I'm getting a tattoo for my 17th birthday(Yes I do know you have to be 18)
And I have no ideas of what to get at all. The idea of choosing something that has to stay with my through my life is daunting.
Ive googled tattoo designs but nothing good comes up. So any ideas?
Im looking for something artistic. Im a girly girl. Nothing too big. Any ideas?
Also would I be able to design my own and hand it in to the tattoo artist?
Answer
Ask yourself why do you feel that you have to get a tattoo, when you have no idea what you want, and you're not sure how you feel about having one for your whole life. What's your hurry? Someone holding a gun to your head?
Really, it is a good rule of thumb, to not get a tattoo, unless you have an image/idea that you thought of yourself, always related to, or just 'knew' that it was right for you. If you have nothing in your head, please don't just grab something, just to do it. There are a lot of other good ideas for your 17th birthday gift.
If you 'just have to do it' .. well my advise would be to go for a flower. (unless you hate them..) but they age well, there is a huge variety or shape, style, color, and size. They can be placed anywhere and go with anything. When you are old, you will still love your flower.
So, now you think, look, search, (if you really want one). Or wait,.. there is no hurry.

Make sure that you find a well established, experienced, licensed artist, and that way you won't be looking for a cover up tattoo, or laser removal within 5 years.
Good luck with your decision.

Tattoo Designs?
Mom22
Well I am getting a tattoo next month but I haven't decided what I want to get yet. I want to get my kids names ( maybe birthdays also ) but I want some kind of design like a heart or butterfly and I want to put my oldest daughter's name above it and my youngest daughters name below it, but I cannot find any websites that have letter designs and most of the sites that I have looked at, you have to pay to look at full size pics of the tattoos so, does anyone have any good sites I can go to or any pics of your own tattoos that you wouldn't mind sharing, thank you!
Dinulchik- I knew I would get a response from someone telling me I would regret it lol...I already have a tat on my ankle, it's just a tiny heart and I don't regret that, I have wanted tattoo's since I was really young, I am 26 years old, married with kids, I think I know what I want, If I had any doubt in my mind I wouldn't do it. But thank you for your concern.
Tinywitch- I'm not sure if I am actually getting the tattoo next month but normally my mom give me a $200 gift card to a clothing store, I told her this year I wanted a gift card for a local Tattoo shop. I have checked them out and they do have a design there that I really like but I am just keeping my options open just in case I see something I like better.
Also I am getting it on my upper back right under my neck. I don't want it too big, I would say 4 or 5 inches in width and maybe 2 or 3 inches in height.
Chelly- The I have checked out a few with some moons and stars but I cannot find any that will look right where I want to put mine ( on my upper back, right under my neck ).
Answer
I would go to your local tattoo shop and look at the different designs they have you might be able to get some ideas there also a few of the guys I know also freehand designs they might be able to come up with one that will be unique. That's what I had done with mine. A friend of mine wanted something so she could have her kids names in it also and she went with precious moments it was the moon and stars the lil girl was laying on the moon looking up at the stars and each star had her kids name in it . Take your time and don't rush things if u haven't found one u really like. Tattoos cost a lot to have taken off. Good Luck finding the right design
