Be warned though, it stings quite a bit. [ lauragracey1's advice column | Ask lauragracey1 A Question ]
rainhorse68 answered Wednesday August 20 2014, 10:54 pm: I wouldn't think it was exactly common for a girl of twelve to want one. And I can see why it might seem suspect to many people, since it kind of implies an intent to show the look off to guys. I suppose if she wants one purely for herself, because it's a look she aspires to maybe, then I can't see any real harm in it. As far as making a statement (doing something a bit 'out there') it's probably better than a tattoo from some shady 'studio' who don't check ages (which she's stuck with for life...a wax is short-lived). She might get some dodgy comments if same-aged friends notice (school sports, swimming etc?) since she'll probably be the only one of the gang who's had one. I'd say by and large that she'd have to accept that many adults and same-age friends might not think it was 'good'. Personal view? Much like having lots of piercings or dying your hair bizarre colours (reversible), and less 'bad' than tatts (which you might well regret but can't do a thing about undoing invisibly). Fair?
