I got a tattoo once, don't think I'll ever get another. Mines on the left side of my back, I don't know if it was the needles they used or because I was tense, but it hurt bad. A couple hours after i got it, my muscles started to relax, but it feels like a sunburn for a couple days. It turned out really nice though, and they did a really good job.

Subject: Re: Tattoos and piercings
Well, I got my ears pierced at age 13, but I hardly ever wear earrings anymore so that they closed up. On the rare occasion when I do want to wear them, I sort of have to re-bore the hole.... ;D
Subject: Re: Tattoos and piercings
I've got two piercings in each ear (had three, but the third ones closed up), and I have a nose piercing. I want to get my lip pierced, but it costs quite a bit of money ($60!), and I don't have that at the moment! I would also like to get a tattoo, maybe a little devil or a dragon.
Subject: Re: Tattoos and piercings
I have my ears pierced, two on one ear and three on the other. I used to have my nose pierced. :o No tattoos. ;)
Subject: Re: Tattoos and piercings
I don't believe in tattoos or body piercings. BTW, have you seen that commercial for Progressive Insurance where a mother jumps all over her daughter for having her tongue pierced--not for having it done, but for not shopping around for the best price? Funny.
Subject: Re: Tattoos and piercings
I have an earring.

Yep.
And to answer the question of the topic, Nope.
Subject: Re: Tattoos and piercings
Nothing yet, but I keep saying I'm going to get a tat before I turn 40. I propably won't actually do it, but I guess I like to humor myself. ::)
Subject: Re: Tattoos and piercings
I wanted a tattoo once. Then I watched one being done, nevermind. As for piercings...my ears are pierced once and thats it. I was 5 when that was done otherwise I probably even wouldn't have had it done. I hate needles and tend to avoid pain at all costs.

Same here! I have no tats presently, but am considering a small one (1.5 X 1.5) in the near future. I'm having trouble deciding where I want it.
Subject: Re: Tattoos and piercings
Two tattoos,both NW Indian designs about five inches diameter, ten piercings including the navel, and more when I figure out what and where.
Cricket, you should celebrate YOUR independence with a tat. Get something you totally love and will remind you of your strength for the rest of your life. I'd elaborate in a PM, but, as I said, I'm on a friend's computer.

See..that is what I was thinking...and I have a friend that has a tat shop where I live that said he would do it and TRY not to hurt me too bad....but I cannot decided where (even though I have been told a place or two to put it ;) ) and what it would be...I had picked out one in Florida last summer that I was gonna get then....it was the Chinese symbol of strength and power..so I will probably go with that...but the where part is still an issue...
and I want to my belly pierced...but first I would have to get thru the tat and then worry about that big needle!!!

Despite my headbanger avatar, it's not a skull and crossbones... LOL! :-/
Seriously though-it's Eeyore with a butterfly on his nose. I put some pics together and basically designed it myself. I thought the guy that did it (and we're talking the BIG, long bearded motorcycle guy) was gonna laugh me out of the parlor! LOL! But he said he liked it...I'm like "yeah, sure you do!" But, everyone I talked to said that as an artist, he could appreciate it regardless. I started to wuss out..asking how bad it was going to hurt, and my sister (with two tats of her own) says "You've had kids, Marci--this is way easier" and the guy says "You've had kids?" and I said, yes, I have two, and he said "Oh jeez--well then shut up and lay back!" ::) Oh well--by the time I thought of chickening out, Eeyore was half done, and I sure didn't want a half-done donkey on my leg! LOL! ;)

From what I hear, get it somewhere that isn't RIGHT on the bone. My sister has one right on the edge of her lower leg/ankle, and she said you DON'T want one right on that ankle bone, because it really hurts. Hers is a fairy, and she said that fairy's foot hurt the worst of both hers. Mine is on the middle of my left calf, and it didn't hurt too bad. :)

Subject: Re: Tattoos and piercings
Four piercings-ears only! I have the remnants of a DK tattoo on my hand. My friend and I did them ourselves in highschool. We didn't go deep enough everywhere so there are only a couple of dots left. Thank goodness since it is on the top of my hand. I have one professionally done tattoo across my lower spine of plumeria blossoms. My sister and I both got one a couple of months after our Dad died. Sort of, "what the hell, we could be dead tomorrow, let's do it". We had them done on Maui. I didn't think it hurt, she did. I'd like another one but my husband would kill me.
Subject: Re: Tattoos and piercings
I've got two holes in each ear. I've always wanted to get more but they keep closing up on me. I'm always taking the earrings out for one reason or another, then forgetting to put them back in.
I've toyed with the idea of getting my nose pierced, but it's very hard to convince someone to hire you for a high-paying office job when you've got one. One of my co-workers has her eyebrow pierced, but she got it done after she was hired.
I've been thinking of getting a tattoo for years now. Either on my shoulder, (front or back) or on my upper ankle/lower calf. I want it to be somewhere I can see it, and appreciate it, or what's the point? I haven't picked a design yet, I want to wait till I'm ready to do it.

I have my ears pierced and a tattoo on my right ankle. It's a heart with some ivy around it. It didn't hurt and I would like to get another one.
Subject: Re: Tattoos and piercings
A vague rule of thumb: if you can pinch the skin hard and not wince, a tattoo wouldn't be too bad. If it makes tears spring to your eyes, (under the arm, inside the thigh), don't do it. The ankles, however, are the exception, what with the needle bouncing off the bone and all.
Subject: Re: Tattoos and piercings
I had my ears pierced when I was 7 and thats all I have now.I did have my belly button pierced but it went septic and I had to take the ring out with a pair of pliers!?! VERY painful :-/.The jury is still out on getting a tattoo........
Subject: Re: Tattoos and piercings
Two tattoos - a black rose on my right shoulder (that is beautifully done) and a unicorn on my chest (that I detest and wish I never would have got that drunk) ;).
As soon as I find someone to design the next one, I'll have three!

I like your tattoo, RnRF. Very nice. :)
No tattoos here. Got my left ear pierced when I was 18. Got it pierced again and my right ear at 20. The right ear kept getting infected so I let it close up. Can't really wear earrings at my day job so I haven't worn earrings in 4 years. I don't really miss it...

It's really weird -- mine never close up, even if I go for years without wearing earrings. I can always manage to force an earring thru when needed, even tho' it hurts like h e l l sometimes.... ::)

I am nice but I've through alot in my life. So just like some of you got tat's 2 making ur coming of age a bit better. I did it to signify the rage I still have against that person and 2 also be happy that I made it through. People never believe me when I say I'm a Bi+ch, cuz I'm always the fence sitter making peace. I can be rude and mean, when I have 2. ;D
None of you have brought out the bi+chy Britttany though.
FYI: I am sad today. Yesterday my 15 yr old cousin had an asthma attack in her sleep and died. :'(

I have a chain of daisies around my right bicep, a sun (RHCP inspired) on my left bicep, a pyschedelic butterfly on my right calf & a tiny monkey on my back.

As most of you know I broke down about 3 weeks after I started this thread and got my first tat ( and it was NOT painful, only one area hurt). It is a Magnolia blossom (for being a strong, proud southern woman ie: Steel Magnolias) on the outside of my right ankle.
Then a month after that I got my 2nd one....it is a heart with one side replaced with the profile of the man in the moon (inside right ankle). It is also cool...but while it didn't hurt me...it did get infected (no fault of my own) and still needs some correcting on it. Goldie and I got these exact same ones as a sign of our sisterhood!! How cool is that!!
PoP is very correct about them being addicting...I have been wanting another one for MONTHS! I have it picked out and designed....just gotta find the time and money to do it. Not gonna tell ya about that one yet...don't want anyone to copy my idea! ;)
Subject: Re: Tattoos and piercings
SS the magnolia one sounds gorgeous - can you post a pic at all ?
I got my first tat 2 years ago. Its a purple medieval graphic of my Libran star sign - the astrological sign itself - not scales - with scrolly type stuff around it. Bout 2 inches high and an inch wide - on the inside of my right ankle. I didnt think it hurt - but then I had a cracked wisdom tooth and had been living on codiene for a week !!!!!
I want another one but am struggling to find just the right thing that I feel I can live with forever. I have a 5 inch scar along my bra line from surgery and have considered a line of notes from a favourite song over it - just cant pick what my fave song is.
Piercings - I had two holes in each ear in the 80's but let all close up. The bottom ones can occassionally be rebored for special occassions - but I have long hair so you cant see my ears anyway - so I dont really bother. In the 80's I had Annie lennox hair so ears were a very visible accessory !!
