Today, I went to get my first tattoo. When I told the man that I wanted Tinkerbell on my lower back area. He snorted and told me that I was way too old to have Tinkerbell on me, and that Disney characters are only cute on people 35 and younger. I'm 23. FML

I don't know, we don't know where you're getting it. I actually think it would be cute on your shoulder blade even though I'm not a fan of tinkerbell. They don't look "bad" unless you're very old and your skin is really sagging. Then everyone with tattoos is going to look that way no matter how old they are. Tinkerbell is no more stupid than a winged horse, a butterfly, or flowers. I guess the tattoo artist just might have a problem with "Cute" tattoos anyway on anyone, or the disney ones. It did sound like he said you were older than you were, I think that was your true fyl there. I wouldn't be giving him your business and I would discourage others from doing that either. Yeah, he can be honest with you and discuss pros/cons but you can do that without being rude.

oops, somehow missed that you did say "lower back" Ah well. Anyway, he should have been more polite in his opinion but it makes sense to warn customers about sagging areas and what could happen to the body over time. That said, the lower back usually doesn't sag and most people don't get severe back-fat there. Whatever ,you can get a tinkerbell tattoo there. Hell, I have shamrocks and a snowflake on my abs and I'm getting a devil/angel on each shoulder blade. It's your body

If that bastard had been rude to me like this, I would have totally the tattoo artist! The whole tattoo artist!

Hello.. even if you are only 23 now, you are going to still have it at 35 and beyond. The tattoo artist was wrong though, Tinkerbell tattoos look horrible on anybody of any age. They scream tacky and tasteless. I am a fan of tattoos but wow, both a tramp stamp and a tinkerbell, why not get white trash tattooed on your forehead. Also, a tattoo artist has every right to refuse to do a tattoo they think is tacky/ugly etc. Any tattoo they do is a walking advertisement and I sure as hell would not want to advertise that. If they are good artists they can make plenty of money doing quality work and not crap like this.

I wish tbe tattoo artist told me thus advice when I was 22 and got my crumby tat of Tinkerbell on my lower back. Trust me hes correct.

she's so dumb she probably still had the guy do the tatt!

while i am a huge tattoo enthusiast, (i have 4) seriously, animated character/fairy/tramstamp combo? not one of these elements is ok. but all at once?! (granted on rare occasions fairies can be cool but generally they are stupid) omg i just bet this chick is a fat hilbilly. this screams white trash. most tattooists wont refuse you, they'll let you look stupid. you should be gratefull this one has some integrity and stopped you from shaming yourself. find a highly recommended tattooist and work with them to find something that is personal to you but also SUITABLE!!!

I just realized, with the placement of the tattoo it'd look like she had a Tinkerbell tramp stamp. Go for it.

OP: tinkerbell huh? well its ok if you're a lesbian. nobody will look back there. but if you're into guys, i'd suggest putting big boobs on her. give him something to look at while he's doggystyling you.
