I don’t know why, but I just hated them.
Any other people who went through the same sudden change ?
And here’s a friend of mine who tatted this young Iraqi kid in the U.S.

I’ve always, and still do, hate shitty tattoos. I didn’t like tattoos until I saw a girl that had a freaking amazing lion head on her back. It literally looked like it was going to fly off her back and eat my face off. Since then I have enjoyed the process of finding an artist and getting high quality work.
No I didnt like them at all. I’m with you. I was a good little girl and tattoos, piercings that weren’t ear lobes etc were bad.
Once I matured a bit i decided to get my upper ear pierced (still hated by my mother) and relaxed regarding body mods, but I still wasnt keen on tattoos. Then about two years ago I suddenly decided, for various reasons, that I wanted, or almost needed one. Since then I got into researching it, looking at magazines, and now I love nice ones 🙂 Got mine, broke my mother’s heart a bit. I spend half my time in public trying to subtly look at other people’s
Weird how you can suddenly change isn’t it? I think part of it is finding your own mind and not just accepting what you’re told by parents, society etc
I’ve actually always loved tattoos and been obsessed with them. I mena, I don’t remember as a small child but as soon as I got the internet when I was 12 (22 now) I joined body mod forums and stuff even though I had none, just because I was fascinated and wanted to talk to people with tattoos. I didn’t get my first one until I was 20 because I put a lot of deliberation into it, and still only have three currently.
However, for a while I was against certain things, like, I thought I would never get a chest piece or any tattoos near my breasts or any tattoos on my forearm… But my third tattoo is on my forearm haha. And while I have no plans to getting any chest work done anytime soon, I am not at all opposed to it.
Also neck tattoos. I used to think they were unnattractive but now am thinking about it.
I guess it was less about hating tattoos/thinking it was “wrong” to get them in certain places and more about what I found aethetically pleasing. Like I just didn’t like the look of chest pieces until recently.
Yeah I just didn’t like seeing them and the whole idea of losing your own skin for something you might like temporarily, but soon after I had my own tattoo, not only got into them. We went and shot a video by a director ( a friend of mine) and my best friend who got a tattoo and that was an emotional moment for me as well .. the kid’s mom’s gone and he finally got a tattoo he’s been wanting since Iraq for God’s sake.
The video I’m talking about is up there in the thread.. I don’t wanna “spam” again.
