i was wondering, does anyone know how old you have to be over there to get a tattoo? im going in about 2 weeks so my parents will be with me, just wondering if theyll do it for me because im not 18 even with parental permission...

You dont say how old you are but business is business and im sure your money will be taken for a tattoo

Well the tattoo place in town over here certainly wouldn't do an under 18 year old, I know the owner, and he's very keen on keeping his business from being shut down.

I get a feeling though you probably wouldn't have too many problems getting one on your holidays, and as others have said in this thread, they seem to be good and know their stuff.

Only thing is..........I hope this doesn't sound patronising, it's just that I hope you're sure you know exactly what you want. Under 18 is quite young to get one, but if you're absolutely definately sure, then it's your decision
Please though, think once, twice and again about having one on your tummy. Might look great now with your flat stomach, but once you have kids..............

I personally do not see any attraction in having a tatoo and have never in all my many years considered having any. Can someone explain to me the reason why they have a tatoo or two, what pleasure are recieved been covered in inkie pictures.

My son had 2 done in gumbet last year also his girlfriend had one & they have faded quite a bit he is having them done over.
my advice is get it done at home dont work out any cheaper if you have to have it re-done i had my 3rd one done sat gone at home ,the attraction dont know just something each individual likes or dislikes

cheers dodge

Probably the same 'pleasure' people get from piercings, dying their hair, smoking or drinking half their wages away down the pub.

Does there have to be a reason?

Everyones different, no ones asking you to have one, but appreciate that everyones different and they dont have to give reasons or justify why they have, do or are anything.

The only advice i would give to ANYONE is when you go for a tattoo MAKE SURE the inks they have are american or British (best are made by a brummie company) if they are cheap watery turkish inks, dont bother..you will have a poor faded tattoo
