Thinking of getting a shoulder tattoo, opinions? Girls?

jschmuck

Hey everyone, I'm thinking of getting another tattoo to get on my shoulder. Planning on having it go down to my elbow and up to my neck. A tribal shoulder tattoo of course.

Before I get any haters, I only get tattoo's that have meanings to me, otherwise I really don't see a point. I enjoy tattoo's and explaining the meaning of what I have to others.

I want to get it done on my left shoulder, thinking a stylized flame tribal would look best. I have some already on the arm if you looked at the picture. Zodiac signs, from the bottom up, libra (me), capricorn (brother), aquarius (sister). That went by youngest to oldest. Anyways, thinking a tribal shoulder tattoo, that basically wraps around the zodiacs and work down to my elbow. Then up just below halfway on my neck.

Also planned on getting a Leo (for my dad) on my left pec. As I would have the tribal wrap around that, and then a pisces (for my mom) on the back of my left shoulder blade. I think the tribal would represent my family being together and representing other meanings to me.

What do u think when u c a girl with a tattoo on her shoulder?

just one tattoo?-do you think its tacky or not classy like?

Answer
I like 'em. I agree with Leslie- it's in the way she presents herself. If she looks trashy, then, in all honesty, almost anything she does will be trashy.
And I love it- people who DON'T have tattoos are the ones saying people will regret them. They speak without experience. Yeah, it's true, some people do regret them, but it's normally people who went and got one when they were drunk or underage and got one for the sake of being able to say they had one.
Most people who do have tattoos, have thought long and hard about it, the location, the meaning, and if they really want to remember that meaning. Most tattoos tend to not be a spur of the moment thing.
I think it also depends on the tattoo- I've seen alot of scene girls with tattoos of cupcakes or robots smply because it's what's trendy now. Talk about stupid. But, again, it's not my place to tell someone not to get a tat of a trend and to put more though into what they have, and, who knows, maybe they got a cupcake or a robot because someone they loved and passed away had a passion for those things. My assumptions and instant classification of 'stupid' or 'tacky' demeans any possible meaning behind those tattoos. It is a purely ignorant assumption on my part, and you know what they say about people who assume; it makes an "ass out of 'u' and 'me'."

Shoulder blade tattoos on girls: hot or not?

Amanda

Do you think shoulder tattoos look bad when you're trying to dress up? Like in a wedding or prom dress. I want one on my shoulder, but that's the one thing that's holding mw back from getting it. It woukd be like Megan Fox's on her shoulder. Different words though, of course.
I know it doesn't really look good, but does it look trashy and like totally ruin the look? Or is it just like no big deal?
If I did get one there, would tattoo concealer really work to cover it up when I do get married?
It would say happiness depends upon ourselves.
And a tramp stamp is your lower back hun.

Answer
Hard to say, because it's impossible to lump all tattoos into one category. I know a girl with a rendition of Van Gough's 'Starry Night' tattooed on her back. It cost her five thousand dollars, and is truly awesome. But the same gal, wearing some lame tattoo that was done by a bored tattooist, trying to rush her out the door so he could close early, simply can't compete. So it depends on the individual, and what kind of tattoo we're talking about. 'A tattoo', simply isn't descriptive enough to say one way or the other. Take care.

What do you think of tattooed girls?

I've been around tattoos my entire life. My dad, uncle, grandfather, & two of my brothers are all heavily tattooed. I've wanted tattoos ever since I was little & my father is supportive as long as I don't get any that are easily visible & could get in the way of getting a job. I've been planning a sleeve from the top of my shoulder to around my elbow. It's a sketch I've been drawing & editing for the last 7 years & it's going to be my 18th birthday present before I head off to college. However, I don't want people to get the wrong idea if they somehow see it.

What do you think when you see a girl that is tattooed? Obviously not a small one, something big like the sleeve I'm planning to get. It's okay to be rude, I just want your honest opinion & your reasoning, if you have any.

Answer
I personally think tattoos on girls are hot, as long as it's strategically placed. Too much tattoo or certian designs make them look manly or dirty. Personally, that sleeve tattoo u're planning doesn't seem a good idea, especially for a girl. What if you need to go to a formal party in the future? U can't wear sleeveless gowns or dresses without looking manly. Usually, the ones that look great on girls are on the the back of the neck, hand, armband or back of the shoulders and the ones that are not overly-colored and do not exceed 3 inches.

Well, it's actually just a matter of preference and your own style. It's still best to get one that suits your personality, because tattoos shouldn't just be accessories but self-expression. The stuff I mentioned above are just tips to consider. Also consider the fact that some employers don't accept inked emploees, like in some hotels, restaurants, planes and ships. So if your dream career is related to those, I suggest you think about it really well.

At the end of the day, it's still up to you. Good luck. :)
