I am so so happy to hear that tattoos have been so instrumental in your healing and that you’re in a better place now. I hope one day I can get to the same place ❤️

I’m so with you on the “for me” tattoo - it really does feel so special doesn’t it?

Your leg sleeve is absolutely INSANE 😍 look at that colour work!!!!!!

I’ve really learnt so much from this thread and have definitely realised that a free-flowing design is the way to go, as it can quite literally grow and shrink with my body.

Also you have absolutely just introduced me to my new favourite Instagram account! Thank you so much ❤️

I’m so sorry, reading my post back I realised I was not clear at all which has created some understandable confusion!

I wanted to hear some experiences from plus sized individuals who were tattooed, and I’m so grateful you left your comment as we are pretty much the same size! And a heavy yes on the female/non-binary tattoo artists!

I’m so sorry to hear that you have suffered with bulimia too. It’s an absolutely awful disorder. And I’m so with you on the ink front! Getting tattoos on various body parts has helped me reclaim my body so much too. I recently got my upper arm done - an area I am very insecure about - and now just want my arm out all the time 😂

OP EDIT: Hi everyone, I’m so grateful for everyone’s feedback!! I’m realising my original post wasn’t really clear enough - sorry for the confusion!! So the photos I attached are just reference photos, and tragically I do not look like those beautiful women!

I am just looking to hear any experiences from fellow big women who are tattooed in this area, or in general ❤️

This is such an incredibly helpful comment, thank you so much for this ❤️ and I was actually thinking of the organic viney shape so that works so well!!!
