Mermaid Tattoo's?

[Mermaid Christin]

I'm planning on getting a mermaid inspired one soon, I've been obsessing about it forever now!

Henna is an excellent option once I'm done fully designing mine i want to have it put on me with henna so I can live with it for a while before committing.

I've been doing this for a few weeks now, it works pretty well! The only thing I've noticed is that the henna doesn't stain very dark on the part of my body I want tattooed so I have to apply several applications to get the effect I want.

Hello!
@Sephina I really like your Koi tattoo. I'm going to get a Koi tattoo in the near future (I hope) and I was searching for some placement ideas. The behind the ear placement idea seems super cool, maybe I'll choose the spot. Can I ask you a few questions if you don't mind? What the behind the ear placement idea a personal choice? Or a random choice? Is there some sort of personal meaning behind the tattoo? (One of the reason I want to get this type of tattoo is because of the meaning: is means prosperity, ambition and success and much more).

@MerGrl23 really cool tattoo you want to get. Do you have any pictures of the tattoo you'll get?

So instead of doing the whole tattooed leg, I decided to get this!


First picture is right after finishing the lines.
Second picture is about a half hour later.
I'll be getting it shaded in a few weeks, then after that color

That looks like it's going to be really awesome, Tula! And I love how bold and beautiful yours is Sirenia Healed up nicely!

[Mermaid Tula]

Thanks Ellowyn! I still need to figure out the color scheme for her. I'm thinking purples and greens, kind of like my avatar.

I have Ariel on arm, in a part of my Disney sleeve project.
But since I love Ariel so much she was the first. The tattoos are a cover up, from a sad past in my life where I did self injury. But now Ariel is covering my past, and she always makes me happy, and reminds me that life is worth it

[Mermaid Leira]

[Mermaid Amelia]

No tattoos myself ( not that I don't love them on other people, it's just too much of a commitment for me!) I have always loved this tattoo my sister has along her side/ribs area

Hi there! I have three I have an ellipses on my finger, and then I have a bird on one hip (soon to be matched on the other side) and a large piece on my lower stomach. All of them match in color... I wanted henna designs all over my body, like the doll I posted. Working up to that point. I designed all of them so they are very personal, and I think they are very tasteful and organic, I have never once regretted the decision. When you know what you want, you know! I think the important thing is to recognize that if you get one, you will likely get others, so settling on the style is very important. If the tattoos are tasteful and well-done, usually even people who don't like tattoos will compliment you on them.

I've wanted a mermaid scale tattoo for over 2 years now and am finally getting it done! I just had my outline done for my large-scale (pun intended) tattoo yesterday! I am getting this filled in with watercolor of purples, mints, and a hint of orange/gold in a few weeks. SO EXCITED.

Looks great! (Also, hehe a butt)

aw thank you!!! I love them soooo much! honestly, my artist has been doing /such/ a good job

My understanding is that you can 'tattoo' silicone so perhaps if you purchased a pure silicone tail from Mike, Raven or Eric you could then take it to an artist or a school and have them actually tattoo your tail.

This is what I want to do. I want to get my design for my silicone tail, then have the matching scales tattooed on my lower back. <3
