Tattoo Trends & My First Tat


The most popular tattoo trends range from tribal tats to stars and butterflies. I have a lily with stars and swirls on my back. I did not choose my tattoo solely based upon the fact that everyone from Rihanna to Chris Brown has stars tatted all over them. Instead, I chose the lily as a representation of my evolution from a young adult into a woman (I was turning 21). I got the tat at Tattoos by Richie on Hempstead turnpike in Elmont, New York (http://www.tattooingbyrichie.com/). The artist who tatted me was Chris and he did a great job. The shading hurt like hell, but in the end it was all worth it. Would you ever consider stars or tribal tattoos?
