I haven’t gotten one yet because I want to get into my career first.I want to be sure the choice is something that won’t interfere with that. People say to get it somewhere it won’t be visible, but you never know when it could. For instance, I had a friend who got one on her lower abdomen. You never saw it, but then what was the point I asked her. She said it was just to have one and she liked looking at it while she was in her underclothes. It was a big tattoo of a generic diamond and had the words “bling bling” written on the inside. Now, she was not ghetto, she was very put together and spoke properly, she just liked that style, gold tooth and all. We were really young, but her mother didn’t care at all if she got those things done to herself because her mom WAS ghetto. She landed a career with a reputable firm and had a dinner to attend one night. We went out shopping for a dress for the event. She found a gorgeous, flattering and elegant black dress with a area from the bottom of the breasts that made a unique curving pattern and it’s tail ended at the belly and it was sheer in that area. She tried it on. It fit, it was beautiful on her, and it was her…but her tattoo was visible. And it was less than flattering. She was one of only two black individuals to work at the firm, and the only black female. There would be no help for her if someone saw that, and suddenly the perfectly appropriate and jaw dropping dress would have been horrendously inappropriate, trashy, and “ghetto”. Needless to say, she put it back and settled for a cute plum dress that flared at the knees, but it was not as flattering as the other one, and she admitted she wished she could have gotten it instead. You never know when that tattoo you get will haunt you. My cousin who just recently turned 18 has over 10 already. He dresses thuggish, acts thuggish, and has criminal records. He won’t be going anywhere…and I wish I could say I was jumping to conclusions, but he will have to work way too hard, something he will not do.
