Tattoo placement opinions (will delete later) (lemmy.ml)

Hey so I'll delete this in a bit so it doesn't clog up the page lol.

So the shoulder tattoo is the newest and I love it. I wasn't planning to get any more tattoos on my arms and I'm instead going to be moving to my legs.

But I'm almost kind of regretting getting the tattoo on a different arm than the first two.

For my legs...I was going to put them all on only one leg...the same side as the shoulder tattoo, leaving the other leg blank.

Do you think this balance looks fine, or is it missing something on one of these sides? I was dead set on calf and ankle placement for my next (same side as shoulder), but now I'm wondering if it should be on my arms instead.

I'm still 90% likely to go calf on the same side as a the shoulder, but I'm curious of your opinions.

Thanks and sorry for the dirty mirror!!! Don't judge I'll be cleaning up to host my family this weekend lmao!!

You should get the Mike Tyson tattoo across the face, fool!

Or the rare triple-Mike!

Well I was actually going to do this one but larger to spread across my entire face. Thoughts???

Shave the eye brows and get "NO RA" on one side and "GRATS" on the other.

Nah but for real I have chile friend with facial and head tattoos. Theirs looked sick af. Ragrets? Not even one.

To be real, I think at least in the US, tattoos in more odd, visible locations are becoming more accepted. They don't seem to be the total job stoppers they once were. They still most definitely are for many jobs, but not as many as they once were. One of my coworkers has some flowers up the side of her neck and I think it's very pretty. Not my bag at all, but some of these can be very cool.

My kanaka friend had neck tats, face tats, and "as above" on one side, and "so below" on the other side right where his dreaded mohawk would get shaved .

This is the second time I’ve interacted with you and I’d like to say I have no regrets.

Thanks, broski. Being a dingus is my favorite past time.
