Hey guys I came across this forum today and it looked great so I decided to join! I've just turned 18 and I'm from Adelaide, South Australia. I got my first tattoo when I was 17 in Miami by a guy named Kiki at a shop called Tattoos by Lou in South Beach. I got a realistic lion done on my upper right arm and am thrilled with it! While I'm here if you guys have any suggestions as to what I can add to it that would be great! I want to go up onto my shoulder and upper chest and back not down my arm any further. thanks guys and I'm looking forward to joining this community!

I got my first tattoo a few months ago while on holiday in America. I was 17 at the time and had heard that law required you to be 18 to get one. When we got to Miami a guy said I could get one with my parents permission. I thought it was important, as this was my first tattoo, to get a tattoo which meant something to me. I went with a lion for what it symbolises and went pretty big, 8 hours in one sitting. None of my friends or family have tattoos and were all a bit surprised to see me get one. They asked the usual questions like "won't you regret it?" and "how do you plan on getting a job with that?" (im studying to go into corporate business). I just shrugged those questions off because none of that concerned me. If you get a tattoo which means something to you, you will never regret it and you are getting it for yourself not others.
