Thinking of getting a Harry Potter tattoo...

Like the one on here, in the same place. What do you think of it? I LOVE Harry Potter but don't want anything too prominent or big. How much would this be likely to cost? And how long would it take roughly (tattoo virgin here :biggrin:

I realllllly want the deathly hallows mark on my ankle :biggrin:

and i dont think it would take to long, about 30 mins at the max. it would be quite painful though, your feet are meant to be really sore, but i think you should definitely get it :smile:

It would not take long, 10-20 minutes perhaps (could be wrong), and would probably cost whatever their minimum charge is, varies wildly but probably around £50.

If you want it and have thought it through, go for it.

I personally don't like it, I wouldn't get a tattoo that was "fan based" though, so that's just my opinion.

Completely agree. I'm not a fan of 'fan based' tattoos especially when they're really cheesy :/

When you're 30, you will regret having a Harry Potter tattoo.

Much as I love Harry Potter, I think you would regret it when you're older.

Personally, if I were ever to get a Harry Potter tattoo (not planning on it at the moment) I'd definitely get the Deathly Hallows symbol, probably on my wrist.

- Because it is actually a beautiful symbol, it's discrete, it does have the meaning of Harry Potter, but it also has the meaning of the Tale of the Three Brothers, so it would also be a reminder to not be too greedy, foolish, or thirsty for power - which I think are all great ideals to carry with you in life.

Edit - the image looks weird, but if you click on it it shows up properly.

Thanks for the feedback. I see your points, but I can't imagine ever disliking the book when I'm older. And it will still be a memory of my childhood which is where the appeal for me lies the most. And it can be easily hidden with shoes/socks etc.

I can't ever imagine disliking Harry Potter either, just saying that there will most likely come a time when you'll feel a bit silly for having a tattoo of it. If you're definitely sure you want one then I'd at least think about getting it a colour that's easy to remove (I think black is supposed to be the hardest to remove, but I'm not certain).
