Glad that this is back to tattoo's and not higher edjumacation...
Ive contemplated one for years, but haven't found that one special image that I consistently love... I want something that incorporates my kids names, and my off road hobby... I was thinking of getting some box wrenches with their names across the handle in either a craftsman or snap-on font, and their DOB where the size of the wrench would be...
As far as the get what you paid for theory... My wife got a sun tat on the bottom of her back when she was 20... She got it for free... She got it on a whim... the "Artist" did it free hand, without drawing it out first and letting her see it... She got a real bargain!!! I guess in the end she did pay for it. it cost around $1000 and 6 or 7 sessions to get it lasered off!!!
So I am being really cautious about getting one...
