I think Dallas wnats to show himself while others choose not to, I approve of this move and face it he wont be working a 9-5 job anytime soon. But that is why I am waiting to get a ll tatted up to see if things work out for me. As people are harsh and won't hire you based on something they dont understand.

I totally agree. Unfortunately with the work i plan to get into tattoos are a no no. I've got three so far two on my ankles one on my hip and next thursday I'm getting my forth one which is starting up my hip and onto my back on the right and up onto my mid back. So I plan to have a lot just hide them well.

Yeah, I'm going into Law so same goes for me but I think inside of forearms and upper arms and back may be an option.

@Nancy - What are your tattoos of?

My first tattoo is a phoenix I drew on my left hip. The second one I got was leaves blowing, which I also drew, in the wind up my ankle. The third tattoo I've got ahah is the city cd cover for sometimes. However, instead of city and colour-sometimes I got FAMILY & MUSIC on the top banner and it's blank on the bottom one until me and my friends, Ricky and Kat, decide what matching tat we want. Then the next tattoo I'm getting, i.e. this Thursday, is daisies and leaves blowing in the wind up from my right hip onto my side and up onto my mid/upper back on the right. = )

All my tats are very personal to me. The phoenix is kind of my personal mascot for myself. Rise from ashes. No matter what life puts you through be strong. I plan to get rise form ashes later as well. I had a rough childhood.

My leaves are about learning to move on after a three year relationship.

The city tattoo was my salute to the past year of my life. City got me through some tough times when I didn't wanna get up in the morning. I had the best and worst year of my life. The person I thought I'd spent the rest of my life with was gone. But I met the best friends I've ever had, I went off to uni and started my life over. Had some of the best times in my life. and I realized how important family,music and friends really are and the tat was a salute to all that.

The daisies are a tribute to my grandmother whom I only met once. She was very sick and kept saying that she was only going to keep fighting it until she met me. My parents had trouble, my mom couldn't carry to term. I had seven brothers who all passed premature(7 months) or died at birth. I was born after 6 and 3/4 months. My mom flew to poland so my grandmother could see me and then right after we left she passed. She had this ring made for me, and I just always lacked knowing her. Her favorite flowers are daisies so this tattoo is my way of being close to her. =)

I also plan to get the finish strong logo on my upper back.

Would love to see some pictures. I think it's awesome that all of your tats have some meaning behind them, too many people just have some random image stuck on them just to "look cool" or whatever. I'm thinking about getting an empty vine with 5 branches coming off the stem on the inside of my left forearm; it represents the 6 points I hope to have in my life (birth, leaving home, getting married, having kids, retiring and dying). Won't be getting anything until I'm in Uni though, my parents would go spare, but I hope to remedy their anger when they do find out by getting some sort of tribute to both of them eventually.

P.S. I think Dallas' knuckle tattoos are pretty awesome. Most people have Love on one and Hate on the other, his version's pretty cool. I think Flea from the Chili's has Love on one and Love on the other as well, think thats pretty good too.

I've only got one at the base of my neck. I like it there. I can show it off or hide it.

Like the tats nancy, artwork and colour on the first photo is very true to the C&C album sleeve.
