    Just because someone has a tat doesn't mean that u have to get one. So my question to you is if they jump off a bridge and shallow water is below would u do it? Tats are perment and if you get something that you don't like later on you'll regret it. All I'm saying is choose wisely. Good luck to you!

    A tattoo should be done because you really want one and not because everyone else has one. Also it should have some sort of special meaning to you. If you do decide to get one don't get one that has a reference to you fav band, anyone of the opposite sex, a sports team, or something that you might change your opinon about later on in life.

    I have one right now its of a fall scene, because fall/halloween is my fav time of year and I have alot of great memories growing up during fall, I love the changing of the leaves.

    If you want one get one but remember to put it somewhere you can cover up in a few years because more people regret it when they get older. It's not very pretty when someone has them up both arms or all over their body and they are in wedding parties. Remember what others think when they are choosing their wedding parties and your passed up because of all the tattoo's that maybe showing in those beautiful pictures. Just small items are fine but those big ones or ones all over your body, there just gross.

    Getting a tattoo is a very personal and everlasting thing. If you are getting one because the other guys have them, I'd wait and give it a little more thought. I have quite a bit of artwork on me.

    I never, ever thought I would get one, but did, when I hit my mid 40's and it has a lot of meaning to me. Don't get one just to do it, make it special to YOU.

    Why in the world would you do anything because everyone else is doing it? What a terrible reason. Be who YOU are, not who everyone expects you to be.

    You should only get one if you really want one. Not because other people have one.

    No. With an emphasis on 'no'. And an emphasis on 'emphasis'.
