NO TATTOO!!

[jd_1984]

I imagine that tattoo's are seen as "cool", perhaps art, something that is individual to the person or even sexy?

I do not have a tattoo, and appear in the minority (based on people I know and work with and people my age that I see out and about).

But, is it now "cool" NOT to have a tattoo in anyones eyes??

[China Doll]

Having a tattoo is a personal choice, it's nether cool or uncool.

[Brenden]

Neither cool or uncool, just self mutilation.

I certainly don't want one, I think any tattoo is a mistake.

Good laugh on holiday, an elderly gent said to an otherwise pretty young lady - "Oh dear, love, looks like you've been lying on a newspaper, the print's come off all over your back...." :-)

[EvianBaby]

I don't consider either cool or uncool.

good one, boxy

Tattos are fine on native australian people and the like but they are a little bit 'chavy' on anyone else
Despite the fact that (I believe) HRH Prince Phil has one from his navy days

[jd_1984]

Everyone seems to be getting inked these days.
I feel that it is like a fashion in its own right, one that I am not following like the "crowd"

[Ric.ror]

I told both my sons I would write them out of my will if they got one
I also said if they did I would get one (like Becks with their names) and to emphasis it I bought some temp tatts from Ebay - sat there with a Manchester United logo on my arm one night - very classy

I love my tattoos and would have more if my other half wasn't against it.

[daffy654]

By the way, my first tattoo was in 1986, so long before the current 'fashion' for them.

[EvianBaby]

I really regret having my tattoo (got it at 18). It's one of those ones that may very well say kung po chicken. Luckily you can only see it if I have a bikini on or something but I'm still considering getting it changed.

After many years I still love my tattoo, but it does need re-colouring at the moment. I don't think having or not having tattoos is anything to do with cool...........

[B00]

Seriously thinking about tattoo number 5 :-)

[tonyav]

Neither cool or uncool, just personal choice or a fashion item.

[craft1948]

If you see one you really like go for it B00...............

[B00]

i know what I want (I think) its just waiting for Mr Boo to design it for me and then where it's gonna go.

[berniecuddles]

I've never seen the point in them especially when someone has them all over their body gross!!!

[divegirl]

I had my first at the age of 35 after years of wanting one. I love it and will never regret having it done, or the other three...or the one I will be having done as soon as I have some spare cash! [though that will be the last]
I am neither a chav or following the crowd, I wanted one so I got it. Simple.

I haven't got any, being aged, but they're neither cool nor uncool. What is perhaps more of a statement is how visible they are and when.

EvianBaby's probably says "Very cheap served with noodles". It's not a good idea getting one in a language you can't read.

[EvianBaby]

Couldn't agree more Jno! Which is why I'm glad I at least had the sense to have it done in a place that's not often in public viewing.
