@rodster6 Wrong. There are millions of us. It's just that our views are suppressed and our comments removed from tattoo vlogs. 20 years ago, tattoos were widely regarded as self-mutilation, and everybody thought they looked cheap & tacky on women. Now, when a 16 year old girl uploads her "first tattoo" vlog - a generic off-the-wall slag tag she describes as "meaningful", we get roundly criticised for questioning her motives - which is why tattoos keep getting bigger, uglier & more visible.
my boyfriend in tennesse got a tattoo of my name and when he broke up w/ me b/c i was moving back to london and i sat there and laughed cause hes never gonna get my name off his arm.
i really agree with this, the first tattoo i got was a rip off of the tattoo racheal got on friends, heart on the hip, but in black. i love it but i wish it was more personal to me.
i sooo glad i designed my second tat a tribal inspired butterfly not telling wear it is incase people steal the idea lol i got it coz my dad used to call me butterfly when i was little
i love your tattoo by the way it's gorgeous. pinkie swear i won't copy lol
I draw my tattoos out before i get them, never picked them off a wall or book. But i will say they don't all have to mean something, all they should be is custom made for, then you have something nobody else has.
i kinda agree with you.. but then there are some stuff where i disagree?? like if someone takes one of the wall and if u like it then u can take that one.. lyk i hav a star but my frend got the same one n i dnt mind at all.. it might sound weird but its something that we both understand.. but anyway.. gd opinion though :)
I only have the one tattoo so far, but it means a lot to me, it's a treble clef and a little red heart. I don't think I'll ever regret it, just because it actually has a meaning.
I walked into a tattoo shop and spent an hour looking through the designs they had, picked one and got it done there and then - I've never regretted it since :]
when i went to get my first tattoo, i talked with the tattooist alot about this thingy here. He thinks it's stupid when people get tattoos, piercings etc just for getting one. I'm the only one in the worl to have this pic on me and i love it more than anything, coz the symbol means so many things to me. And it makes me feel safe. <3
so many people think tattoos are just to look cool. those people are wrong. if someone wants to get inked let them. let them get whatever they want. who cares if they regret it?? what's life without making mistakes?? if someone wants something off the wall then let them go for it. kat von d has the most random ink i have ever seen. she has "buff n stuff" on her knee! as long as you like it and are ready for a tattoo then by all means, ink up.
i have seen that tattoo a few times actually alot of ppl doodle the same thing so you tatt isn't really original other then u r named after the flower
This is the main reason for that, i know some with big ones on there arms and there nice people but they look pretty gay/moles but it does'nt bother me, as long as your good hearted. It's society to blame, the diff between a tattooed person & a non tattooed person is, a tattooed person does'nt care if you have one or not.
Alot of woman/ladies get small roses, rose buds on stems, little blue birds holding string with a heart attached. That's mainly because they want a tatt but a small tasteful one & where they can be hidden.
Hmmmm your a good sort but BUT what the FUCK are you dribbling about, i have 6 and have never seen someone with the same and they were off the wall. You say that if you are at a party and someone had the same it would "be like weird/bizzar... crap, if you have the same and the tatt is cool, then YOU BOTH made a good choice. Anyway as i said your a good sort
opinions. opinions. well what to say. i picked something off the wall and i do regret it. i am having it covered with a nautical star which is also off a wall.
not necesarily, i should have worded my comment better i guess. i regret the flower i picked off the wall but sometimes i do like it. it is the only one i go back and forth with. i was trying to say that SOME things (like a nautical star) can be picked off the wall and it is okay. i have a dove that i picked off the wall and i absolutely adore it. the flower i regret was a VERY spontaneous decision that i should have thought more about. atleast i will take my time considering a good coverup.
i wasn't going to reply but then i thought, "what the hell" first off how do you know i have made bad tattoo choice(s)?? you have never seen my ink. i have ONE that i maybe should have thought longer about. get over it. i have. secondly i have amazing tits that you will never have the pleasure of seeing OR touching. so please stop talking to me.
i personally have tattoos and love tattoos, but i really dont like the saying "I wanna get a tattoo". mainly just because i think its missing the whole point of the 'self expression' as it is called.
you should love the image and meaning before 'tattoo' even enters your mind, otherwise just wanting a tattoo 1. you will more then likley regret it, 2. it wont mean half as much as u make it out to mean, and 3 its just a choice of fashion...and fashions come and go.
if you don't like tattoos fine,don't get them. we aren't forcing you to get them or like them. meanwhile, leave us be to enjoy our own self expression. how dull would it be if we were all alike? i personally can't stand judgemental people who try to impose their views on others. so mind your own ya wankers! and this video is pointless and rambling!! bloody hell make your point!!
reply to jessequintanna........you say, a person who gets a tattoo is destroying there natural body?? wot....so you havent even pierced your ears? witch is changing your natural body?
I'm not trying to be judgmental, but I'm going to judge this video to be a bit rambling, thoug I suppose that makes this video fit with the theme of incoherence all of your videos have.
You're too complicated. Just follow your heart, some people get designs because they have strong emotions, associations or memories with it, even if the logo wasn't self-designed, big deal. Just do what you think is right and don't worry so much.
my friend who is just 13 got a tattoo of the heartagram and thought that if you're going to get a tattoo when you're so young then you should at least get something original..
is there anywhere in the u.k where a 16 year old can get a tattoo? i only want a small one ( bout 3cm sq ) will no tattoo parlour do it, even if i get my mum to come along?
i will tattoo u bring a needle or a blade and i canget some ink.. pffff :p but seriously wait for two years you may change your mind and come up with a more awesome idea.
some tattoo places will do them but its generally the shittier places where they aint got much to lose if they are sued or it comes out shit. ive wanted tattoos for about 4 years but im gonna wait a year till im 18 and then get them profesionaly done. but the again i want my whole shoulder and biceps done custom
I have lots of tattoos and I designed all of them, you weren't being judgemental or preaching, I totally agree with what you're saying. I imagine you realise that tattoo art IS an art, since you have one, but becoming a copy and paste takes the artistic liscence out of it. I just wrote an 8,000 essay on the smybolic meanings within tattoo imagery, and although one image can mean different things to different people, alot of the meaningless stuff used as tattoos means nothing symbolically.
Dumb people: do something that takes some brains. No wait, that's why you're dumb. OK, forget it. Ink yourselves to death. Really. Kids are starving in India. Your tatoo will really make a difference in the world. Wow. How cool.
The tatoo FAD (yes, that's what it is if you're too f*ing dumb to figure it out), the tatoo FAD of the past 15 years or so is just the dumbest ass thing that has come along since the pet rock. No, wait, the pet rock idea was brilliant. Tatoos = a ready-made analogy, i.e., your individuality is only skin deep.
Seriously tattoos are art. If I was really familiar with an artist's work and was really confident with their ability, I would totally let them freehand something on me. Someplace like my back of course, I can't have visible tattoos in my profession. For a lot of people the tattoo doesn't have to have meaning for them personally. I've seen some beautiful freehand stuff by some amazing artists. The artist comes first, then the tattooing.
Preach on! I personally hate it when people get tattoos to try and look cool. Seriously if you want to be an individual DON'T GET INKED! But if you are gonna do it, get something that means something TO YOU!
i have a tattoo i designed myself, but how likely is it that you are going to bump into someone with the sam tat if you got it off the wall? i like you....but you just lost some brownie points :( ha
You have a tattoo??? I never saw that coming. LOL A relevant tattoo at that. Brilliant. I'm not cool enough to get a tattoo. I can't make decisions that are so permanant. I'd probably design something, love it to bits.. then wake up in the morning and think, "What is this hideous thing doing on my spine?"
I love being unique so I myself have done the same as you. My tattoo is a piece of music which I wrote. I took a bar of it and had it placed, at the time a not so common area, below the belly button about to my pubic bone. I choose that particular area due to the fact that if I choose anyone to see it they can otherwise it's a piece of me and not all of myself is exposed to people everyday. I would love to see why you choose the area you did for your tattoo.
I agree. It's seems strange to me that someone would walk into a tattoo shop and choose something off the wall. Tattoos last forever and why wouldn't someone want to spend the time to think about it and choose something ahead of time? Obviously not everyone is creative and not everyone can draw, but at least pick something beautiful that represents you personally and has significance.
My tattoo was off the wall but altered to suit me. I am not very good at art but i finally knew what i wanted (it took me 3 years to decide) but couldnt design it my self. I went to the tattoo parlour and the owner (someone i know) pointed a few things out that were similar to what i had in mind and then i picked one and we sat down and made the alterations on paper. BTW my tat is a small seahorse on my stomach. Its usually covered up but i can see it when i want to.
Wonderful Tattoo I agree with you. The should be personal to the individual all mine have been cutomly designed for me by My Tattoo artist. Each one represents a period or moment in my life.
tattoo's are personal and should be something that takes alot of consideration to make a decision to have it done, i dont have any tattoos (yet) but then i still have the option to get one later in life when im more mature to make the choice for me
Love the tatoo, i agree, art is personal and anything emblazoned on your body for life should reflect something meaningful. In highschool i tatooed "Blind Faith" on my knuckles with a knife and india ink, like most bright ideas of that nature, it didn't work very well, but i still have a 'D' on the lower part of my right pinky....
How could you not have seen one of Nick's videos yet? He is such a great vlogger.
Anyway, what an intriguing spot to place a tatoo. That way, you won't have to look at it everyday. Plus, the shot when you removed your glasses and showed it to us was one of my favourite scenes on YouTube of all time. Take it from someone who's watched more than 13 thousand videos.
the favorite spot I have seen a tatoo, was when I went to church. one of the sisters there had a tatoo at her ankle. tho I tried to get as close as possible, I couldn't recognize the motiv. maybe I get a grip and go for a crawl next time. Its so timewasting to be always this curious, thinking bout her ankles. strange. ;D
but, to be honest, I don't care about tatoos at ankles or pierced tongues. just important that you have some inner values you can't sticker yourself with. cheerio.
I agree and I have first hand experience. I got a tattoo of Felix the Cat on my calf when I turned 18, and I wish I took the time to come up with something on my own instead of picking something out of a book. I've never seen a tat behind the ear before. I'm willing to bet thats on the top ten list of most painful places to get a tat.
Hey see your point kinda, i have a few tatt's but only one i've designed, i beleive that people place to much importance in thing's like that though.
My first tatt was a spur of the moment thing and that's the way i like it, i have free hand tatt's from a mate who is a tattoo artist that i have no creative input in at all, your skin is just a canvas to wear somebody else's artwork is an honor, but that's just me.
Not to be horribly strange or stalker-ish, but when you took off your glasses and showed your tattoo, it was (inexplicably) very sensual... I watched it a couple of times, actually. *sheepish grin* Sorry if that's me being a creepazoid, but it's true.
Your talking about not having a sign-off is almost becoming a uniquely "PaperLillies" sign-off of it's own.
My tatoo's totally generic, I'm sure 1000's of people have the exact same one, and I don't care at all, for me it's more about the reasons I went for that design than the actual image itself.
I knew this girl in college, she was about to be married that summer and was interested in finding a song to be played at her wedding.
When I went with her to the music shop she requested from the clerk "cds that had wedding songs" on them.
I asked her why didn't she choose something herself that had special meaning to her & the bride to be but she had no answer. I thought, how sad this was.
I hate tattoos. They seem cool when you're drunk, and the next morning you wake up and you're all like Oh shit, but then you're stuck with them forever. They're a lot like people really. I hate people. If I ever got a tattoo, it would have to read I HATE TATTOOS in big blackletter writing, but then people would think I'm an idiot, which I'm so not.
OMG!!! 29th comment! LOLZ! UR H0TttT!!!1!11oneoneone!
Seriously, though ... a buddy of mine told me he'd get ANY tattoo as long as I paid for it. As soon as I save up enough to take him up on this, I plan on making him get a pink bunny praying on his stomach with the words "THUG LIFE" written in Olde English lettering above it. It'll be money well-spent the way I see it.
the main reason why i've never gotten a tattoo is because i would just get sick of seeing the same thing on me everyday. maybe if it were possible to have an ever revolving door of tattoos, then maybe i'd look into it! lol!
it's cool how you picked your own artwork though. you can't get anymore original than that.
When I got my labret done, I was looking at the example designs on the walls and just couldn't imagine getting any of them done. While there was talent there, there was such a lack of creativity.
Tattoos should have meaning, not just be there "to look cool" or "to be unique." I never understood why people would do that.
A good point, another issue I would raise id the time element as well. At 20 you can get away with a megadeath tatoo, and I am sure it would be an interesting talking point with your perspective partners parents and then your kids but by the time you are queuing for your pension you really have ggot some explaining to do (and of course not you personally) I'd be tempted to go for the barcoding if it got me through the airpirt queue faster
I've always wanted to get a tatt but it would have to be my own creation, otherwise you might as well see how much Burger King would pay to have their logo tattooed on.
Coming up with a good signoff can be tricky. You should write down a list of possible signoffs - even if they are really cheesy - and just go down the list, using a different one at the end of each video. Eventually one of them will feel really natural, and you can use that. See ya!
The only tattoo I have ever seriously considered getting is a tattoo from one of my favorite books. The thing is I would want to get it is on my front left forearm andI'm not quite sure I want a tattoo in such an open spot. On the one hand it would be cool cus not many people would know what it was unless you had read the book but on the other hand my friends who already have tattoos have told me that once you get a tattoo in a really visible spot no one ever looks at you the same again.
I could never get a tattoo picked off a wall or just some random tattoo of something that didn't matter to me. My friend is actually thinking about getting a tattoo, He's been asking everyone what they think he should get and when he asked me I said to make sure he get something that means something to him and that isn't something everyone else has like a Japanese word or barbed wire around your arm. He originally was thinking about getting a Japanese symbol but I talked him out of that.
I drew up two of my dads tats one is of mickey mouse on a cliff with merlins hat on and hes shooting fireworks from a wand. . my dad surprised me and put my name in the fireworks lol and the other one was three dolphins jumping over the moon a mom a dad and a baby and for my mom i drew this awesome butterfly with our initials in it and the scorpio symbol we are all born within 7 days of eachother in October :P I'm rambling sorry
I remember watching that vlog by Nicktendo a while ago now, although this topic seems to come up about every couple of weeks on YouTube - a bit like the haters vlogs!
Anyway I agree, I'd only get a tattoo if it was something original and I'd probably want to design it myself.
btw I heard a stat the other day claiming that in the UK more women than men have a tattoo.
I might suggest "I love JunkmanJim" tattooed in large letters. You pick the spot of course, maybe on your neck would look nice. I can work up a design if you wish, in sort of a rubbishy font. At least think about it, if you do it first, I will get Paperlilies on me, lol.
interesting, i've got a few (5) tattoos myself, i thought about doing a vid showing and explaining them (some have a pretty long explaination for its meaning), just been waiting for the right time to do the vid, i guess after this i'll prolly do one tomorrow (might respond it here if that's ok) i think in a few of my vids my tats are visible, can't remember which and not gonna post a url here cuz i don't wanna be 1 of those guys who coments and posts urls of their vids
I have two tattoo's, both of butterflies! So I have a theme going. I want to change the color of one of them and it's so tiny so its possible for me to do. I love your name, I like odd names. I guess since I have such an odd name as well. =)
I completely agree with you about generic tattoo art. To me tattoos are something very personal and permanent (duh), that I feel should be unique and have strong personal significance. Once I figure out exactly what I want it to say, I'm going to get a tattoo about writing or being a writer, because it is such a huge part of me and I know I will still cherish it when I'm old and wrinkled.
SO I understand where you're coming from, aethetically speaking, but it's people's body and they really shouldn't have to adhere to anyone's ideals. It's like someone saying everyone had to wear yellow shirts and nothing else.
I seem to be the only person on the planet who doesnt like tattoos. They look so cheap and common and I find them such a turn off on women.

I have lots of tattoos and I designed all of them, you weren't being judgemental or preaching, I totally agree with what you're saying. I imagine you realise that tattoo art IS an art, since you have one, but becoming a copy and paste takes the artistic liscence out of it. I just wrote an 8,000 essay on the smybolic meanings within tattoo imagery, and although one image can mean different things to different people, alot of the meaningless stuff used as tattoos means nothing symbolically.

The tatoo FAD (yes, that's what it is if you're too f*ing dumb to figure it out), the tatoo FAD of the past 15 years or so is just the dumbest ass thing that has come along since the pet rock. No, wait, the pet rock idea was brilliant. Tatoos = a ready-made analogy, i.e., your individuality is only skin deep.

Seriously tattoos are art. If I was really familiar with an artist's work and was really confident with their ability, I would totally let them freehand something on me. Someplace like my back of course, I can't have visible tattoos in my profession. For a lot of people the tattoo doesn't have to have meaning for them personally. I've seen some beautiful freehand stuff by some amazing artists. The artist comes first, then the tattooing.

I love being unique so I myself have done the same as you. My tattoo is a piece of music which I wrote. I took a bar of it and had it placed, at the time a not so common area, below the belly button about to my pubic bone. I choose that particular area due to the fact that if I choose anyone to see it they can otherwise it's a piece of me and not all of myself is exposed to people everyday. I would love to see why you choose the area you did for your tattoo.

I agree. It's seems strange to me that someone would walk into a tattoo shop and choose something off the wall. Tattoos last forever and why wouldn't someone want to spend the time to think about it and choose something ahead of time? Obviously not everyone is creative and not everyone can draw, but at least pick something beautiful that represents you personally and has significance.
ThrivingIvy 5 years ago
My tattoo was off the wall but altered to suit me. I am not very good at art but i finally knew what i wanted (it took me 3 years to decide) but couldnt design it my self. I went to the tattoo parlour and the owner (someone i know) pointed a few things out that were similar to what i had in mind and then i picked one and we sat down and made the alterations on paper. BTW my tat is a small seahorse on my stomach. Its usually covered up but i can see it when i want to.

Love the tatoo, i agree, art is personal and anything emblazoned on your body for life should reflect something meaningful. In highschool i tatooed "Blind Faith" on my knuckles with a knife and india ink, like most bright ideas of that nature, it didn't work very well, but i still have a 'D' on the lower part of my right pinky....

How could you not have seen one of Nick's videos yet? He is such a great vlogger.
Anyway, what an intriguing spot to place a tatoo. That way, you won't have to look at it everyday. Plus, the shot when you removed your glasses and showed it to us was one of my favourite scenes on YouTube of all time. Take it from someone who's watched more than 13 thousand videos.

the favorite spot I have seen a tatoo, was when I went to church. one of the sisters there had a tatoo at her ankle. tho I tried to get as close as possible, I couldn't recognize the motiv. maybe I get a grip and go for a crawl next time. Its so timewasting to be always this curious, thinking bout her ankles. strange. ;D

I agree and I have first hand experience. I got a tattoo of Felix the Cat on my calf when I turned 18, and I wish I took the time to come up with something on my own instead of picking something out of a book. I've never seen a tat behind the ear before. I'm willing to bet thats on the top ten list of most painful places to get a tat.
aRByEBS 5 years ago
Hey see your point kinda, i have a few tatt's but only one i've designed, i beleive that people place to much importance in thing's like that though.
My first tatt was a spur of the moment thing and that's the way i like it, i have free hand tatt's from a mate who is a tattoo artist that i have no creative input in at all, your skin is just a canvas to wear somebody else's artwork is an honor, but that's just me.
Bennetron 5 years ago
Not to be horribly strange or stalker-ish, but when you took off your glasses and showed your tattoo, it was (inexplicably) very sensual... I watched it a couple of times, actually. *sheepish grin* Sorry if that's me being a creepazoid, but it's true.
CasualtyofClever 5 years ago
Your talking about not having a sign-off is almost becoming a uniquely "PaperLillies" sign-off of it's own.
My tatoo's totally generic, I'm sure 1000's of people have the exact same one, and I don't care at all, for me it's more about the reasons I went for that design than the actual image itself.

I knew this girl in college, she was about to be married that summer and was interested in finding a song to be played at her wedding.
When I went with her to the music shop she requested from the clerk "cds that had wedding songs" on them.
I asked her why didn't she choose something herself that had special meaning to her & the bride to be but she had no answer. I thought, how sad this was.

I hate tattoos. They seem cool when you're drunk, and the next morning you wake up and you're all like Oh shit, but then you're stuck with them forever. They're a lot like people really.

the main reason why i've never gotten a tattoo is because i would just get sick of seeing the same thing on me everyday. maybe if it were possible to have an ever revolving door of tattoos, then maybe i'd look into it! lol!

I've got to agree with you there.
When I got my labret done, I was looking at the example designs on the walls and just couldn't imagine getting any of them done. While there was talent there, there was such a lack of creativity.
Tattoos should have meaning, not just be there "to look cool" or "to be unique." I never understood why people would do that.
thenextksmith 5 years ago
A good point, another issue I would raise id the time element as well. At 20 you can get away with a megadeath tatoo, and I am sure it would be an interesting talking point with your perspective partners parents and then your kids but by the time you are queuing for your pension you really have ggot some explaining to do (and of course not you personally) I'd be tempted to go for the barcoding if it got me through the airpirt queue faster

Coming up with a good signoff can be tricky. You should write down a list of possible signoffs - even if they are really cheesy - and just go down the list, using a different one at the end of each video. Eventually one of them will feel really natural, and you can use that. See ya!

The only tattoo I have ever seriously considered getting is a tattoo from one of my favorite books. The thing is I would want to get it is on my front left forearm andI'm not quite sure I want a tattoo in such an open spot. On the one hand it would be cool cus not many people would know what it was unless you had read the book but on the other hand my friends who already have tattoos have told me that once you get a tattoo in a really visible spot no one ever looks at you the same again.

I could never get a tattoo picked off a wall or just some random tattoo of something that didn't matter to me. My friend is actually thinking about getting a tattoo, He's been asking everyone what they think he should get and when he asked me I said to make sure he get something that means something to him and that isn't something everyone else has like a Japanese word or barbed wire around your arm. He originally was thinking about getting a Japanese symbol but I talked him out of that.

I might suggest "I love JunkmanJim" tattooed in large letters. You pick the spot of course, maybe on your neck would look nice. I can work up a design if you wish, in sort of a rubbishy font. At least think about it, if you do it first, I will get Paperlilies on me, lol.

I completely agree with you about generic tattoo art. To me tattoos are something very personal and permanent (duh), that I feel should be unique and have strong personal significance. Once I figure out exactly what I want it to say, I'm going to get a tattoo about writing or being a writer, because it is such a huge part of me and I know I will still cherish it when I'm old and wrinkled.
