I try not to comment on individual tattoos, but there are some good oens and some bad ones. It's all about your individual tastes, but you do get what you pay for. I have one on my upper arm/shoulder that I would like to remove or cover up. I was on deployment in Israel (USMC) and thought it would be great to get a tattoo... I think I was 18 or 19. It has faded a bit... I can't decide if I want to use a product called Wrecking Balm, but maybe I'll get around to it.
The point is that tastes change. What's cool now or means something to you now, likely won't in 15-20 years. Then when you're setting an example for your son/daughter, it's a different story.
I only suggest that from a professional standpoint, just make sure all of your tattoos are hidden by a short sleeve shirt. It's awkward to be tattooed and declined for a position based on something you decided to tattoo on your forearm 15 years ago. Fortunately, I never got inked anywhere visible in my professional career.

completely agree.Clay;4418741; said:
i never got any facial piercings or visible tattoos because of this reason.
i have one on my neck but its easily covered by my hair and a shirt.
i am struggling with my bak piece though. iv had it designed for years and always known its going there but it will cover my whole back.
when i wear a white shirt to work u will still see it through the shirt. and if i wear a strappy top u will see it.
i know u get them done for yourself and it doesnt matter what others think....but i know loads of girls that have it done on the inside of their wrist just because they think its cool that other people can see them.
im not like, mine r personal.
plus one day i might get married and if i wear a basque dress...which i will lol u will see it and tbh its not going to b the epitome of beutiful in wedding pics.

Not sure what this Wrecking Balm is, but i'd be careful using these products??? best bet is normally to use laser to get rid of a tattoo albeit a lot more painful and expensive then getting the tattoo...Clay;4418741; said:
Other options would be to get a cover up tattoo of some sort, although that most likely means going larger than the original tattoo you already have... and that only works if its not got a lot of solid black areas in it...
Just had this done today, gonna go back in a couple of weeks and have some skulls added into the background.
