Like most of the choices we make when we’re young, our picks for our first tattoos can sometimes be a little hit or miss. We might love both the tattoo and the memory for years to come, or as we grow and mature (and get our next, better tattoo) we might have some regrets.
That said, some people hit it out of the park on their first try (or get super lucky with an amazing artist), and so these 14 folks probably won’t be regretting anything.

Any ol’ day.
