Been thinking about getting a tattoo for ages because I really want to have something thats a part of me and will be with me forever... When thinking about it I now know that I want to be able to cover it, I don't want it on my arms or hands, I want to be able to see it and I don't want it on my neck or face. I'm not sure where to have it (as you can tell) and I don't know what tattoo to have... I was thinking sillouttes of birds on my foot? Suggestions please! :D (link)

Nobody will tattoo the neck or face of anyone who doesn't have a ton of body art or modifications already. That's pretty much a universal rule at shops I've entered.
One thing you have to be aware of is your own pain tolerance and lack thereof. If you are jumpy to begin with and can't take much if it hurts than it's wrong for you. Some areas of the body hurt more for some people than for others.
Typically most artists have told me barbed wire tattoos hurt and that the easiest place to tolerate having it done is anything from your shoulder to your elbow on your arm. Keep the design small for a first tattoo.
Tell the artist at the tattoo place that you want birds and a silhouette but wanted something unique to go with it. Pound out some ideas and have them draw you something based on that to see if you like it. I don't know if a foot or ankle tattoo hurts or not but someone here is bound to tell you.
Take your time though in doing this as you want the right shop, artist, comfort level and a firmer idea of what you want as yes it will be with you forever.
