I wanted something unique and different but also meaningful since I’m not about to get something generic in a sort of visible place. So I finally came upon the perfect image the other day! The catch, I’m not sure if this concept could be made into a "tattoo able" design without sketching it out myself, which I could try. And I know I could just go to the tattooist and have them sketch it out for me, but I’m 18 and don’t exactly have the extra cash for that kind of consultation in addition to the Tattoo itself. This will be my second tattoo, so spare me the spiel of tattoo regrets and thinking before I actually get it inked, I’m not doing this on a whim and I would only get this if it truly meant something.

~I’m planning to leave out the insects in the leaves, but other than that the chrysanthemums will be purple and the leaves a shaded gray. So…how can I do this without breaking the bank??

You want a custom tattoo but don’t want to pay for a custom tattoo. That tattoo has a lot of detail so it is not going to be cheap.

You say want a tattoo that is meaningful to you then select a picture of someone else’s tattoo and say that is what you want.

I’m planning to take Do Not Go Gentle and have it running along the back of my neck, sort of where my neck meets my spine. But I’m also considering putting a small image above the quote or maybe running through it/behind it but I’m not quite sure what to do that would relate to this quote. Any suggestions?

I’m not super artistic, but the first thing that comes to my mind is a series of stars…or something that looks like stars or …hmm.. the milky way.

Maybe something *like this…..

Something that represents the ‘night’…. I’m actually a fan of more ‘interperative’ tattoos when it comes to images…so you could work with the artist on some image that looks like/reminds you of a star but isn’t exactly the typical 5 pointed star like in this image.

Or you could get some version of a constillation that you like or represents something to you.

Just some suggestions to get your creative juices flowing. Sounds like a cool idea, good luck.

I do not have a good tolerance with pain but I do okay.

Yes tattoos can give you some pain no matter where you put it.
If you want a tattoo on your neck think about putting it on the back of you neck so it’s not too visible. That place can be sensitive as you go closer to the spine.
The wrist can be pain full if it’s going over the bones in the wrist. I haven’t had a neck tattoo done yet but from what I have heard I think the neck can be pain full. If you really want it on one location then just man up and do it. Try not to flinch or tense up as they are Tattooing you and have some thing to eat before you go, you can even even bring some music or a friend to help you relax.

..Not that I am aware of.

My husband got the same one with my detail and the place only charged 75.00 but that was on his right bicep. On your neck would be, of that picture, about 200.00

I’m planning on getting a Tattoo that would go down my ribs and maybe onto my stomach a bit, but I’m worried that when I’m older if I get pregnant it might get messed up. If that’s a strong possibility I would move the location of the tattoo.
If anyone has before and after photos of tattoos like this I would really like to see them, thanks :)

Everyone is different, but a good indicator of whether or not you have good elasticity is by looking at your parents. Do they have stretchmarks? How has their skin held up over time? Ask your mother what sort of effects pregnancy had on her stomach. Another is by looking at your skin right now, do you have any stretchmarks just from regular growing? If yes, you’re very likely to end up with them after pregnancy.

I would say if you’re worried, the USUAL areas affected by pregnancy are the stomach, starting from an inch or two above belly button from one side to the other all the way down to the pants line. If you want to avoid the possibility of a destroyed tattoo, better to be safe than sorry and put it as high and on the side as possible!
