Just like Heisenberg said and infection. Slight possibility of septic shock if infected and not treated. Needle must be clean. Go to a reputable tattoo shop.

people always ask me, "well when you are 85 years old and it looks like crap, you will regret it"

BS

when I am 85, that will be the least of my worries.... more like whether or not i have to wear depends

i dont like big ugly tattoos, but i dont mind stuff that is either artistic or not able to be seen blatantly.

for example, lower back tattoos on girls can be hot.

why are there alot of tattoo haters here? There are some douche bags that act like they are the shiznits with tattoos... but there are also people that get it because they enjoy body art. Tattoo's have been around for a long long time now... unless you are trying to do UV tattoo or other fancy ink tattoo's I think it is safe... oh yea, need to find reputable and clean shops too.

Because I assume you're at least a high school aged person. What person that age doesn't realize that needle + blood might carry some complications? It's like asking if there's any danger in unprotected sex. DUH.

wow. you need to chill. i didnt put in the OP all of the assumed dangers. i meant big stuff like hepatitis...and how clean the places are that do tattoos.

you dont need to over-react and get all pissy by assuming people dont understand trivial things. maybe you just need to vent some internal anger for whatever reason, so if thats why you are such a negative person by default then by all means persist. it certainly isnt bothering me.

rarely if ever attractive. a small flower or heart or something on a woman might be ok..if she's hot to begin with. other then that it rarely if ever adds anything to a person besides lowering level of percieved class on first impressions.its also because the lines/colors are so icky fuzzy and dull. its just so limited an artform in the first place. stuff is best used for tagging farm animals

dougs an idiot man, dont worry about him...anyway yeah i was thinking of perhaps getting one...something small and meaningful on my shoulder. it would be small and be able to be covered up by a short sleeve.
