Where?
Nixx:
My apologies if this has been discussed, but here it goes: I'm considering a tattoo, but I'm not sure where to get one. I'm in the gym a lot, and I know that I'm going to be growing. My concern is that the tattoo may get stretched or disfigured. Is there some strategic place where it should go, or is the stretching, etc pretty negligible? I figure that some of you may have been in this situation before... Thanks for the info!

Nick-
My best advice is to get where you will be most comfortable with it. If you haven't been tattooed before, you should know that there are some places that are a bit more uncomfortable to gat a tattoo than others. head, neck, and back from what I've been told by my artist. i can't speak from experience since currently my only tattoo is a half sleeve on my upper arm. That area didn't really hurt at all.
You should get it where you can enjoy too. My wife got a great tatto on her back (that she added to later) and her complaint is that she can't see it to enjoy it.
As for the stretching, I imagine that it really isn't that much of an issue, but others may know better.

I got my 1st tat a almost a year ago and thought about the same thing. I ended up placing it on my outer right calf. It works for me. Location depends alot on what kind of tat you get to make sure it "fits". Just ask your artist what they would recommend.
Good luck, and let me know how you do! O0

I got my first on my back. Since I had decided what it would be years before that, I stuck to it. It was originally going to be on my left shoulder blade. It ended up being the entire upper half of my back. Looks pretty sweet though, my old man has one to match. The next two I have planned are going to be on my left pec, near my heart. I hear the chest hurts too, but the one on my back was eight hours and goes down to the ribs, on my spine, and part of the shoulder blades.
Good luck! Let us know how it turns out, and post a pic!
