common tattoo questions: "what should i get?" - whatever you want. don’t ask anyone on this forum, because you probably wont get a serious answer. it’s your body, put something you like. "can you draw something up for me?" - have your tattoo artist do it. that’s what he/she gets paid for. "does it hurt?" - of course it hurts. it’s a bunch of needles puncturing your skin over and over. "how much will it cost?" - talk to an artist, in person. every shop charges differently and really, who shops cost? is IS art, or should be. "how do i find a tattoo artist?" - ask around, check out his/her portfolio, check out his/her work. "do jobs discriminate against tattoos?" - some do. either get the tattoo somewhere you can hide it easily or make sure your job will allow them. "is it safe to have my friend tattoo me?" - is your friend a tattoo artist that works at a reputable shop? "where can i get a cheap tattoo?" most of the time you get what you pay for. check out lots of shops, artists, portfolios and go with the work you like best. there is a time to be cheap and it’s not when it’s something that’s going to be on your body forever. this is a tattoo group, not a bulletin board. talk about your group somewhere else. like yo momma's house. if you post your photos, deal with the comments. if you don’t want to hear what people think of them, don’t put ’em online. - i know there are things i didn’t answer. to be honest with ya, i’m lazy. i’ll do it some other time (but probably not).
