So, you’re getting a tattoo? Great news! However, have you considered what body art to get done? Remember that a tattoo is a permanent feature on your body and will stay for the longest time you can imagine. Therefore, you do not want to go wrong with the print on your skin, do you? Here is a list of 10 tattoos you definitely should avoid.
1. Butterflies:
This one is strictly for the girls. So, if you land up getting one of those done, make sure it is on a part of your skin not visible to the rest of the world! Or be prepared to be mocked at for the rest of your life!
2. Superman Symbol:
What are you? A wannabe superhero? Rip off the shirt buttons and wham! The ‘S’ shouts out! Only if you choose to impress the ladies at the fish market, perhaps!

3. The Human Skull:
Erm...unless you intend to attend a Halloween party all year round, the skeletal figure must definitely be avoided! Steer clear of such grim depictions of life and death.

4. Vegetables:
Promoting veganism? No? Then getting fruits and vegetables tattooed on your skin may just fetch you many sniggering looks. Are you prepared for that?
5. Your Sweetheart’s Name:
Are you sure this is forever? The love and the relationship may just start fading away from your heart, but the tattoo shall remain forever. Think twice before getting her name imprinted on thy body.
6. Your Sweetheart’s Face:
What could be worse that your girlfriend’s name on your skin? Her face! Unless you want to freak her out when she begins to get naughty, avoid this one.

7. A Pinup Girl:
Pinup today, hag tomorrow! So, unless you have had some success getting up, close and personal with this mini celebrity, do not get swayed into printing her hot bod on your own!
8. Famous Personality:
Famous and dashing on television, but cartoonish on your arm or chest – that is the likelihood. Moreover, one who is famous today is also likely to fade into oblivion tomorrow.
9. Cartoons:
What are you? Jim Davis? If not, refrain from acting like a nine-year-old and get something more macho tattooed on thyself!

10. Facial Tattoos:
Yes, if you are planning to join a tribe that makes it mandatory to have this tattoo, and a complete ‘no’ if you prefer to remain within the realms of civilization!
Some safe tattoo ideas include getting an animal (dragon, lion or cheetah) printed on your arm or back, an ideogram that is related to your life in some way and strong religious symbols such as the cross or ‘trishul’. Just remember that a tattoo is almost forever, and you don’t want to go wrong with that.
