    My girlfriend loves getting tattoos. Whenever she has enough money she gets one. Her parents don’t like them at all and get wicked pissed when she gets them. She just got done with her first semester at college and did bad (0.5 GPA), and still hasn’t told her parents. I know they’re going to freak because her family is really into academics (fathers a professor at an ivy league school, brother graduated from one of the best universities in the world).

    I’m fine with her getting tattoos, and told her I’d go with her when she got it. I just don’t think now is the right time. If she waited until she got on better terms with her parents I think it would be a better. She already made an appointment but it’s not for week. Is there anyway I could get her to hold off on getting her tattoo for a little longer?

    Also, she’s getting a half sleeve but all the good artists at the shop were book for a couple of months, so isn’t even getting it from a well experienced artist.

    In reality it has nothing to do with anyone else what ,when or by who she gets tattooed. I would however have reservations about her getting it done by anyone less than capable of doing the best work for that particular style. Obviously different artists are better at different styles and I can never understand why people even stay with the same artist if changin styles and you know he’s not as good as someone in the next town or further, loyaly, I suppose, I’ve personally stayed with the same artist for 18years and only 3 times been to see another artist when changing style or art. It’s her own body, if she respects it she will know that it is important to get the right work done, and to wait until its the right time, beit waiting for the right artist to become free, or a better time in her life. Only she will know that, and only she can make that decision.
    She will be mad not to wait for a better artist/specialist artist in whatever style she gets!
    Good luck!!
