My God she's not forcing anyone to have a tattoo. She's just saying some tips if you really want one

"maybe don't rush it, think it through" sign in the back say tattoo roulette

#10!!! Having a good meal and a snack during breaks really helped me. The body reacts to a tattoo needle like it's being attacked; therefore you're going to burn calories as your heart rate increases. Can't stress this one enough!

Ok I don't give a shit what anyone says, tattoos are awesome.

Everyone should stop hating on this sort of content. As someone who's into menswear and streetwear, and has a full sleeve, I think its important take these sort of things into consideration. We should appreciate this channel expanding their content, and it's a shame how conservatively many of Ashley's followers think about personal style and self expression - If you don't want a tattoo, don't get one.

I have always wanted a tattoo, but it was drilled into me when I was little how permanent it was and was discouraged against ever getting one. I’m at the point in my life where I just want beauty in whatever way I can get it. Sometimes overthinking it can be just as harmful as being impulsive.

if you’re worried about people judging you for your tattoo, people are always gonna judge you, what matters is if you’re gonna let that get to you or not so just get the tattoo you want

My mom passed away on May 31, 2020. She went through alot of pain the last 6 months of her life. She said I was her lion because I fought with her every step of the way. She never wanted me to have a tattoo so I respected her. Now I want something symbolic in my forearm (perhaps a lion head with crown tattoo) and I WANT to feel the pain as a sort of “rite of passage”. Two kinds of pain (from the Equalizer movie).. pain that hurts and pain that alters. Pain that alters represents a painful difficult event or process that helps you become better. In this case, the pain is worth it.

Wowwww I've never heard of this channel before, but found it looking for first tattoo tips. What a terribly judgmental and unkind community of subscribers. I'm in awe of how many rude comments there are.

Getting my first next week. Wish me luck

[Phoenix_flame]

The more I think about it now the more I realize that my idea fro my first tattoo is basically perfect. It's something that is important to me and I don't think there's any reason that I would regret it.

Does your first tattoo need to have a meaning? Personally I don’t think a tattoo needs a meaning you just need to like the image.

When you’re impulsive af and you’re getting you’re first tat in a week

[saraschneider]

I am so excited for my first tattoo and I am glad my parents support me in this decision. I am still a little bit unsure because I want it behind my ear/ a little bit over my neck and I heard it hurts a lot in this place. Still I know for sure I want it and this video really helped me to stay calm, so thank you guys!

I wouldn't trust someone that doesn't have tattoos to tattoo me

[Katxo]

I'm getting my first tattoo next week and have literally thought about it for years lmao finally doing it

[selenaforever]

My husband and I each have a tattoo, not the same one or each other's name or anything but something that really meant to each of us, when I see my husband tat, my heart just melts, I'm filled with joy and love about it because it means soo much to him and mine he tells me that it just brings him to tears when he thinks about how happy it makes me, like when I look down on it and the huge smile takes his breathe away. Our tats means soo much to the both of us and I couldn't be more happy about what we share. My dad was against it but I over 18 and it's my body. So yeah that what I told him.

Just subscribed. Watched your interview on Gentalman's Gazette. Great video. A retired sailor with 30+ years in the Navy and zero Tattoos. Been to many a parlor around the world, watched many friends get tattoo's, just not for me. That said, I do want to mention that really thinking about getting your first is very very important. Twelve years ago I lost my wife, thought about a memorial tattoo at the time. I asked several of my tattooed friends, all of them said wait, my best friend said wait five years, if you still feel the need then get one. I didn't have to wait those five. Life events shortened that period. I met my current wife about a year later. So glad I didn't get that tattoo.
