If you are willing to live with that knowing you will be wrinkled and old, it is still up to you. Yes, I have seen some extremely well done tattoos, but those are not for me.
I second this. Few things are less trashy looking than a faded distorted tat on wrinkly saggy skin, imho.
It isn't that it is "trashy" but merely old. Print out a picture when it is new and it is crisp, those get old and fade too. The memories are still there, but you don't see the same crispness.
Don't make tattoos about class or right or wrong. I didn't mean it as looking "trashy" when you get old. It doesn't make an old person "trashy" looking, it merely means the tat isn't what it was.
