I have a question for everyone else out here who has ink

I’m thinking of getting another tattoo. All of the ones I currently have are easily covered by normal daily clothing. But I have an idea for something small that would go really well on my inner wrist. I spoke to my artist and he said he’ll do it but was very specific about telling me to think carefully about it as it is one place that can never really be hidden.

I have no problem with it, nor do I think it’ll present a problem in my field of work, but there is still some stigma to having them, especially on such a conspicuous place. I went so far as to have him stencil it for me and wore the stenciled version for about a week. I didn’t get any bad feedback from my co workers, but I wasn’t out showing it off to everyone I could find.

Is there anyone else who has ink there and what has been the general reaction to it, and have you regretted getting it there at all? What would your initial reaction to someone with one there be in general?

Thanks for the feedback and potentially helping me make my decision.

I don't have one there, but I've considered it and here's what I concluded...

I personally would put it higher up on my wrist, so as to cover it up with a long sleeve shirt if really necessary. That, or, make it small enough that it can be covered by a watch or wristband of some kind.

I'm a stay at home mom now, so I don't need to interview for jobs, but all of my tats are/will be able to to covered up at some point just in case there's that crucial job interview or someone I need to impress. That's just me though, and a lot of people are different. It's all up to you and what you are comfortable with. Personally, I wouldn't worry about the "stigma" unless it could mean your job. I rock my tats proudly otherwise, and if someone doesn't like them, they can just look away.

I would say go ahead and get your eentire upper body done....thats what i am aiming for.

one of these days, I'ma finish my shit...
