Tattoos are so mainstream now. But are only a fashion! |

I have one. Got it when I was 30. I'm nearer 40 now. I don't regret it at all. It's not in an obvious place and tbh sometimes I even forget its there. But I do still love it when I look at it. I don't like all tattoos. But I like mine :0)
As for them being 'fashion statements' - pah. If they are, they're the longest running fashion statement there ever ever was! |

They only give that impression to shallow judgemental idiots
Sometimes it can work - a big pouffy white dress and a dainty purple butterfly tattoo could look very pretty, or a celtic tribal tattoo with a sleek black ballgown could look stunning - but when the clothes and the body art clash, it will look odd; just like wearing a ballerina costume with wellies or going to a funeral in a pink fright wig will look odd! |

That's unfair. The reason tattoos and formal clothing don't work together is because they are two very different looks. Tattoos are meant to display a rock'n'roll, unconventional, expressionistic attitude to life . Wedding dresses and evening gowns are more traditional, conservative, feminine outfits worn on formal occasions. When you stick the two looks together it often jars because of the juxtaposition of formal and unconventional styles.

But that's the impression tattoos do give.
I personally do not like tattoos for myself, but other people have the right to do with their bodies whatever they please without having people judging them because of the way they adorn themselves. |

I thought the best advice for getting a tattoo was to wait six moinths, or even a year, and then get it if you still want it. If you feel you can't wait that long then it's something you'll probably regret.
