Tattoos: Should I get tattoos now, or wait until I am done growing?


Question Posted Monday April 15 2013, 10:52 pm

I apologize if this is in the wrong section, was not sure where it could have gone.

17/m


So I have been wanting tattoos for a couple of years now and my 18th birthday is coming up. I want to get them but I don't know what I should get but that is for another time to think about.

I have questions regarding how they will look on me.

I currently am 6'1 or 6'2 and about 155 lbs. I am very skinny since I am so tall and I am thinking I will gain weight in my 20's so I was wondering if I get a tattoo now would it be affected by gaining weight such as fat and muscle?

I don't want them to stretch out and get ruined. I know it is a permanent thing to my body which is why I am asking.

Also I do not know if I am done growing in height. Would gaining another half inch to a couple of inches distort the tattoos in any way?

I am a white male if that info helps, also I kinda am hairy would it be in best interest to get that removed?

Any info helps!

Yes, tattoos do stretch as the skin stretches, so if you gain weight, they may become slightly distorted. Most likely stretching will occur in only one direction, for instance, a circle will become somewhat of an oval.
However, this will vary depending upon the location of the tattoo and how much that area of the body changes.
