Tattoo Ideas for Women Over 40

I never voluntarily have needles stuck in me.

[NotGolfer]

NOPE!!!! They look silly on ANYONE of a certain age.

[leftyf]

No, Never, won't even consider it.

For me, most tattoos are an emphatic no because they are just so, well, permanent. Like arm-sleeve tattoos that may look ok while wearing a t-shirt and a pair of jeans, but look perfectly awful while wearing a strapless wedding or evening gown, imo.

But to each his own.

And yet I am ok with permanent makeup (which, by the way is really not that permanent) such as lipliner, eyeliner and eyebrows.

And I think tattooing for breast reconstruction cancer patients is truly incredible. I watched a documentary that showed the tattooing of areolas on a woman that was so realistic it was hard to believe that it was ink.

I also understand when some have the name of a deceased loved one tatooed as a permanent memorial.

So I guess I am ok with "selective tatoos".

Two senior citizens are lounging at the pool. One extends his arm, revealing a fuzzy image and says, "What do you think that used to be?"

Maybe today's tatt inks last longer, but when one gets old with saggy skin, your body art may end up looking like a nasty infection.

Then again, you'll be easier to identify when the memory care unit puts out a Silver Alert about you.

People's bodies change and so sometimes it ends up looking like a smudge. Some of the artwork is amazing though. I know some people that went kind of crazy with remembrance tats after 9-11, I just wonder, do you want to think about that every time you see it on yourself?

I went to a NASCAR race years ago at Martinsville and the guy we sat next to was a local who had tats all over of his dogs (Dobermans) that had passed on through the years. Great guy!

Personally, I don't have any and will never get any. Some tattoos look becoming, but most are not, IMHO. I don't care what other people do so long as it doesn't harm anyone else so knock yourself out.

Well said. Thanks for saving me the typing!

[Taltarzac725]

Have none. Never wanted to get one.

Perhaps a tramp stamp that says "son". Words can't describe how proud I would have been if my Mom had one.

Danica Patrick has the greatest tramp stamp ever.....look it up on the net....they have to air brush it out when she is doing photo shoots...almost feel bad for her.

How come we can't paste photo images on here?

I have no tattoos and plan to keep it that way. Many I see are overdone and hideous.

[Nucky]

I have an M on each butt cheek. One way it says M O M, if I stand on my head it says W O W.
