Got a mate like that. Covered in them. I've got 2. Well I say 2 one of them I can't really call one as its tiny lol. Plan to get it built on though in the near future. Might get a half sleeve and go from there. I have none. Same, I'm too pretty to mess up

They can be tidy if chosen right. Few of my mates have sleeves and they're all designed free hand but they all mean something and aren't random. I've got the welsh feathers but it needs redoing as the red has faded. Never again will I use red in a Tattoo. Although next one will be on the other arm. Just undecided what to have. It's funny I'm actually going against the grain by not having one. Everyone has them. I have 4 that I got in Aussie land when I was 16/17. I only did that because my father had loads of tattoos. But after the 4th one (a panther) my dad told me not to get anymore as I would regret it later on in years so I took his advice. Later on when I was married and we had our son & daughter I got a mate of mine in Southend-on-Sea, Essex, who was a part time tattooist, too put the name of my wife, son & daughter below a British lion tattoo & flag I got in Aussie land. They are all fading now and don't look good. It's true what Paul said, red is very bad for fading away. I have a Panther on my right arm and below the claws were red scratch marks tattooed in. They have vanished completely. Maybe the ink nowadays they use is a lot better than years ago?

A guy I know had a nasty reaction to the red in his tattoo, he ended up on anti- biotics, steroid injections and in the end a skin graft. Nasty.

All my tattoos had red inserted and blue, black & green. The union jack with red, a red robin, the panther which I mentioned and an eagle with a red scratch mark near its claws and beak. They have completely vanished yet the rest is still there?

My father had 2 tattoos on his hand's of robins and told me after my first tattoo "Never get them on the hands son, or you will make me angry" with a wink. I took his advice on that also seeing he was an ex navy boxer lol.

At least you'd get beaten with style I was doing boxing at the time in aussie land and what he meant was he would take me in the ring with a pair of gloves on and batter the shite out of me. And he would have done at that!!!!

Bare hands it's better, you'd remember it and never think of doing it on your hands My mom said she would rip my skin with a knife, by the end of the season I will lose some ribs

Forget my ugly face Stret but you can see the panther tattoo on my arm. The red ink has now vanished below the panther's claw and on the eagle. All you can see is blue, black & green but faded nowadays.That's wee Kaiden I am holding, our youngest grandson.

I have four tattoos, one on each arm (two half-sleeves), one on each pectoral. I used to have 5 earrings (3 right ear, 2 left), a nipple ring, and a nose ring. I took them all out. The nose ring kept getting deformed when I went to sparring class and got one in the nose. My nipple ring kept catching on my seatbelt and my wetsuit when I would go surfing. Sometimes your body never gets used to the foreign object, and even after 15 years it would still get sore, irritated, etc. Finally I had enough and got rid of it 5 years ago.
