Do you think she will regret this in later life

Jennifer had this tattoo done last week on her thigh, it is the same inscription her hubby had done inside his wedding ring.

What ye think

Generally speaking I don't like tattoos, and I am talking the David Beckham type. However a small tasteful flower or butterfly on a shoulder or ankle I find very attractive. Your daughters tat is OK Kiya as long as her husbands name is not part of the inscription. But I still think it is totally unnecessary.

That said, one of my granddaughters has recently had a map of the world tattooed on her side and hip. She wants to travel and will have a coloured spot put on for each worldwide destination that she reaches. I don't particularly like it because she is a beautiful girl and doesn't need to do this but I can see her point in the long run.

Grandad... no her hubby's name isn't with the tattoo.

I just think ahead or well ahead to what it might look like when everything starts to hang not that she will much with the figure she has & long legs to die for

She has a very nice one at the back of her neck but don't see much of it with her long hair, also on her inner arm when we came home from Luxor she got her boys name's tattoo ed in Arabic, to me doesn't look finished

I can imagine your g/daughter's tattoo of the world to look nice & with her future dots, ask her for a photo to show us

I hate the things I'm afraid, on a man they usually look thugish or downright naff and on a woman they usually look unsightly although the very small ones are not so bad. I once remember sitting in a bar of a hotel and this old dear (and I mean old) who must have started having tattoos when she was at junior school was sitting opposite me. They were all over her chest, neck and arms and the whole lot was a gaudy mess of coloured sagging wrinkly flesh, it looked awful and nearly put me of my pint (it was bad but not that bad ) It is this lack of foresight as to how it will look in 50 years that gets me, fads and fashions change and I can imagine many people being very embarrassed in their old age by having them.

Horus that's how I think of them, hopefully Jennifer wont over do it

Hopefully not, I sometimes wonder why what are pretty girls in their own right feel the need to go to extremes to enhance themselves when there is absolutely no need to do so.

I personally do not have any tattoos and given my advanced years in SKIN AGE I'm thankful I never got one. Generally I don't like them especially on women when they have their chests, arms, legs done. I think they call it "sleeved" if you have your entire arm done in a solid pattern (yuck).

That being said if you have a small tasteful tattoo strategically placed where it really doesn't show but can impart an important personal message then I suppose it would be ok. I have one daughter who I believe would never have a tattoo put onto her and another daughter who has 3 tattoo on the small of her back that are colored and symbolic of something like 'world peace.' You only ever see them if she wears a bikini and after twins plus 1 she isn't really doing that!

I think the guys who get the full body and up their necks and on their faces look absolutely horrid and thuggish. And won't even go into old aged wrinkled skin that hangs and sags and the presentation of a tattoo (yuck).

I also saw a recent show on TV and, if memory serves, police and law enforcement look for tattoos as signs of gang affiliation and/or to tell if you've ever been in prison. Apparently there are certain symbols that you can tattoo that shows your what pride? at having been jailed and/or gang affiliation i.e. the number "13" indicates directly you're part of one of the most blood hungry despicable gangs in South and North America.

Now that this #13 thing is becoming more and more common knowledge I'd hate for kids to start copying it and then have it come back to haunt them in later life.

I remember a lady client who, across her chest which was extremely ample, had a full spread eagle tattoo. She used to come into the office and "left herself" up and onto the front counter thus giving the receptionists a bird's eye view of her artwork!!
