You know what they say - the difference between people with tattoos and people without tattoos is that tattooed people don't care whether or not you have a tattoo!
Having a real tattoo applied to your own skin can be an incredible experience. I have a number of tattoos myself and I don't regret any of them. I think part of the reason for that was that before I had Nick from "Tatooz 'R Us" ink me, I made very sure that I was happy with the design and location of my potential tats.
I'll never forget a great piece of advice I was given when I told my friends about my plans for a new tattoo. I was a cleanskin at the time, and a good friend gave me this advice. He said: "Before you get a tattoo, you should get a hold of the design and make sure you're happy with it. Once you've done that, wait six months and make sure at the end of that time it's still something you want to have on your body permanently".
Great advice - and something I tell anyone who asks me about my tatts. Make sure you like the design. Henna tattoo designs might be something to consider. There are many artists who will use henna to apply a potential tattoo before you take the plunge for real.
Some people will be gung-ho and rush into getting tattooed, select a piece of flash artwork from the wall of the nearest studio and slap their money down. I don't have any statistics, but I'll bet that the majority of them are kicking themselves 12 months later when they look in the mirror.
Henna tattoo designs might just be the compromise you're looking for - they're permanent enough that you'll get a feel for having something on your skin 24/7 - at least for a few days. They'll go away eventually, so you're not stuck with them if you decide your design sucks, or you're not happy with the positioning.
If you're considering getting tattooed, try henna. Tattoo designs are wide and varied. Check out this great site for some inspiration.

It may be a great site but you can't get anywhere without paying for it.
