Hey i'm Chazwick.
(AND, yes, i am female. lol)
I'm from harlow, and i'm 15 years old.

This website has helped me a lot recently getting over nerves for my first tattoo (which i will be getting this week / next week in celebration of my 16th birthday), the tattoo is getting done by a friend of my mums, so i know it's a reliable source and i've seen some of his work, including a tattoo my mum got. I regularly check out the tattoo parlour so i feel comfortable there, and so i can get a glimpse of anything i like.

I'm getting my tattoo done on my bottom inside arm (i think that's the best way to describe the location)... i'm getting something symbolic, not trashy. I understand that a tattoo is a life long commitment and i want something that i wont look back on in ten years, or twenty, and think 'what the hell was i thinking?!'

I'll be getting something small, and it'll be only inked in black. I've seen lots of designs i like - and i'm so excited! When i see the one, i'll just know!

I've researched and wanted a tattoo since i can remember, from a very young age, as my mother has a couple that are very nice.

Despite the fact i hate needles, and it may hurt... a lot, i'm prepared for it, after all, my older sister is a wimp and she got three done! So, it can't be all that bad.

I'm really looking forward to becoming a member of this board, and i'm sure you'll hear a lot more from me.

Very Happy

Hey Chazwick I'm new too.
just a word of caution... think very hard about your first tattoo.

You are after all only young (below the legal age limit) for getting a tattoo.
I had my first one when I was 17 and recently had it covered over as now I'm 29 I was no longer happy with the decision I made all that time ago.

Either way I hope you have a good tattoo experience and I wish you all the best.

For the rest, I'm from South Yorkshire (UK) and I'm a lover of tattoo's is all their glory. I love the story they tell and what they represent.
I'm currently in the process of having my right arm sleeved (not totally but most). It currently sports a large freehand designed tribal tattoo which I'm extending piece by piece. I like black and white tattoo's and although I'm not a gothic person (i.e. I don't dress or act gothic) I love the look and the tattoo's that go with it.

Currently thinking about the large back peice I'm going to have in the future.

All the best.
