I'm getting a tat on my ankle/calf this summer. Totally excited, but also terrified. Good luck, and tell me how your's goes Nyla.

I have tattoos on my right arm from my should down to my wrist. I'll try to get a digital camera and share. I really love my forearm one which is a mix 2-d and 3-d gears/cogs.

Henna is your friend!

Thats true, if you want to see if you'll like a tattoo. Henna it on and see if you can put up with it till it fades away. Since henna lasts for so damn long.

I've thought about henna? How dark can you get it? I've always seen it on fair skinned folks.

Henna started in India on very dark skinned people. Ethopia women put on henna all over thier body for their wedding.. I'll see if I can find some pics.

Everything you wanted to know about henna but were afraid to ask...

Henna's color is based on the make up of your skin, so the darker your skin the darker the henna will be.
