Do you have any snake tattoos yet? I like the simple snake ones. Pinterest is a great place to find tattoo ideas.

If you really like it you should go with the jellyfish The price usually depends on the artist. The place I went to usually starts at $50 but since I was there from 3 pm to 3 am ( that was a long day lol) they gave me a discount.

the bad part is the people im going with (my grandma, my aunt, and my cousin) have 0 clue where they want to go and arent going to know til the day of (monday) and i had no intentions on getting one, but my grandma offered to pay but she said “as long as its not too expensive” but i have no clue what her limit is lol

Is there any way you could find out where they want to go? Or do a google search and suggest some places with good reviews? If you can find out about the place by Monday you could probably email someone from the shop and possibly get a quote on the Jellyfish.

For your first tattoo make sure you REALLY know what you want, make sure that is really where you want it (while people are more open about tatts now they still will stare so be ready for that and make sure you can handle that) make sure you find a really GREAT artist, price should be secondary remember this is something you will have for the rest of your life, don't make the mistake to go cheap and regret it within weeks.

I have a great artist and he does a lot of cover up, he often fixes ugly tattoos that have just been done by other local artists, which means those people cheap tatts turn into expensive tatts anyway so keep that in mind.

theres one place they want to go, but their style is super classical and i dont know if theyd be able to do the jelly fish or how theyd do on it, so i might just wait.

i know 100% that i want something on my wrist or my forearm, everyone keeps recommending calf but i dont think thatd look that good on me. initially i wanted a small symbol of sorts on my wrist but ive heard its on of the most painful spots! also i agree, price should be secondary, but im not the one paying, but if im not able to get what i want im not going to get anything, no point in settling and being sad about it

Very true. I got my tattoo on my ankle (it's a small crescent moon) where it can easily be hidden when I wear shoes. This is because I don't know what jobs I'll have in the future and I don't want peoples opinions to get in the way of a future career.
