Flashy or Trashy? You decide, tww

12/2/2008 10:01:58 PM

not usually a fan, but there are exceptions where it can be tastefully done

12/2/2008 10:02:35 PM

completely trashy

12/2/2008 10:02:36 PM

if you are a badass yes, if you are a skinny punk emo kid then hell no

12/2/2008 10:02:58 PM

couldnt they be both?

12/2/2008 10:03:39 PM

flashy or trashy and it depends on what it is, how it's done and where on the neck.

12/2/2008 10:04:11 PM

I was thinking about getting one....but with the hair cut I got today I cant

12/2/2008 10:04:28 PM

my friend has one that starts at her nape and goes all the way down her back. she likes her hairline high and her dressline low so she gets asked a lot of questions. personally, i wear my hair down a lot so i could cover it up whenever i wanted. hmm.

12/2/2008 10:04:44 PM

usually bad

there are some exceptions

12/2/2008 10:04:58 PM

depends on the tattoo and placement

it's not like the neck is the lower back, where simply saying the body part gives enough information to gauge where it'd be placed.

'neck' could be
- on the adam's apple
- the side, behind the ear
- nape of the neck
- base of the neck
- near the jugular

12/2/2008 10:05:03 PM

well, lets assume the front of the structure connecting your head to your shoulders is called the throat. so i`m talking about the region from ear to ear, extending to the shoulder, just on the dorsal side.

12/2/2008 10:07:07 PM

trashy.

No they can't. It doesn't work both ways

12/2/2008 10:10:49 PM

I wanted to get "Simul iustus et peccator" tattooed on the nape of my neck...right on the hairline....cause I figured I'd have it covered up all the time....but my hair is cut so short in the back right now that it wouldn't....I need to find another spot to put it

12/2/2008 10:11:11 PM

these tattoos are boring, but this is the placement i am considering






[Edited on December 2, 2008 at 10:12 PM. Reason : well, your hairline is a lot less permanent than a tattoo. think about that ]

12/2/2008 10:11:49 PM

i love that placement honestly

12/2/2008 10:13:24 PM

I intend to get a giraffe with a few blades of grass immediately behind my ear.

That will join the cotton boll right at my hairline, center of my neck.

[Edited on December 2, 2008 at 10:13 PM. Reason : FYI, it'll hurt like hell]

12/2/2008 10:13:46 PM

I'm also thinking that I have no clue where my hair line will be when I'm 60 and a conservative grandmother...I don't want that....maybe I'll do it on my side

12/2/2008 10:14:00 PM

if you want to do it, do it.

don't let the closed-minded people on tww decide for you.

12/2/2008 10:14:05 PM

that second one is awesome.... but i like tats easy on the color...
i'm thinking about getting one

12/2/2008 10:15:51 PM

its gonna be a fleur de lys. I`m still deciding the details


I kind of want to do something on the other side that references NC and try to make it vaguely symmetrical. maybe a venus fly trap. ideas?

12/2/2008 10:17:25 PM

bones hanging from a tree with an overgrown field in the background

12/2/2008 10:19:03 PM

nah, that one is all you. how about a full back masterpiece

12/2/2008 10:20:34 PM

12/2/2008 11:18:31 PM

guys: flashy
girls: trashy

my friend has a neck tattoo of her name. guess she needs to remind the guys of her name during suprise buttsex.

12/3/2008 2:37:51 AM

so I have one on the back of my neck...prob most would consider trashy, but I love it. I would just be prepared for pain in that area that you want yours. I want one there but I am too chicken to get it there. I think that is a very feminine and beautiful spot.

12/3/2008 8:44:32 AM

my ex has one of two horseshoes on the back of her neck.

I dont like it, but she loves it...I dunno it may grow on me...but as of now, im not a fan.


Trashy

12/3/2008 8:51:19 AM

brittany spears already had one and had it removed - that must say something.

12/3/2008 9:20:37 AM

i always laff at people that think tattoos are trashy

oh no, self expression they must be trashy....

you people crack me the fuck up sometimes .... im so glad im not as boring as some of you closed minded people

i say go for it.

12/3/2008 9:35:15 AM

I don't have any problems with tattoos on folks as long as it's not covering significant percentages of the body. That being said, I'd never get one on myself.

Since when does not agreeing with something make you closed-minded?

12/3/2008 9:40:39 AM

people shouldnt call others trashy just b/c they have tattoos
or have a tattoo in a certain place

that to me is closed minded.

self expression and body decor has been around since man first walked the earth.

just b/c you dont like it doesnt give you any rights to call anyone trashy

12/3/2008 9:44:17 AM

since gunzz said it did

12/3/2008 9:44:34 AM

oic.

I def. never called it trashy, so I'm good.

12/3/2008 9:45:07 AM

i want this

why does it bother you? this thread is about OUR OPINIONS on something. we have EVERY RIGHT to express our opinions on a type of body art.


I am a professional and to me it looks trashy.

12/3/2008 9:56:03 AM

^same. Jesus gunzz, it's an opinion, and it's opposite of yours. It's not close minded, it's just poor aesthetics, IMO.

12/3/2008 9:58:50 AM

The girl who works next door has one and I happen to find her extremely attractive. Not that that helps but just thought Id share

"- the side, behind the ear"

my gf wants a tiny one there, like GREEN JAY's pics above.

12/3/2008 10:04:17 AM

you have your opinions and i understand that so my opinion of anyone thinking it is trashy is an idiotic
closed minded mouth breather.


[Edited on December 3, 2008 at 11:10 AM. Reason : which most of you are. ]

12/3/2008 11:09:48 AM

in general: trashy

12/3/2008 11:11:10 AM

i knew i recognized those in that earlier pictures

thats the girl from phoenix tattoo, heres are well done, i dont mind those, behind the ear is workable

12/3/2008 11:12:52 AM

I was very seriously considering one on the nape of my neck for a while. I am very glad I didn't do it.

12/3/2008 11:13:42 AM

I have one on the back of my neck... can't see it though bc I have long hair.

I don't think it's trashy... and I don't consider myself trashy. So, I say go for it. Some people may not like it but who cares. It's not about them anyways.

[Edited on December 3, 2008 at 11:19 AM. Reason : ...]

12/3/2008 11:18:44 AM

I recommend not having any visible tattoo other than say the side of your bicep or or ankle if you are a female, if you plan on getting a good job.

12/3/2008 11:22:36 AM

I can agree with that. I like 'hidden' tattoos.

12/3/2008 11:25:22 AM

^has anyone ever told you that you exude sexiness? I have never met you but just looking at your pics in your gallery makes me think "wowy wow wow"

12/3/2008 11:28:18 AM

^^ I have a strategically placed tat
