My dad had an American Flag Tatooed on him and as the years went by it turned into what looked like a burn scar. Good luck to all those butterflies.

We aren't talking tramp stamps at the age of 22 here!
If a retired lady gets a tasteful tattoo on her wrist, I think there is a good chance that it will remain a butterfly as years go by.

Another reason NOT to get a ttatoo:

1 Corinthians 6:19 - What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost [which is] in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?


Leviticus 19:28 - Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I [am] the LORD.

If you get a tattoo, you need to make sure you are using a artist that is great at the trade. For the most part, if a tattoo fades really quick or turns to like scare tissue usually the artist dug into the skin to much. Bright colors fade real quick if out in the sun alot. Mine are black and grey for that reason.

You get what you pay for, cheap tattoo is just that. Always research the shop and artist you are using.

No need to turn this thread into what you should do and should not do by religion or what someone thinks. The thread is asking for tattoo shop recommendations. If one wants a tattoo then by all means get one. :spoken::beer3:

So Gary? You just kinda look all dirty?

(Hey gang, Gary is the best and I absolutely respect his judgment, but on this subject, I have to kid him a little.) How about this tattoo, y'all?

I do not have any tattoos. My wife has two, tasteful and appropriately placed. IMHO, done as my wife's, tattoos look much better on women than men.

I think a small discreet tattoo on a womans shoulder,breast,ankle is very sexy!

I got two small tattoos about 25 years ago. No regrets whatsoever.

Didn't see a recommendation anywhere in this post for a tattoo shop but then advice is always better given than taken.... :ho:

I did misunderstood your comment, sorry.
It seems that Diamond Tattoo is the go-to place for Villagers.
There is still something about the process I find a tad scary.
In the meantime, does anyone know where to buy the little temporary tattoos?
