Look at them, bunch of hypocrites exactly. Tattos are beautiful. a briliant source of art, and if u read d stories tattos hae helped so many people get through dark moments. To yall hater i recomend watching Miami ink. The show is briliant and reavels the other side of tattos. And besides a lot of igbo women back in the days ( before and a while after d whites came) had tattos. my friends mom has them on her arm. though it is not a pic ot anything. just a bunch of words and markings.

Yea one of my grandmothers had a tattoo with words written across her arms, but then i didn't know what they were called.
People have all kind of mentality that tattoos are for fashion, but it might to some, it’s like my motivation, I look at what I have written on my body especially when am down and I need something to keep me going, it’s more like my strength.

first of all tattos are NOT evil. the fact that u don't like them dosent make them evil. And secondly the proof that tatto was been practiced centureis ago came from Africa. Body decoration has a very long and strong tradition for the African people dating back almost 6000 years to the pharaohs of egypt. http://www.tattoos-by-design.co.uk/history.htmlahaha I feel you there, My was on my thighs, and it only show when I wear short or Mini skirt , but damn mom saw it sha because i was walking around the house butt naked, i totally forgot i had a tattoo loool. what was your moms reaction?? i am thinkin of gettin a tatto on my lower back, just above my ass. but if ma dad finds out, i am pretty sure hell will freeze over.

I could help you do that free of charge even!  thanks for the offer, but i will rather have a pro do it  My nanny when i was a kid had these beautiful tattoos all over her body even her face. It's kindda like what erykah badu had in one of her videos.
my late aunt had them on her hands, and a straight line from her fore head to her chin. it was weird but she looked beautifull with it.
