More seriously though, I don’t really regret any of mine. Like I said in another comment on this post, my attitude towards tattoos is that I know the designs might not look perfect to me forever, and on a purely “technical” level even with touchups old tattoos do tend to look, well, old. So, for me, it’s not about getting the perfect piece that I’ll love forever, but getting something that’s interesting or important or whatever to me right now, and which will serve as a marker or reminder of this period in my life and the context in which I got it.
So do I have tattoos that I wouldn’t get now? Yes, absolutely, but there’s no regret there – I was a “different me” when I got them, and they tell me a story about the time they’re from and who I was at that point (and who I still am in a way)
NO RAGRETS.
