I've got a couple of tattoos and you really need to be 100% sure you wanna carry that design / symbol / whatever on your hide for the rest of your life.

Location matters. My tattoos are located in areas that aren't visible when wearing a t-shirt and shorts. Something to keep in mind in the professional world.

I don't know what you have in mind, but the ink I've had done is simple, no shading, and solid black. Even when I'm 80, my tattoos will still be clean and legible, instead of what happens to highly-detailed comic-book quality pieces with lotsa colors: they turn into puke-colored liverspots.
