In reply to the discussion: I've grown weary of tattoos. [View all]DebJ
(7,699 posts)40. It's just a shame sometimes that they are so permanent.
My daughter had a close friend who got the sleeves thing done around age 21.
Ten years later she was in my daughter's wedding, which was outside in the summer and
had sleeveless dresses, and she had come to regret her tattoos, and was extremely
embarrassed. No one said anything to her...her discomfort was because she regretted
the tattoos ten years later. And will have to live with that for all her years after age 31.
So it would be nice if they were easily removable. But, like many decisions in life, too late now.

I always like leaving the tattoos, scars and other distinguishing characteristics blank.
