I'm Not Sure

When ever I get get up in watching LA Ink I suddenly feel the urge to get a tattoo but I always end up scared because of my fear of needles. But after having a conversation about how my great grandfather had a tribal chief tattoo because thats what he was back in Nigeria. So hearing the description from my mother and understanding the meaning behind it I feel that if I was to get a tattoo I would definately get it. I'm going to have to wait to go to the U.K. to get some vintage photos of him from my him to mimick the same markings for when I might get the tattoos. And since there are absolutely no photos on the web showing an example of what I mean I will show mine when I eventually get them.
