I tried to search for a previous thread as I'm sure one exists but it appears all these words are too short or too common to search for!

What is the general opinion on behind the ear tattoos?

Do they have the same stigma as face/head tattoos?

I see a lot of office type girls with them, would that be because they could hide them with their hair if they need? Or because they are already petite? Is it different if a guy that has a lot of other tattoos and a shaved head gets one? Does it depend on the actual tattoo, on the way the individual carries themselves? how they dress to compliment it etc?

My girlfriend has one tattoo and it's behind her ear. It's just roman numerals, her favorite act and scene from Hamlet, III.IV I think. Unfortunately, she says she regrets it, she got it on a whim when she was like 19 and now tries to keep it hidden for the most part. I hardly ever even see it honestly.

One of the last spots I'll consider having done. Apart from anything else, it's a tiny space so doesn't really lend itself to the kind of tattoos I'm interested in getting at the moment, and even once I have all the big bits done there'll be plenty of more interesting little spots for filler.

It does seem to be the spot of choice for a lot of girls first tattoo - I guess because it's kind of visible but easily hidden.

I have one behind my ear, its a heart. I been asked if I got it for an ex or something, but that's definitely not the reason. Hearts symbolize love, & I'm all about it.

I think it really depends on the tattoo. Something simple would be cute. What are you planning on getting done?

      big Problem after tattooing.

      By Hogrider · Posted

      First let me say I've never seen exactly that related to tattoos. Second, I am NOT a doctor, so take any advice with a grain of salt and follow it at your own risk. I do have something like that which appears on my face from time to time. After multiple visits to the dermatologist, which didn't fix it, I finally came up with my own treatment. Whenever it flairs up, I just wipe the area down with plain rubbing alcohol three or four times a day to keep it dry. That usually works within a couple of days. Again, I'm not a doctor, but I don't think it would hurt anything for you to try that. Good Luck.

      big Problem after tattooing.

      By zomno · Posted

      Hey, I have a serious problem! I got a tattoo in Manila 4 weeks ago. The artist is very well known and is one of the most renowed. 2 day after tattooing, small pimples began to form on my thight an many at the tattoo. 3 days later i had fever at night (just at night). After that, the pimpels began to spread very quickly all over the body. (back stomach etc..) I have now been to 3 doctors and everyone is at a loss. The blood work is fine and with no anomalies. Antibiotic ointment and cortisone ointment did not help. Xyzall allergy tablets did not help either. When i took cortisone tablets, 90% of the pimpels disappeared on the tattoo, but not on the other parts of the body. Now that I´am no longer taking cortisone, the pimpels on the tattoo are starting to grow back again very quick. On the other parts of the skin , the pimpels are sometimes lighter and sometimes stronger. This can be change hourly. They don´t hurt and hardy lever itch. Of course I´am afraid of a tattoo allergie. Has anyone already had this problem ? Does anyone know what that could be ? I add photos: 1) Photo directly after tattooing. 2) 2 Photos with the pimpels after a week 3) After 3 weeks while taking cortisone. 4) Photo of the body on the left.
