I'm one of those who probably shouldn't answer. I agree with that AP515 said above... see a great looking woman then see graffiti... nah. But, it IS your body and you can do what you want. So then my only issue becomes, are you absolutely certain that what you want now is what you want for the rest of your life.
My sister (who is a very good looking woman!) got several tattoos when she was in her early 30s. So first, not a kid anymore so maybe a better... more well thought out decision perhaps, than someone younger getting them to be cool and not thinking long term. She later gets into banking and becomes a successful branch manager of a bank. She immediately have to buy some new cloths to "hide" the tattoo (on her upper arm). After about 5 years on the business and never being able to wear a sleeveless dress, blouse or outfit of any kind, she started the process of having them removed, which cost more than getting them done did.
I'm going to be real honest here. I know very successful people that have them. But in some business environments, if you go in for an interview with ink showing, you won't get the job. Nobody will SAY that, but it's true. So, there is more involved than whether or not you like them or think it's cool. In some careers it won't ever matter. I some, it will.
