Lovely
So, I've always wanted a tattoo, but I want to do it when I'm 18 (16 now) and professionally.
I saw some pictures I thought they all look surprisingly classy and elegant. I thought of a few advantages such as they are harder to see (so good for work and parents won't flip out) and they seem to look pretty good.
So I was thinking of maybe a tribal design on my arm (girl btw), or my tribe on my wrist (I'm half white and half aboriginal. Cree and proud). But, I saw some other cool designs like bamboo on the leg and some elegant shoulder design.
It will be my first tattoo, so I wanna start off small. Also, how much would a small one cost? Like, on my wrist of something?
Any idea insight or anything would be much appreciated!!
Answer
White ink tattoos are ridiculous to me (no offense.) If you don't want anyone to SEE the tattoo, why are you getting tattooed?
My husband has been tattooing for fifteen years and hates doing them, for the simple fact that people can't actually see them, they have to get touched up numerous amounts of times, and with what the cost of a bottle of white ink is he has to hike up the price of the tattoo. So, okay.. you have your 'advantages', but think of the disadvantages as well. The sun will turn the white ink yellow - it does in just about everyone, and the artist will only cover the first touch up, not the five that follow. But anyways..
He had a customer about a week ago who got all of her kids astro signs tattooed on her wrist in white ink. (You said you wanted something small on your wrist). The tattoo total was only about three inches down the wrist, and she was charged $200.
Just remember when getting them done it will be hard to find an artist who wants to do them, and who will do them for a reasonable price.
Good luck.

tattoo design idea? feedback and ideas?:)?
Stace
i didn't just want a broken heart design haha i wanted something more subtle and unique to me but i have absolutely no idea where to begin. i'm getting a sleeve tattoo and im currently designing it so it's personal to me. i plan on getting both arms done. my left arm is for the past.. my right arm is for the future (im not planning my right arm yet)...
left arm: since i didn't do as well as i could have in school and was called a 'waste of talent' by many close teachers (i was predominately a massive sporting potential for greatness) because i wouldn't attend sport sessions,i would be late to class, misbehave and this was because i went through a massive rebelling stage and normal teenage phase i suppose... i now play pretty high up in my sport after pulling myself together and have shocked some of the teachers. i wanted my tattoo to start at the top of my arm: i wanted the outline of my school buildings in detail and next to it a sports field slightly in the background and in front of it the back of an athlete facing the school with my helmet in my hand by my side. (representing me but you can see my face only my jersey number and surname) - THIS is the top of my sleeve.. feedback on this would be great.
As for my forearm.. a girl i loved in school never loved my back (she never knew i loved her) but it was a massive part of my life and influencing me so i wanted something to represent that on my forearm after the school facilities and athlete looking onto the complex.
what do you guys think of my ideas so far? critical feedback is always welcome :)

im thinking about getting something like this.. http://www.tattoogathering.com/Tattoos/Bez/tattoos_58647.html
but a little different, with a different style of robot and better details of nature, but its a cool collision of opposite worlds (just an idea for the right arm haha)
I like the idea with the left arm though, but you should twist it up maybe, make it a little abstract to where people wouldnt be like, oh nice picture of UCSD.. make it have some meaning. im not sure how to explain it, but you should make it to where people would get different ideas of what it means. (ive never liked tattoos that are just there that mean one thing, like the broken heart for example like you said)
But overall, I think that would be a great tattoo (even if you did it as just a mural of it) if you did that though, i think the best way is to have it extremely detailed. maybe where their would be a sign you could put quotes in very fine print so people would always be finding new things about it. Have hidden immages.
I hope i help
