butterfly tattoo unique image
Q. Iâve been wanting a generic butterfly tattoo on my chest near my collarbone, but I wanted to make it somewhat unique, my mother isnât an artist but I thought Iâd get her to just one try no washing off and redoing, have her draw one on me and have the tattoo artist make it permanent.
Answer
whatever you feel looks good girlie. but yeah if it is drawn by someone (especially someone you know) then it is one of a kind and not quite as generic. ;) go with your gut!

What type of tattoo should I get and where?

I am fixing to turn 18 and I am contemplating getting a tattoo. But I want it to mean something. I want it to represent what I have been through in my life (self-injury, rape, bulimia). Also I need to know where would be the best place to put it since I am going into Air Force ROTC. What do you think?
Its to represent my moving past and being stronger.
Answer
I think that you need to think about what Tod said.
You do not want to carry into the future, the bad things that you have had happen to you, by representing them in a tattoo image.
What happened to you and how you handled it is not what you would have chosen if it had been different. Don't let the bad stuff win.
Don't let the rape dominate your life, and don't let your life revolve around it, and the things that you did to cope.
You do not win this way. You need to not carry it into the future to be free.
How do you do this? Yes, you went through a lot. So don't put yourself through more of the same! To be free, you need to find an image that is pure and free from all of that. Something that will make you smile everytime that you look at it. Something to confirm that your life is yours and that you are in charge. Something that you would have chosen if you had not gone through what you have gone through. That is how you progress into the future. That is how you have more years of happiness, and spite the bad stuff.
Give yourself a wonderful gift! Something beautiful, and strong, and unique.
Here's something powerful:

Now you may need something small for now, so:
I love this 'Lion raindrop' and all that it symbolizes:

and this would translate well into a tattoo:

Otherwise, there is the butterfly, the flower, the bird, .. all strong and beautiful symbols that you can personalize.
As far as placement, find out what you can and cannot do before you commit.
luck~
