Do you think it's ridiculous to get a tattoo at 16?

My step-mom wants to bring me to get a tattoo for my 16 birthday and I know what I want and I'm totally stoked about it but I was just wondering your views on it? My dad is against it.

It's not ridiculous, but remember that you may have it the rest of your life. Make sure that it's well executed, and that the subject is one that you won't tire of with age.

I just think it's so cool I know a few guys with tattoo's and they got tham at about 16 or 17 but I don't know any girls so I think it would be neat to be one of the only girls my age to have a tattoo! How much did yours hurt? And what is it of? (:

It hurts pretty bad. But I was REALLY young when I got mine. And it's a Snake but my body's grown so it looks like a giant turd now.

Depends what your gonna have done. It's no more rediculous than at 26 pr 36 yrs old. It's perminately a part of you.

If it is not something that will be important to you for life don't do it. My next tattoo will be covering up my first one.

Did you say you want it on the palm of your hand?
Report as
Yes, I know painful and it will fade easier.
Report as
Other than that I would just worry about going to shake someone who is interviewing you for a jobs hand. That won't be easy to cover up.
Report as
Yeah! It is going to be fairly small so it shouldn't be super noticeable if I was them I would probably assume it was pen if I didn't get a good look.

I wouldn't get it in a place where you can't cover it up, but no I'm not your parent and your mom said you could. I've always wanted a tattoo, your lucky. Good luck :)
