I think the idea of covering up a scar and making it into a piece of art is brilliant! That is possibly the only reason I would get one. (As far as memories go they are in my heart, invisible to everyone but me.) But if the mood struck me, I’d get whole body tats that you can peel off later.

It doesn't cover my scars. Tattoos don't translate very well over scars, it's not recommended. Instead, I had it on my upper thigh, in the front near my groin (but not on it). One of my scars is 7 inches long, the other one is 5 inches long, and they're around an inch apart from each other, on the outside of my thigh from just above my knee up. That's why - I wanted to give people something pretty to look at instead of "just" the scars.
