Honestly, the best thing you can do is wait.... I got my 1st one at 26, 2nd one at 28, and 4 in the year and a 1/2

They were all well thought out and symbolic to me. I can guarantee you would be hard pressed to find anyone else with the same Tattoos as me. No fads here

Also make sure you dont get a tattoo that you cant cover with only a t-shirt on (no forearms, names on necks, fingers, wrists etc.) ... People still judge on appearance unfortunately

Just think it through Adam.. I have 2 friends who own Tattoo shops.. were I live there are alot of shops come and go and dont turn out quality work and after time it shows... Not to mention people who really regret the things they get tattooed on them and look to get it modified years later.... Trust me Bro sometimes I help out at the front desk and there are a shitload of people scheduling getting coverups close to 50%
