i had 2 tattoos done when I was 17. Crappy cheesy dolphin on my right hip (as I loved Miami Dolphins... and anything Dolphiny) and a butterfly on my right foot.
tacky I know. They cost a total of $35. small, girly ones. Then I realised I actually got a buzz (excuse pun) from getting them done and went back and got scenery for Dolphin (palm tree, sunset.. lol)
then 6 months later realised how fucking trashy they were. Started process of removal. Lazer treatment. OH MY FUCKING GOD, IT HURT!!!
Hurts 10 times more than tattoo itself and the lazer literally pops open your skin and i was spattered with blood. Smelled like burned hair as it hit my skin, felt like someone whipping my hip with a towel repeatedly (x 100) then it blisters up and fills with blood.
18 sessions later and over 1,500 POUNDS - the butterfly has gone. The remnants of the dolphin are still there. it now looks like a bruise, with fine white scars from the outline of the dolphin.
Ask yourself before you get a tattoo - will I like this in 30 years time? because I hated mine in 6 months. You wont be wearing the same clothes 10 years from now, or have the same tastes. So why get something permanent on your skin. They look good on rockstars / sexgod actors only.. not Mr Average
