I have tattoo makeup. My eyeliner is tattooed and my eyebrows were filled in with a tattoo because my eyebrows are really thin in some places. I had it done about 5 years ago and it needs to be recolored because tattoo makeup does fade away eventually. I liked the eyeliner a lot but I do like a thick line so I have to put eyeliner over it anyway. However it's nice to always have eyeliner on because my eyes are so light colored that they blend into my face if I don't have liner. I never was pleased with my brow tattoos because it was darker than I wanted. Now it's faded out enough that it's okay.

I will say that my friend had her brows, eyeliner, and lipstick done and I don't recommend the lipstick AT ALL. It just doesn't take right and always looks blotchy. I'm so sad for her.
 
I don't have any, though I did get my bellybutton pierced in college! :p

I think I'm just too indecisive to do something so permanent. I'd be afraid of regretting it later, ya know?
 
I have one on my shoulder and it's for Owen because I always tell him he's my shooting star lol (and that I heart Lauren ha!). He loves it lol and always asks to see his name. I got it in 08 and lol I am shocked I got it to be honest. I am TERRIFIED of needles. Seriously if I get blood drawn I am in tears by the time I'm done, but while the tattoo hurt A LOT I was very proud I was able to get it done lol. I'm getting another one in June/July for my grandma and it's going to be the cancer ribbon with Grandma across the middle and stars in the background (I heart stars SOOOO much lol).

ps. I sadly don't have the piercing anymore and YES the base of the tattoo is from a doodle set Lauren did a while ago lol!

I'd love to get my eyes done since I'm totally allergic to eye makeups.
 
When I was about 18 I got a lone little yellow daisy on my belly!! No real meaning, I was just feeling rebellious and I thought it was so cute!!! I remember the tattoo artist trying to talk me into something bigger cause he told me how sick it made him to "waste" a needle on such a tiny little thing :D :D :D

It's pretty faded now after 18 years and 5 pregnancies. Even though I don't mind my tattoo I'll probably never ever get another cause I still remember that stinging burning feeling and that "phase" of my life is over!!!! :D

You can see it here in these pictures....I'm so freckly that it just actually looks like a really big freckle!!! :D :D :D

I have 1 that is actually two put together on my ankle of a Dolphin jumping out of a wave with a seashell band around.

I want two more, one of my little special needs kitty we lost a few years ago and I want a bat across my loser back...the bat represents my DF.

DF got his first tattoo a few years ago to represent me...any guesses on what that would be...A wolf of course, howling at the moon on his upper arm.

That's pretty Traci! I'm too scared to have a tattoo (needle-phobic) but I would love to get one some day. I want something about the size of that one, but starting on my hip and coming around to the front, kind of over my rib cabe stopping under my miniscule boobs - LOL! Something with birds. Like the old school bluebirds, maybe a scroll with a message. I love those.

Of course I want a mega tattoo as my first one - I don't do things by halves - LOL! And that's probably why I'll never end up getting one :p

I do/did have a pierced belly button though. But it's closed up now since I had Josh - I took it out when I found out I was pregnant as I saw the scars they can leave if you leave them in - ouch!!
 
I have 3. A flower on my lower back, a butterfly on my side and a four-leaf clover with a ladybug right on the front of my hip. And I agree with NeeNee, the tattoo on my back hurt more than I ever anticipated :blink:
 
I don't have one, I wanted to get one on my belly when I was younger, but never did. I'm glad now, as my belly isn't what it was and it would probably look really stupid now! My SO has one, I hate it as it is really ugly - it is of death (random, much?) on his arm and it's quite big. He got it when he was about 16.
 
nah...none for me. Reason #1 is that I could never decide on a design. What I like today might not be true next year. kwim? I just don't have anything that would be that important...other than my kids' names.

Reason #2...dh said he's divorce me if I ever got one. (I don't think he really would...he just hates them though and wanted to make sure I didn't)

and last but not least: I don't like pain.

so....there will be no ink.
 
I want one. I have ALWAYS wanted one. 2 dolphins jumping out of waves forming a heart shape. I'm too chicken to actually get one though. Terrified of needles.

Jeff has a lot of tattoos. Both arms, his calf, his back. He wants a spinal tap next.
 
I'm too chicken, I change my mind too often and I do kind of worry about how they'll look when I'm 60, 70....

Plus, I aim to lose weight some decade or other, and wouldn't want to be left with a floppy, baggy-looking tat (if you know what I mean).
 
I have 3.
A star on my left wrist.
Wings with cancer ribbons in them on my back. My uncle passed away of lung cancer and to honor him I got wings with the ribbon in them on the 2 yr anniversary. I'm going to add to them too.

A flower on my hip
 
none here. kinda always wanted one but scared, lol. i've been watching LA Ink and if i were to get one i'd love to go there; they are sooo talented!!

if i did get one probably something small relating to my kids.
 
No tattoos for me please. :) I have absolutely nothing against them, I just can't think of anything that I want permanently on my body. That and I realllly don't want to deal with the pain of getting one!! I'm definitely a wimp when it comes to needles!!

Rib tats are the worst! If mine had been my first, I never would have gotten another. My first was on my lower back, but not in the "tramp stamp" spot. It's the United Methodist cross and flame, btw. My second is on my sternum, right underneath my boobs. This one is a tribal-like butterfly. It will need some serious attention when I'm done having kids. Pain-wise, it was my easiest, I think. The lily on my ribs though, hurt, and it hurt BADLY! I'm not looking forward to the outlining that will need to be done to finish it up, as the outline always seems to be the worst.

For my fourth, I want to get a mother's knot behind some version of the international breastfeeding symbol with the words "life" and "love" somehow worked in. I would like for this to be black and grey with a touch of blue and at the base of my neck. :)

They are flippin' amazing! Seriously. I had NO idea the stuff they were putting out until I started watching some reruns of it. I'm hooked now. Corey's work and Dan's work are fantabulous! Kat's not shabby either, but I really enjoy Corey's stuff.
 
Oh I wanna play! :p

I have a small tattoo just above the small of my back, dead center where my spine "dips". It's a star with swirls and four tiny stars dancing around it. It's 6 years old now (I got it when I was 18), so it definitely need to be touched up, but I still adore it. I agree with with someone else said -- I don't get to enjoy it much because I hardly ever see it. Now that I still have a post-pregnancy body in need of quite a bit of work, I barely ever see it. :thumbdown:

It's in memory of my great grandmother!

None here...heck I change clothes ten times before leaving the house and you want me to pick something I have to wear everyday HAHAHAHA!!!

You're right though, sometimes it's the people you least expect to have them that do.

DITTO! Just this morning before leaving to go to sis' house (an hour away) to watch my nieces in a basketball tournament... I changed my shirts like 5 times ... then ran out of time to change to any others. dh just laid there in bed and laughed at each change ... which made me want to change again! :p

Never plan on having one ... and each of the boys have been told "any piercings or tattoos and you're out on your butt" ... so everyone in the house is "pure". Don't ever expect to see any on my boys ... but told them just in case they ever had a thought about it.

My mom has one ... and she is one you would never expect ... but it was after all the kids had left the house ... never told the story of getting one ... but 99.9% sure it was after the divorce and out drinking with her bff (who has I am guessing a couple of them "under cover"). :p
 
I'm coming in way late on this because I've been outta town.

I have seven. No one would really expect that of me either. I could rummage up pictures of them but I'm lazy at the moment. My favorite one is on my foot, my least favorite one is on my side. They all represent a moment in my life but I'm done getting them, or at least I think I am.
 
I have one. lower back, it's double horseshoes with some vines running through it. Got it when I was 18, on my first adventure (I flew from CA to Missouri for a week). I don't hardly see it, but still love it, sometimes forget its there, no one else sees it very often either.

I want to get one symbolizing my children/marriage, but have yet to decide what/where/when.
 
I was gone all weekend and want to join in too :)

I have 2, and I want more. I had the first designed for almost 2 years before I finally went and got it done. It's on my inner left hip and it's a shooting star with starbursts. The shooting star represents me, and the starbursts are those that I have lost, watching over me. I need to add another starburst to represent my grandfather.

My second is on the outer part of my left ankle. It says "Girl" in old english writing, and the "i" is a 4 leaf clover. I'm very attached to my irish heritage, and Colleen literally means girl in Irish (or celtic, or whatever).

Jordan HATES tattoo's, and would probably not be happy if I got another. But it's my body, and I know he won't love me any less if I get one. So once I decide on a design, and a placement, I do want to get another one.
 
No way, no how! Sometimes I see ones on other people that I like, but I wouldn't want something permanently on me. Plus, I would never trust someone to put a design on me -- what if they did a bad job or I ended up not liking it? Nope, not for me.
 
I'm late to the party too..but anyways I have 4 :p
I'm proud of my "tramp stamp"..it's a pretty butterfly

I have a sun/moon/stars on my shoulder/upper back

I have a chinese symbol on my hipbone..bikini line

and I have a flower on my foot...I think of all of them the foot hurt the worst
 
I don't have any but I have been thinking about getting one since I turned 21...now I am almost 33!!! hmmmmm
 
So far I have one. It's on the inside of my left ankle - I wanted it somewhere I could see it all the time. It's a celtic/knotted heart design. I LOVE it. I may get it colored some day. I want to get another one on my back/left shoulder of a butterfly on a branch with a cocoon, but I need to find an awesome tattoo artist to design it for me.

We are totally going to LA at some point. :) Just need to decide what I want done there because I'm afraid of how much the one on my ribs will cost. I know who I want to do the work, though.

Hahah yeah it would be fun to go together and get it done. I still want to do the vine with my kids initials in it. I just need someone really talented to draw it up.

1. red lotus on upper back with ohm symbol in the center
2. purple rose on left shoulder with grandpa's initials
3. ankh on left wrist
4. 'Aidan' (my youngest) on left forearm
5. 'RJ' in hearts and viney thing (lol) on right forearm
6. 3 (mario-ish) stars behind left ear
7. 3 cherry blossoms on what used to be my left hip hehe
8. 'T' (initial) on back of neck
