Pic related, im tempted to get the Angelic Pretty logo tattooed in white ink, not sure where yet, or how practical it would rly be considering the complications associated with white ink.

I don't hate the idea of lolita print themed tattoos, but I really think you should reconsider getting a tattoo of the actual brand logo! You may really like the brand and their style right now, but what happens in a couple years when they take a direction you really don't care for? Or pick up some stigma or implications down the line? Even if you end up loving them forever, it's still a little tacky, unless you alter the design in some way.

I mean, I do like the idea a bit too, but I would wait at least five more years before committing to a brand logo tattoo! Just my two cents, though.

[Anonymous No.7934873]

Honestly, I feel like most prints aren't well suited to be used as tattoos without heavy modification or going for a full-sleeve sort of thing, but I do love the idea of just having one of the little motifs from Holy Lantern on the back of the neck or upper back or something. Little bat-winged candelabra with a couple stars on either side. Way cute.

Alternately, Imai Kira drawings in lieu of pinups.

>Lolita themed tattoos y/n?
For me? No. For you? If you want to.

>What print/design would make a good tattoo?
Something small that doesn't involve the brand logo at all. Maybe one of the doughnuts from Melty Cream Doughnut with a few smaller designs around to frame and or "anchor" it, but I don't think getting one of the unicorns of horses from any of the Carnival prints.
>mfw someone already did that a while ago and posted it all over.
It looked terrible.

>Would a lolita themed tattoo ever be acceptable in a lolita coordinate?
I doubt it. Any place where someone would normally get a tattoo (upper arm, back, thighs, etc) is usually covered in lolita. I guess if you get one on the wrist you can kinda show it, but I doubt many people would think it part of the actual outfit.

>Would you ever consider getting one?
Nah, I'm good.

/r/'ing the picture of the girl with the off-color AP tattoo.

[Anonymous No.7934925]

I wouldn't get a brand name on me, even lolita brands.
>not a billboard

I'm modeling a large tattoo off of Gardenberries; it needs modification to actually suit a tattoo but it will be really cute when it's done.

Most prints may be ok as templates to model a design from but they won't necessarily transfer well to a tattoo.

Also, white ink will turn brown over time and unless you're super pale, will hardly even be visible.

[Anonymous No.7934928]

Its fucking stupid and tacky as fuck. You wouldnt get a CHANEL logo tattoo, would you? The concept is similar to why stylish/ classy people avoid purchasing anything that resembles a obnoxious advertisement for the brand.

[Anonymous No.7934957]

I think a brand logo is a bad idea, but taking a part of a print you like and altering it to suit a tattoo design seems fine. I know lolitas are known for being anti-tattoo, but I'm not getting the reason for calling the OP a retard for asking opinions on it. If she was a retard she would have gone out, got it, then spammed it everywhere expecting asspats.

[Anonymous No.7934965]

I have the perfume bottle cameo from cinema doll on my forearm. Love it to bits.

[Anonymous No.7935611]

I think a lot of the prints inside of a cameo can look good as a tattoo like >>7935501 said they have. I thought about getting one of the Melty Mermaid Princess cameos before.

Logos (for anything, not just lolita) on the other hand I think are tacky.

I wouldn't mind having some motifs on this prints on my ankle, these are cute...

[Anonymous No.7935691]

I don't have a lolita style tattoo, but I'm a lolita with a Harry Potter tattoo.
It's a small deathly hallows on the inside of my wrist, it's simple and tasteful.
Harry Potter was/is a large part of my life, especially when I was growing up. Helped me through hard times.
It's something I feel I won't ever regret getting, or get sick of. Perhaps I might one day.

[Anonymous No.7935704]

The most I'd get is probably a small chain of details around an ankle, things like >>7934873 mentioned, or maybe just a couple in easily hidden places. Maybe a cameo like other girls have mentioned. Certainly not a brand logo because I know my tastes in clothing change frequently enough for that to be a bad idea, but to each their own, I guess.

[Anonymous No.7935967]

I have one tattoo and its not lolita, but I wish it was. I hate explaining what the tattoo is to people because I got it when I was a teenager and it doesn't have a lot of meaning to me. I'm considering getting a cover up tattoo over top of it of a crown because I am absolutely obsessed with crown prints.

I'm going to give it another year or two before I decide though, to make sure its not just a phase.

The shape of the cup is a little off, at the bottom .
Cherry on top shading isn't the best but not bad.
The girls face has no details so it looks she has bags under her eyes and not that Angelic pretty style art you were going for. However, I can tell who she is.
Good parts:
>shading on the cup.
>skirt of the dress's line work.
>Very 3D feel and good use of space.
>Love how deep he went in with the colors.

the deep colors well be good in not keeping it from fading to much.

I was seriously considering getting the deathly hallows there. I wanted the Dark Mark but my boyfriend said that'd be too edgy. He's probably right.

I also want a little Totoro on my hip./

[Anonymous No.7936488]

>>7936459
The Dark Mark is the wizard equivalent of the swastika. So yeah.

And anyway you'd just lump yourself in with the "2edgy4u" crowd.

I don't know, I kind of want to get a Harry Potter or MAYBE a Homestuck tattoo, but there's a lot of deathly hollows out there so IDK.

I'd like to get pic related on my back (left side, back view of where my actual heart would be) but I've heard that solid colours which aren't black bleed something awful.

I'd also love one of those water colour tattoos, like a fox or something, but they're still fairly new and I want to see how they age.

[Anonymous No.7936490]

good god do not get a homestuck tattoo

[Anonymous No.7936491]

>>7936490
The heart is the one I'd get in that case. It's not going to happen for at least a few years, but some day maybe.

A friend and I were actually toying with the idea of a sleeve, nothing we'd get ourselves but it'd be cool to see. With lord english at the shoulder and then maybe toying with the cairo overcoat and characters like the felt or team Doc or the carpacians.
Lord English is a pretty good motive anyway, huge green skullmonster with cueballs for eyes.

I've entertained the idea of getting Meta's swans. Cute enough to be normal without being an in-your-face brand logo.

>Homestuck
I have a Yugioh tattoo and even I know this is a bad idea. Sure there's a lot of Deathly Hallows tattoos out there (my only other tattoo is one) but it's a series that's over 15 years old and something that shaped so many childhoods, I don't think you can pick a good tattoo idea from it that hasn't already been inked onto hundreds of thousands of people.
Homestuck's only been going for 5 years any way, even if you're set on this, wait a few years before getting it to be certain that you wont fall out of love.
Sorry for continuing the fandom tattoo discussion.

>Lolita themed tattoos y/n?
They can be cute if done well. Another person who's not a fan of bran logos though
>What print/design would make a good tattoo?
I'd love to see stuff based off more gothic designs but a lot of prints from any subset of lolita could work.
>Would a lolita themed tattoo ever be acceptable in a lolita coordinate?
I don't view tattoos as part of coords as they aren't something someone puts on specifically to match this JSK and that blouse.
>Would you ever consider getting one?
Cosplayer, not a lolita (yet) so no. I only get tattoos from things that have significantly shaped or changed my life so even if I get into lolita I can't see anything meeting my personal criteria for having it permanently put on me.

You can't just touch it up either, as you can't use light ink over dark in that way so every time you touch up your white ink tattoo it'll just get darker.

As someone who has a concept of permanency, getting a pretty lolita style tattoo is about 8,00000x better than getting a shitty video game tattoo. Like, you might hate that video game next year, but if the tattoo is aesthetically pleasing (example, a chandelier from the image above your post) it will always look okay.

I have a video game tattoo, even planning a few more from a particular game in the series, but those games are about twenty-two years old, with the ones I'm getting art from being ten.

I feel like people should really wait to get a tattoo from a video game (or lolita, in this case), at least a few years, just because that initial, "Wow, I love this so much, this is the best thing I've ever seen," will fade, and if you've lost your enthusiasm, then you're just stuck with a tattoo from some game/dress you don't give a fuck about anymore.
