tattoo????????

sarah b

i am not yet old enough to get a tat but i like to think bout it befor i get it on the spur of the moment

well i would like to get the word luck, love, hope,life, or fun on my lower back i dont know which one yet

i would also like to get it in a graffiti style, i dont know what different kinds there is, so some pics would be nice, i also would like it to be green, blue, red, or black and white or a mixof some of those

is the graffiti a good idea?

Answer
Stay true to what you want. Don't let the opinions of others sway your decision. It's true, lots of people do refer to lower back tattoos as "tramp stamps" and I believe that it's because a lot of pretty girls have them, and when people are jealous they start name calling. Just get what you want.

As far as the design goes, tell the tattoo artist about your ideas and they should be able to come up with something you'll like. Research the artists in your town first and make sure you go to a good one.

And of course, wait until you're 18. I'm sure that's what you're planning to do anyway, but incase it's not I'll tell you the reason why I don't tattoo anyone under the age of 18 regardless of parental consent. You may still grow. If you grow, your tattoo won't look as good because it'll stretch. It's best to wait.

Good luck! I hope you find an artist who can give you the perfect piece!

I want to get something with my dads name"Andy" he past away almost 3 yrs ago and i just turned 18 so i want to get a tattoo but im not sure what it should look like any ideas

Answer
I reckon if you want that tatt on your lower back you goddamn go and get it there girl! Dont let anyone tell you not to. Plus lower back tattoos are way hot (lol i think mine is too!). Basically you can decide whether you want something basic or all out or something in between. Do you want alot of detail? Do you want it big as in right across the entire lower back or just in the middle? Do you want colour or just have it entirely black?My advice would be to sit down with your tattooist and explain what you would like to have done. The tattooist is likely to have done a fair few similar tattooes over the years and would be able to give you a nice design. The good thing about working with them with your design is if you dont like anything they will change it for you no questions asked.

Why are lower back tattoos so popular?

Adam

I see so many people getting them, and it doesnt really make any sense. I mean, alot of the people getting them just walk into parlors, pick a design on the spot, and "think" they will like it forever. And why not something on the mid or upper back? Seems like most lower back tattoos are sexual in nature because of the inverted pyramid many of them form.

I appreciate body art, but not if its drawn in a sexual way, and not if its a fad that wasnt thought out before it was done.

When I ask someone why they did something as permanent as a tattoo and they dont have any reason and just say "idk, I wanted to I guess" it simply baffels me.

Could someone please explain their popularity, why so many tattoos are not thought out and dont symbolize anything, and why so many of them seem to be mildly sexual in nature? (i.e. the upside down triangle so many of the lower back tattoos resemble?)
Oh. and why is it that it is essentially only women who get this kind?

Answer
i don't think that lower back tattoos are any more popular on girls than bicep tattoos are for guys. and it seems like most bicep tattoos are meant to show off a guys muscles and make him look like a meathead. i guess if a bicep tattoo is one in an artful way it is okay but all of those ones that are meant to accentuate the muscles are just dumb. i mean, why do they get them? (see how that can be turned around?)

if i were you i just wouldn't worry about what other people do with their bodies unless it directly affects you. and in the case of lower back tattoos i don't see how it really does. what does it matter if the tattoos are of a sexual nature or whatever? nobody is forcing you to get anything you don't want to get.

how about reserving your judgements for other things? everybody does the things they do for a reason and it's really not any of your business why they do it unless they chose to tell you but since you are so narrow minded i don't see why they would be inclined to try to hold an intelligent conversation with you.
just this tattooed girl's opinion.

Anyone has some really cool lower back butterfly tattoo designs?

Answer
Yeah I can understand the importance of having high quality tattoo designs. You can print them out right? You're smart girl. ;)

Lower back for a butterfly is just plain awesome. You SHOULD get it because I have it as well.

Expose it in the hot sun at a beach. You'll get the guys staring. No sheet lol.

But make sure you get one that's of DECENT style.

Here are some that I like. The 3rd one's my favourite :))
