I'm thinking about getting an inner bottom lip tattoo. Anyone here have one? |

The tissue is so spongy in the lip that they are pretty quickly reduced to nothing more than illegible blobs. I've seen a few people with them, and a few years after getting them, they tend to look like they have scurvy!

Don't get me wrong, I like tasteful body mods, but this...

The whole inner lip tattoo thing is one of the dumbest ideas I have heard in a while. It will be very painful. No one will be able to see it. It will look stupid. And you're going to spend perfectly good money on that? This is coming from a guy with a tattoo.
Of course all of this is IMO/YMMV. It's your body and your dough so do what makes you happy.

They're just jokes most of the time, and they're not really supposed to be a lifelong investment in something, the way a full sleeve is. Plus, they're always pretty small, so they're fairly cheap.
I thought the moustache was hilarious. |

Given a year, I bet they are just blobs now.
(should have mentioned in original reply, I have tattoos aswell, so it isnt like im against the entire thing).

Maybe it was my choice of wording?  |

She said it was a bitch to get, took a long time to heal, and since she kept tounging it while it was healing, it was almost completely faded after about 6 months. You can barely make it out now, just looks like a faint blob. |

They never found out about it.
