Ive got 2 tattoos, ive had them for about 6 years now. Dont regret it one bit, If i was you just make sure you get something you really want. Since it's permanent, and think about where you want it at. Dont put it somewhere stupid your goin to regret later, at least where i live bring plenty of money cause there not cheap. Also make sure you go to a reputable place to get it done at, you dont want to get hepatitis C.

yes, if i decide to get it (leaning that way) i will def. get somthing along the lines of that. it just looks awsome doesn't it.

EDIT: How much are they average?

I got 2 arm bands, for me to go all the way around my arm it was 180. And my other one was 140 for halfway around, my arm.I believe it costs more too the more color you use. I just left mine plain black

Some small ones can cost up to around $300 depending on the detail and ink being used. One good thing is, you can always have the outline of the tattoo (or as much as what can possibly be done) in black ink and come back later when you have more money to get the rest filled in but it's best to get it all done at once.

I want to eventually get two tattoos. On that starts on my left breast, go up, around, and over my shoulder, and end on my left shoulder blade. I want my second to be on my back, possibly just my right shoulder blade area.

I think I want the one on my right back to be a lion, possibly something along the lines of this:

But I'm having a tough time figuring out what I would want to wrap around my left shoulder. It has to be a cool design that means something and all flows together great rather than random stuff. Maybe if I'm feeling ballsy, later on I would come up with a design to go all the way down my left arm to finish off that side then I would be done.

Yeah when i got my arm bands, i wanted something not everybody else had. I got a razor wire armband on my right arm, and a tribal one on my left. Not saying im the only one with those, but most people get barbwire. He said he has never done a razorwire before, i think having a original tattoo not everybody else has is pretty cool. I wanted to get a big cross on my right arm, but i think 2 is enough for me.

I have a plenty of Tats.....
Just remember it's permament, so money should be no option. Save up some coin ( alot of Coin ) and check out ALL the artists. Study Study Study , You want to find out who's the absolute best in the area . A good place to look is to find out where the nearest Tattoo Convention is in your area. Tattoo Conventions have Lots of Hot chicks with bad~*** Tats, it's just heavenly. Pick up the recent copy of Tattoo Magazine ( has really good artist info ) also

I have one, that I got while in the Navy. I also wanted something different, than most of the guys were getting. And I got it high up on my sholder. I got it for my Wife, and she loves it. Like others said, make sure you really want one, because they are with you, for life. Unless you pay some REALLY big bucks, to get them removed. Mines a little faded now, but I don't think I'll have it touched up. Like me, I'll just let it fade away.LOL

I'm a tattoo artist in Albany NY, my wife and I own our own shop, That tat is definatly doable, it will have to be pretty big in order to get all the detail in. Size is probably going to be about your upper arm. If you have any questions you can either pm me on this site or email me at jammininktattoo@hotmail.com
Hope this helped.
