a car every day than to get a tattoo, my uncle is a retired tattoo artist, he used to work down at Jade Dragon in Chicago --one of the most respected and well known parlors in the country. They use a new needle on every person so chances of infection of minimal, but do still exist. Most people say it didnt hurt as much as they thought, but it is still pretty painful. Especially if you get it sensitive spots like the back, spine, neck, and etc. I have my name written in small letters on my ankle right above my ankle bone. My parents were hesitant at first but now they could care less --I was 14 at the time.

I love tattoos and piercings!

I think they are cool, it depends on who does them really if they are dangerous. Just make sure the person who does it is a real tattoo artist and peircer!

I have a tattoo on my shoulder and I have 3 piercings.

If the sticker ones that are non-permanent, I think those are okay.

If the permanent ones which requires a needle, I don't really like those becuz they'll stay on forever and you might get infected easily.

Do you think tattoos are danerous or safe? maybe they're dangerous if you go out to like the back alley or your friend does it for you in your house..you should go to a liscensed place.

Are tattoos kool or not? i'm not a fan of the huge ones or a bunch of them covering your body, but i like little ones.

Are tattoos painful or pain free? i don't have one, so i don't know, but i've heard they're painful.

Do you have any tattoos? not yet, but when i'm older i wanna get a small fairy on my lower back. (maybe..ermm.gif)

If yes: what are they and where are they? So you want more? not applicable.

If no: Do you want any? (what and where) umm i already said. tongue.gif

If you have/got a tattoo would you/will you regret it? um, i wouldn't get a tattoo if i was gonna regret it. blink.gif


this isn't so much of a debate..ermm.gif

Tattoos are fine if you get them done professionally.

If you like tattoos. Personally I don't think they're that fabulous, just a pretty scar.

Um, they're obviously painful.

I have no tattoos.

I don't want any tattoos because I'd be stuck with it for life, I don't like needles, and I don't like pain.

I would regret it, because when I turned 90 years old, I'd always have that symbol of wasted youth to remind me of how dumb I was.

Do you think tattoos are danerous or safe?

If you do your research and know and trust your tatto artist then it's not overly dangerous. But like with anything like this risk exists.

Are tattoos kool or not?

I think tattoos are cool as long as the person does not go overboard.

Are tattoos painful or pain free?

I dunno for myself but my mom has two and said it doesn't hurt near as much as she thought. She said your skin starts to get all tingly and goes numb.

Do you have any tattoos

Nope

If yes: what are they and where are they? So you want more

If no: Do you want any? (what and where)

Yes I definately want atleast two that I know of. One I want a pair of fallen angel wings on my shoulder blades and once my friends and I graduate high school we plan on getting a small tattoo or piercing together to signalfy eternal friendship. I'm not sure what yet though.

If you have/got a tattoo would you/will you regret it?

Most likely no. Unless I get totally smashed and get loser or something tattooed on my forehead, which I doubt will EVER happen :) . I think tattoos have some kind of meaning to you whether it was pre-determined or not. I mean you don't walk into a tattoo parlor and go "Eenie Meenie Minie MO! That one!" Well atleast I hope not.
