28 and got my first tattoo last week

[biochemist]

I've gone back and forth over the better part of a decade as to whether or not I wanted a tattoo. I think my own indecisiveness at an earlier age kept me from taking the first step. As I've continued growing and becoming more confident in my own understanding of who I am, I've become more comfortable with the idea of getting tattooed. I had a wonderful first experience and look forward to reading about the experiences of others here.

You got a hell of a good first tattoo!

I'm 29, and getting my first tattoo as well. I hear ya. If I would have gotten a tattoo at 18, it would have been some texas hold'em cards, or casino related, and been on my right shoulder...

God am I glad I didn't get one.. Now, I'm pretty sure whatever I get will be just fine .
