So, I can’t really think of "meaningful" tattoos to get yet that i would like. But i am a fan of the tribal style tattoos though, I am 18 and have a pretty fit body. Something ive been wanting is a tribal over my shoulder/upperarm that creeps kind of onto my chest/neck area.
I also want to get a sleeve on the other arm, but idk what i would include in it.
I personally dont think i would regret it that much, i think they look great and wouldnt bother me. When im really old oh well, by then ill deal with it, or with the removal business growing year after year im sure something would be available by then.
Anyone have any tips mon brainstorming meaningful tattoos as well?
not a fan of tribal.
and get rid of that stereotype that tattoos have to be "meaningful". it’s your body, do what you want with it.

My only tip is that you should wait untill your 100% sure you want that tattoo. It took me almost a year and a half since I first wanted to get a tattoo to actually getting one because I had to decide on it. Also one that is meaningful I think is better than just a design because then you can say oh i got this because of…….not oh I got this because it looked cool. Hope this helps

I guess the only thing I can think of is think of how many people have tribal tattoos. Tattoo’s I feel should be unique, different, uncommon. Do you really want to follow the crowd. I have a cross and now look back and think, wow how unoriginal. So on my next tattoo I really thought and came up with something I’ve only seen like 4 or 5 people have on the internet and my font and such are original.

Good luck with whatever you go with though.

Tattoos don’t have to have ‘deep personal meaning’. You can get one just because you like it. Depite what the television tattoo shop/soap operas would have you believe. It’s your money, your skin, and your ink. Get whatever melts your butter.

Tribal tattoos are a horrible idea except if your in a tribe. My husband who is actually in a tribe wont get tribal because "bro’s" take advantage of them. Did you know every line every detail means a specific thing. How do you know your not getting anything on your body about someone elses family?
