Done? What is this "done"? ;) When I finish my sleeve I want a modification on my weedy seadragon, an addition to my octopus, a chest piece, a full back piece, and two tats on my legs.

I think once my left arm and back are done, I may be finished with tattoos... or I'll have a ton of ideas for more.
Ha! I work a very professional job and have run out of real estate. Also, I have a thing for symmetry. Most of my tattoos are in pairs and until I got my 10th a few months ago I felt lopsided. 10 feels juuuust right.Quote:

I've got a couple tattoos haven't figured out what else I want. Excuse the crappy pic it's hard to get one by myself.
I love tattoos and had always wanted one, but I only just got my first one May 2015 at the age of 28. I could never figure out what to get because I couldn't think of anything that I knew I'd love forever. Here's my first tattoo, in honor of my dad who we lost to cancer in February. He loved model planes and remote control planes. When he got sick he had to retire and he'd go to the park and fly planes every day. So I got an infinity symbol, incorporated a plane, and incorporated the last ECG that was taken at the hospital before he was sent home on hospice. It's super personal and I know that I'll never ever get tired of it. I'm holding my shoulder a bit high in this photo, but when I'm relaxed it looks level (not diagonal).
My next tattoo will be in the same place on the opposite shoulder and will be an anchor. He was an avid fisherman, and we used to spend so much family time on our boat fishing, tubing, and just hanging out. It's probably the reason that I love being around water so much!

How many here have nipple piercings? I'm thinking of getting mine re-pierced but I'm not sure if the same issues will crop up.
Issues being: i hate wearing bras and was constantly knocking them on things. Also the holes themselves constantly drained and it looked like the sides were...taking on the shape of the balls? Help? Advice? Is it worth it? I got frustrated and took them out after about a year...but I loved the look of them. (They did nothing for sensations, not for me).
(Sorry if this is random but this seemed like the right thread for it.)
I recently got a white anchor tattoo over my heart.

I just got my "be water" touched up and this tattoo:

I want like three more tattoos. Except I'm not supposed to be overly tattooed because of my job at Disney (le sigh) I mean as long as it's not visible it isn't a problem.
i still want a conch shell behind my ear , mermaid scales on my upper thigh, and a circle... But I don't know where to place said circle and I don't know how I want this circle
Wait I lie I want 4 tattoos. I want a mermaid but I don't know the placement or what kind
I know of at least three tattoos I want so far, but I'll probably want more. :P
In no order:
A small seahorse, maybe just an inch or two in size, probably in white and most likely on the back of my neck or my ankle.
A bamboo shark in watercolors. No idea where yet, but possibly my thigh over an old scar.
A black and watercolor underbust of shells and sea life with thin 'chains' and drapes.
I have four piercings and an ear cuff. Teachers seem to have a big problem with the cuff...
I really want to get a troll cross tattoo below my collar bone and next to my shoulder, there is a small dip there.
For all who don't know what a troll cross is, here is the one I hang on my wall: Attachment 34627
They are from Scandinavia and are meant to be made from iron? and are meant to keep the trolls away. The one on my wall I made and is from coloured clay... My dad hasn't gotten is forge set up so I can't make a real one yet.
But I want it as a tattoo to keep my mental "trolls" away, I suffer from depression on and off so I think this would help me. Don't know why but yeah.
Never heard of the troll cross before, that's really neat!
I have several tattoos, I have a Japanese Koi Fish side piece down my left side, I have a 3/4 sleeve of pin-up Disney princesses on my right arm, I have a day-of-the-dead Charmander on my hip bone, and a Kanji lettering tattoo that says "Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we do" down my back. From what I have seen, it hasn't really affected gigs, people are still willing to hire me and the mermaids in our company with tattoos, and I am the one with the most tattoos in the company!
I love the troll cross! In Ireland and other Celtic countries, iron is used to keep the faeries away, specifically from stealing children and replacing them with changelings.
I have a sea star on the top of my left foot, 2 piercings in each ear, and a nose ring (nostril.) Considering a septum ring, and I have an idea for a 2nd tattoo that I'm not ready to share yet. It may be a white tattoo, but I think it'll be woad blue with white details.
Okay I have to ask! I'm sorry if this has already been asked and answered. What do you do or say when you're a mermaid with a tattoo of a mermaid?

I just say that it's my mom or, if I'mfeeling adventurous, I tell them it's a famous mer singer . People get portraits of other people all the time.
I might be getting a couple tattoo with my husband.
he wants a Mickey and Minnie one ;-;
i might mermaidfy Minnie and sailorfy mickey
my tattoo count literally went from 4 to about 8. because im quitting the disneystore.
fish scale tat- thigh/stomach
small pink watercolour circle tatt- behind my neck/back area
conch shell tatt- behind the ear
mermaid Minnie mouse tatt - part of a couple tattoo with the hubby
geometric/watercolour galaxy spiritanimal tattoos - theres like 4 of them.... (lion, fawn, horned owl, and blue whale)
So I am planning on getting a mermaid tattoo and a moon in an art nouveau style. I'm looking for input on what colors to choose for the tail and the hair. I dont want it to look like ariel, as much as i love her, I want something different. Any ideas out there??

My Tattoo. Going to fill in her tail with scales on Friday the 12th.
Very pretty! I like her a lot, what colors are you having done?

Wahhhhh I love art nouveau mermaids!!
might I suggest "rose gold hair" and a red tail?
Oooo that sounds like a pretty idea.. red would certainly pop against a blue background.

Or a blue green purple tail (kinda like an aurora borealis) and silver hair? with little white spots for pearls
I keep thinking either mint green or the yellow-orange for the hair. Im afraid to put the purple and green together for fear of too much ariel-ness. But i like the aurora borealis idea.

Actually with it so dark like this i like it..
Sent from my SM-N910P using Tapatalk
Exactly like that!!
The yellow orange for the hair and a watching tail would work too.
im thinking Megan massacres hair :P
The only problem with yellows in tattoos is when it fades it just gives the skin there a yellow tinge. Sorry just my thought

Here's an update on all my tattoos so far😁 roses on my left arm (being built to a sleeve) SUPER bad pic of them but you get the idea! Sting on my right forearm, and an octopus on my back! (Old pic showing the octopus, but I haven't taken many photos of it)
As a performer, tattoos can add to your look by enhancing your mersona and making you stand out. They can help convey a unique character or story, especially in creative settings. For example, if you have Sibling Tattoo ideas, they can symbolize a strong bond and might add a personal touch to your performance. However, in certain events like children's parties or more formal gigs, you might want to cover them up with makeup if they don't fit the tone. Ultimately, it depends on the event and how you want to present yourself. Some performers embrace their tattoos as part of their persona, while others may choose to hide them for specific gigs. It’s all about flexibility and adapting to the audience.
