None, never wanted one either.
THe other day I considered getting one though ... but not sure. I used to prefer piercings. As least you can simply remove those and you can't - or barely - see it anymore.

I can appreciate ink, depending on what it is and on whom. I really don't like koi fish and generally not keen on coloured ink.
I like Celtic designs. Once a pagan...
Sleeves can be real cool too. But I'd never go that far myself.

Gotta laugh at anyone that gets kids names and dates of birth tattooed on them? I can easily remember the names of all three of my sons ( 1 died ) and their dates of birth, as I was at all 3 births, without having to refer to tattoos on my arms, etc, to jog my memory! Madness, if you ask me!

Use Bepanthen. It's used for nappy rash but recommended by tattoo artists as well.

I never ever thought I would have a tatt either Crystal - but at my age and after many of Life's games and heartbreaks I have a reminder to myself that nothing else matters - except myself and how I deal with my Life experiences.
It is just three words in a swirly kind of script and it is on my forearm nearer the inside of my arm. The words run down my arm towards the fingers. I can look down and see it very easily. I use it as a mantra - it's quite amazing how effective and positive it is.

Yes, I was thinking of something similar... something meaningful, to me. I'm not sure yet whether I will.. Could be that I'd have it done in either Japanese symbols or Scottish Gaelic. And probably in the same place you got it.
But I wouldn't mind a Celtic knot-work 'bracelet' either

Hopefully you are washing it and at least putting plain lotion like lubriderm on it. It's going to be itchy, that's just what stage it's in.

This is another "to each their own" subjects. I have a few and ideas for more, but I don't know where to get them. Personally, I prefer them in places I can easily conceal them.

I only have one tatoo on my shoulder blade. But I would like to get another one. I am looking for someone to design a tat for me. I want the breast cancer symbol with the pittsburgh penguins symbol embedded within it along with the toronto maple leafs. Any thoughts on this?
