A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

    I’m going to have to agree with Helena here. I’d add more but she pretty much said it all.

    Oh…and brunette, but only because the cut is nicer.

    To be fair, Shauncey Fury has a totally valid point.

    Personally I think they look good. I’d prefer some originality though. Too many dumb kids have stars, and it’s becoming a status symbol of mainstream “cool”ness. Which is a shame really.

    The reason that many people get star tattoos is that many people think they look good. End of story.

    It’s true though that they can be a bit ‘cookie cutter’ or cheap if not done nicely.

    both hot. i think a mix of both would be sweeeet. the dark looks healthier tho.
    also i gotta say somethin cuz i have a star tattoo *blush*…i realize why people think stars and other classic symbols are not original, cuz alot of ppl hav them. but the truth is the star is an ancient symbol, perhaps one of the most ancient symbols in our civilization, it has many meanings and is important in the ancient and modern cultural mythology of our world. there are so many reasons why someone would want a star tattoo, if its 5 pointed or 8 or 7 pointed or 6 pointed. symbols have alot of power and tattoos are symbolic. but yeah i guess some ppl might get stars because there is a bit of a trend right now and i can see how as a tattoo artist you would get sick of it.
    the only tattoos that do bum me out are when someone just gets some really baddd scratching done from some guy in a basement with a home-made machine.
