I am not in favor of rushing, especially when it comes to tattooing.
(WARNING: this is just my opinion. But I have seen the ‘tattoo trend’ taking off…)
I waited until I was 25 to get my first tattoo. AND THAT’S OK!
Tattoo It is first and foremost art, and art has a cost.therefore a budget item (if you want something not too low quality), but above all it is a moment in our lifeIt's a "stamp" of what we are/like/think... to a powerful moment from our past.
But our lives/ideas/tastes change And thankfully I didn't do that stupid and so conventional *$ùm(!gd%# »k-è@?!
It's not a problem to rush things either, if it's totally you and your personality.
Everyone is free to do what they want.
For those who are still hesitant, I have some advice for you:
- Try out the decals (they're not just for kids):
There's something for everyone, in all shapes and sizes, even customizable! And the advantage is that it disappears! - Draw on yourself:
Using a felt-tip pen/pen/makeup pencil, draw a "thing" where you'd like to have a tattoo and "live" with it for several days. to get used to this presence. - Think carefully about the meaning (both literal and figurative):
It would be a shame to get a tattoo containing a spelling mistake, an insult in Japanese, or a symbol of hate. does this really represent what you think?… but if that’s what you want, no problem, you’re the one who wears it, not me. - Don't ask too many people for their opinions:
You're doing it for yourself, not for them. I do not question their opinion (which may be relevant), but one can sometimes be stifled and/or influenced (by the fear of disappointing) because of their judgmental gaze which imposes paths on your personality. - Take your time and do your research:
about the act of getting a tattoo (ask questions) and about choosing the tattoo artist according to your needs.
