my first tattoo
So I'm really wanting a tattoo. I want it to be something small and classy that can't be seen if i'm wearing clothes. Also something very feminine. I'd like it to be something deep and meaningful that's kinda classic so i wont regret getting it in like 30 years. I know it's hard to give me good advice when you don't know me but anything is appreciated. Pictures would be nice too :)

I got my first in December. It says "Live Laugh Love" in a font called scriptina which is a really thin swirly lettering and it really came out gorgeous. I got it because for my sweet 16 my best friend got me a tiny necklace with that on it and one day when I was just at the lowest of low (break-up, bad grades in school, etc) I looked at the necklace and decided that these are the words I want to live my life by. Live life to the fullest. Laugh at the mishaps. Love without fear. And it pulled me out of my rut.
I just tried finding the picture I based it off of online and I can't after looking through over 40 pages of a google search.
Basically you have to find something that isn't going to change in your life. And no not every tattoo needs to mean something but if someone asks "oh what'd you get that one for?" and you say "i dont know" well...its just better if theres a story. I came up with my idea when I was 16, found the style I wanted when I was 17, and got it done when I was 18.
If you find something you like whether you draw it or find a picture somewhere, hang it on your wall to let it grow on you.

You can take any symbol or word meaningful to you and get it small. Avoid hearts, peace signs, and stars because their over done and can be tacky. Look in your favorite books for quotes that strike you, or maybe a bible verse if your religious. You could do a phrase in a different language (like if your french, translate something into french). What I really like is white ink tattoos. They are subtle and less noticeable but still very beautiful. Do research and find something you love. You can go to the tattoo place and have them put the stencil on you and you can walk around with it to see if you like it.
Good luck,
