Should I get a tattoo?

I'd like a tribal pattern on my shoulder, but want one that will enhance the shape of the shoulder too. Any hints?

Answers:
sounds good fella but only listen to advice from professionals like myself and only then listen to th ones that aren't trying to sell u a tattoo,ther's lotsa merceneries in th business2 money first ethics later.. stay away from black henna, it does contain dangerous chemicals, think long and hard if it's what u really want and check out th individual tattooist who works well in tribal styles, if they don't happily offer free advice just walk away and kee p looking.. get in touch if u wanna discuss any serious aspect of tattooing, loyal servant to the art, Dr J.. doctorjtattoo@yahoo.com((docto.
Nothing is more attractive than a tribal tattoo on a white guy.
Get it done. Do what you want, because if you do what someone else wants, you may not like it down the road.
get a life instead
NO! tattoos are forever thay never go away.. get a piercing instead.
nope
of course!! I recommend tats to ANYONE out there! I have 5 myself!
off center lines would make the shoulder look differant
i don't think you should get it. everybody that gets one has to pay for it to get touched up, and they say it wasn't worth it. If you really want to get one, make sure you go to the most expensive place you can and choose a design about two months before you go. if you don't get fed up with it after two months.i would still advise you not to get it!
Go ahead but don't get carried away.
If you get a tattoo, make sure its of special meaning to you. They are permanent. On the arm I like the tribal thing on a guy. Also, barbed wire looks cool. Maybe outdated though.
if you want hints about tatoos(what kind) you should go to a shop and ask the artist they might even make one just for you.
get something more original
if you realy no its what you want that you can get it but i would think it over more because i don't think you would like to have something permanent on your skin for ever.
It's your body do what you want with it. Just make sure you go to a couple of tatto places. You want to check out their work, and the cleaniness of the place.
get it done i have two day look savage on men especially tribal like robbie williams has some legendary ones get one dat enhances ur arm and makes them appear bigger stick to one colour id advise black happy huntin
If you have any tribal links then yes. If not, why bother? It's like an English man who wears a kilt. They just look dumb. Do something that means something. Don't stain your body for fashion.
get something different then what every other person in the damn world has..
Ask your Tribal Elders if you are worthy of sporting one of thier symbols on your body. If it's okay with them, they'd probably do it for you.
get it done i got a flower on my ankle 4 years ago and i have ever looked back since i have had 3 more done a spider a drangon and my babies name and none of them hurt me and im a girl
it may be the thing now but in thirty forty years it's gonna look like crap and with a tribal tat it's gonna be hard to remove later but if you really really want one skulls and devils aren't the thing anymore and if your a skinny wimp not saying you are but don't get this big macho tat cuz your gonna look goofy get something that matches your personality cuz it's permanent
The fact that the skin moves dramatically is often overlooked by tatoo artists. Draw it on yourself in pen or have the tatoo artist draw it on you to see how it looks in different positions. Figure that your arm is only going to get bigger so try to get a design that will still look good when it stretches out as you gain muscle. Do not expose it to the sun for at least the first two weeks or it will fade and spread much worse in the years to come. Also, covering more than 25% of the skin in black will cause you to get hotter quicker in the sun and retain more heat. I learned this from a friend of mine with 'full sleeve' tatoos that works outdoors.
Don't do it. It will last for ever and eventually you will not like it.
But if you are doing it, do it because you want to not because your friends are telling you to.
ask yourself this question.. "do you want a tatoo"? this is a serious, and personal question.. its what u want. we dont really care, so listen to your heart. do you want it come 78 years old? thats waht i thought!
When you finally decide think again they will always be there. I would also try to be as much involved with the disign and making it unique so you will always be proud of it. Good luck, and if you pay cheap you get cheap remember tatoos are like parachutes cheaper is not better. LOL
idk if u should get a tat..guys wit 2 many tats r not hott and in the future r u still gonna want a tat?
You shouldn't get a tatoo if you are doing it to be cool because that only ends up being cheesy. you should get a tatoo that has a lot of meaning for you. Those tatoos that women get on their backsides look ridiculous. The barbed wire one look silly. Only get a pattern that you know and understand the meaning of. Angelina Jolie is the only person I can think of that has some cool tatoos, besides my dad. My dad has a parrot on the back of his leg and a Texas Longhorn on his arm. Jolie has the latitude and longitude of a couple of countries on her upper arm. Both of these people have tatoos that have great meaning to them and mean nothing to anyone else. You need to think about this completely before you embark on something so permanent.
I'm not trying to be abusive here, but if you have to ask a bunch of us idiots on YA!, then no, you shouldn't get a tattoo. It will be with you FOREVER.
Make up your own design. That way you have to think about it, and it makes it special. Remember it is for ever!
You need to ask yourself a few questions before seriously deciding on a tattoo, after all it is permanent.

Questions:

Why do I want a tattoo?
Do I want a tribal pattern because it is such a popular design to get?
What does the tattoo mean to me?
Is this design something I can live with for the rest of my life?

Try and find something that has special meaning to you and you'll be happy with it. Just don't be so quick to get inked, think it over and make sure you choose the right design for you.
get the kind of tribal tattoos that starts from the shoulder caps you also need to get a design that accentuates your biceps and triceps. so get a clever one that "curves" in the way your biceps are shaped..
am i making any sense?
before you go, check for allergies. ie: latex allergies or ask the tattoo artist what kind of ink do they use and will it cause allergic reactions. better safe than sorry, right?

good luck!
