    Never!! I've seen people with tatoos who are over the age of 65 and the tatoos look awful. Wrinkled and sagging. Not for me.

    While they are not for every one and I have seen many that were off putting to me, I do have one I had done over 12 years ago: special meaning to me and it is not placed "out for display"
    I would do another one but only for a very special reason, not just as art - not my thing - but I like this idea

    I would do a feather around my arm but I can't afford it. I got a three inch size tat 30 years ago and it cost $200. What would it cost today? Yikes

    It is an art form that people love or hate. I love them.

    Very nice machine you got!

    This from that wise old sage Maxine:

    "Do you realize that in about forty years, we'll have millions of old ladies running around with tattoos and pierced navels?" (Now that's scary!)

    I think she meant the tatoos were wrinkled and sagging.
