But I still regret it.Īnother tattoo I get a lot of compliments for is on my neck. It took six, four-to-five hour sessions and it's colorful and beautiful. I get stopped about one on my left forearm all the time. Some of my tattoos are 15 years old, but they've held up very well. I probably should have done something better with that money when I was in my twenties. They were pretty expensive, which could be a regret in itself. The tattoo art is great and I still get a ton of compliments. I'm not getting all of my tattoos removed that's not even feasible. Now I have adult problems and have gone back to stuff I liked doing when I was a kid, like collecting antiques and spending time outside. I have a lot more femme, girly aesthetic than when I was younger. They reflected a moment of time in my twenties-a moment in time that I was not doing so well mentally-and they are here forever. I have all these tattoos that don't necessarily reflect who I am at 36. I think if you asked almost anybody that's over 30, if they have a better idea of who they are in their thirties than in their twenties, they will strongly relate to how I feel. Now that I'm in a place in my life where I can be soft, where I can be gentle, I wish that I didn't have these to make me hard or remind me of that time.
