...The less I want 'em on my body. I mean I like tattoos and people with huge tattoos all over their body, but there are big problems about it. The most recent one -to me- is the fact that when you get a tattoo it's probably an unoriginal one, and it's stick to some trend even if you're not aware about it.
This also made me think about a friend who had a completely brand new tattoo made for him. Well I one night I saw the same drawing on the body of a random guy at a night club. Never told them.
This is a nightmare, to me. I mean, one of the tattoo that I'd like to have is not even a very original one, it's a kind of popular thing that has more than one meaning to me. WHAT IF, one day this thing becomes trendy and BOOM, everyone makes a tattoo out of it? I'd go cruuuzy.
That's why i typically take ideas & change them to my liking. Or if anything then I simply draw my own. & Now I do tattoos too so I can draw AND tattoo it on myself if I really want to 馃し no worries here
My advice to anyone considering a tattoo would be to worry less about being original and more about suiting your own taste. Nobody is truly original. We all see the same things, we're all limited by the same colours and geometric shapes. Anything that we think is original has been done. That's just inevitable. So just do you, be bold, and remember that your choice may be expensive and painful to undo if you regret it later.
