I dunno why but I though the portrait was of Emma Watson! Such a beautiful tattoo

[@kartsupirtsu]

meee too!

[@Frankenzebra]

thats three of us at least

[@laurenmjee8979]

same

[@sealfluid7789]

i thought so too

[@TheOnlyMaHoneyGirl]

i thought it was lana del ray at first tbhhhhh

[@Thatbohomom]

ok so i just binged watched all of your videos. im your size, we have probably about the same body, same hair, same style. you are sooo confident, and lately i have just been feeling like crap about myself. complete dirt. i cried a lot, im a bartender and i covered up completly stopped doing my hair and make up as excessevly because i kept on feeling 'youre too fat to be bold.' you cant do this cuz youre too fat. youre not like to other girls. thank you for giving me a bit of confidence back. watching you opened my eyes. its okay to be different. its awesome. i swear to god your videos jus got me out of a ditch. Thank you so much helen. you dont know how much you helped me!

[@esayaht7854]

I really love your thigh tattoo

[@H3lloKayla]

Me too, will look even better once she's added colour :)

[@14mspickles]

I do too. She has a video of it being done either on this channel or her other one. It was pretty cool to watch!

[@1997memi]

I love this side of her. She's changed so much since this time.

[@ChrysaIis]

HAHAHA. "I say small but he was huge. Like a seal.". That made me crack up so much, haha. X.

[@lenkafrancova7925]

That Emma looks a little bit like Emma Watson :D

[@islalanfear4140]

Idk y but i disagree w/u all cuz she looks nothing like Emma Watson!🙄🙄🙄🙄

[@candicesj]

I'm on a "my tattoos" youtube video craze lately and SO MANY start by saying they got their first tattoo young without enough planning and that they recommend waiting a longer. Most don't regret it per se, like you... they accept it, but would've made a different choice if had their current maturity.

[@jenniferlynn6783]

Wanted a tattoo since I was about 13. I've always been into 50's and pinup , I've had an idea for about 2 years and I was thinking about getting it done on my 20th. I'm only petrified of regretting it since I'm very fickle and I have no clue if i'm going through a phase right now lol

[@5050TM]

Yeah, best to wait a few more years deciding if you're fickle!

[@MagicalTrevyn]

I'm 15. I've been planning most of my tattoos on a serious level since I was 14 but I've wanted tattoos since I was 12. Depending on the size, place and colouring cover ups are easily done and if you're that desperate you can always laser remove them. One tip for you (or anyone wanting a tattoo) is get it drawn up and put it somewhere you will see it everyday. My designs are on my notice board and wardrobe. If in a couple years you've become bored of it, don't get it done. If you still like it then get it done.

[@CarlyRowena]

Love this, might have to expose myself to youtube also! see you tonight! xx

[@EleanorMayCBlog]

Carly Rowena yes, do it! (Because I'm not nosy AT ALL) ;) xxx

[@shannonkemp426]

couldn't not reply to this comment when i now watch your channel too!

[@angharadirvine9279]

You've gotten so slim! Way to go!

[@GraceWebster01]

You missed the heart tattoo on your wrist!!!

[@ciaokitten02]

Hi! I'm new to your channel so I don't know if you've answered this kind of question already but I'm thinking of getting my first tattoo and I don't know what to do, what to expect, etc. Do you have any advice on this? Thanks! :)

[@abby7396]

Melon, how do you get your hair that color? I want to do mine similar but I have no idea how to go about it

[@DONNAASAURR]

Your thigh tattoo is so professional! Well done!, that person does a great job.

[@daisywalters1932]

My fave is the thigh tattoo.. I love how they look but would never have the guts to get one myself!

[@garyc]

I've never been a tattoo fan, until a couple of years a go. I became obsessed with a show in America called 'Best Ink.' All the butterflies are lovely. 'Stand Sure' is brilliant! :D

[@ChloeFrench]

I have wanted the same tattoos since I was 14 (I'm 17 now) and I was just thinking, is it a good idea to get them, if I can, when I turn 18 or should I wait a bit and think about it? Thanks :D

[@iMandyHere]

If you have the money, get them!! If you've wanted them for over three years I think there's no more to think about :)

[@DaijaWatson]

What is that tattoo idea?

[@ChloeFrench]

I have a few haha! They all have different meanings but I want an arrow on my spine, a dream catcher on my thigh, an elephant on my wrist and two quotes :)

[@DaijaWatson]

girl, go for it!

[@onetwo6886]

i got my first (and only) at 17, i don't regret it aside from the colour i chose. i wish i had have got more but its probably a good thing i can get them now as an older person because i have been through life and know whats real and important to me xxx

[@NatashaJane]

I got my first thigh tattoo when I was 16 and my parents went mental, was not very fun.. Love your tatts, especially miss emma, so beautiful!

[@gknip0]

what was your tattoo if i may ask? :) and was it really big and that's why they got so mad? :O

[@NatashaJane]

Knipp Udd It's quite confusing to explain, you can see it a bit in my videos.. And yeah I think so!

[@VintageFrillsBlog]

Emma is so pretty!!! Great advise on waiting I got my first at 18 and luckily still love it. I'm now 28 and still trying to decide on my next one as want to be sure!

[@chockycake1]

A big fan of tattoos, have one, and love yours, however, just read an article in the newspaper where a woman lost her job because of the tattoo she had on her foot! Obviously your tattoos fit in with your lifestyle, but I would say to others just beware and think about where you and what you seee yourself doin in the future.

[@TheEmeybird]

Actually she can sue that company. Its not legal to fire someone over a tattoo unless its in the company's policy about specific tattoos. I'd sue the hell out of them Bahahaha. I hate that society deems tattoos negatively still when they are just expressions of art.

[@ashelizdavis]

In all honestly, in the nicest way possible, I think we need to do the exact opposite of not getting tattoos because it could potentially limit career options. We shouldn't have to decide between expressing ourselves and having a job. I know the perception of tattoos is changing because look how many people have them and how visible they are! Idk I just think it's really important that we keep being ourselves and doing what we want as long as it makes us happy and healthy. One day, our generation is gonna be in charge, and we are gonna give a fuck if people have tattoos, so I think we should sick with that mentality now, too! With that being said, it's not like I plan on going out and getting a face tattoo, but at the same time I think it's so unreasonable to no do what we want because someone else who doesn't really know us wants us to look a certain way.

[@ryanm7249]

TheEmeybird I agree with Emybird. Society doesn't want to except people for having a way of expressing themselves. I have both of mine in places where I can make them visible and cover them up.

[@ashelizdavis]

HOT DAYUM, i made a lot of typos. S/O to everyone who got through reading that comment and understood what I meant to say. My bad, people, my bad.

[@Breeza1998]

i agree with TheEmeybird and also it shouldn't be such a big deal anymore with jobs i think. almost everyone has them now and if every boss were not to hire someone because of a tattoo or piercing no one would have any jobs and no bosses would have any employees

[@AlixMurder]

Your humor and voice make your videos so fun to watch

[@OllieMooed]

Your older tattoo vid was the first one of yours that I ever saw! I'm so glad I did! Love your videos (and your tattoos).

[@alyssawaked9313]

My first tattoo when I was 16, its a black and white classic pinup girl and I still absolutely love it! I've always loved vintage and retro, and now I dress and style myself as such, so she still really fits.

[@SebMakeup]

I got most of my tatts including my sleeve after 30, the ones I got as a teen I'm not so keen on now. So agree with you Melon!! X

[@lollymay13rocks]

I regret my first tattoo too; the chinese character for year of the dragon. I was 17 when I got that done and I thought it was all deep and meaningful... ugh. Buuuut I wouldn't get it removed because it meant something to me at that point in my life and that has to count for something surely? :)

[@FloorFlawless]

Lovely tatts! I actually would've get my first this summer, but I have to wait a little longer bcuz of money but I have the idea for what I want for like 5 years now and I still want it ;D

[@xfirefoxy]

I got mine when I turned 18, I planned exactly what I was having when I was 14. I love my drawing for 4 years so I got it and I still love it :) My only regret is I wish I got it an inch further down xD

[@simplylldxo]

I have one tattoo, I got it not long after I turned 18. I originally wanted this heart with a spike going through it - it would have been on my lower back so essential a tramp stamp but that tattooist closed down the studio. Instead I got a quote on my upper back, in between my two shoulders and it says 'inner beauty counts' in fancy, calligraphy style writing. I do regret getting it but it's part of me now. I do want one of those sugar skulls on my thigh though.

[@Mollymakeupp]

I subscribed to you about a week ago and can I just say I think you are amazing! You quickly went up to my top 3 favorite youtubers. Your personality is just amazing and I love your sense of style. Keep up the amazing work!

[@HeatherDaisyMay]

I'm getting tattood tomorrow and again Monday! Been waiting over a year to get the two I've wanted done, just to make sure it wasn't a faze! Omg I've got like two tattoos that I hate as I had them done when I was in the rebel part of my life lmfaoooo omg bad times. But now it's all good I'm going to get them removed soon soo wooo! Xxxz

[@musicVamp527]

I love your tattoos. :) They're all beautiful. I have four myself, two I've gotten on camera, two I have not. All are very meaningful to me, especially the newest one. Which is a memorial tattoo for my black lab that died last year, and my great grandma. I don't know why I mixed the two together, but I did

[@ami1am]

Ahh I'm so glad you made an updated tattoos video :) The half sleeve is sooooo purty. I am 19 and have 3 just now, love them all.

[@TaelurAlexis]

You are so full of personality and enthusiasm and I love it!!! Makes me happy lol

[@AliCatt777]

I really want a tattoo but I don't know if I'm going thru a phase :0

[@llauranne_]

Carry a picture/drawing of it around in your purse/wallet/as your phone background and if you aren't sick of it in like a year or so then you could think about getting it tattooed. :)

[@ladym31]

If you find something you like,draw it on yourself and live with it for a few weeks :) then you can see if you enjoy seeing it there and if you like the design :)

[@AliCatt777]

Thanks, those are both good ideas! misslauranne LadyMalys

[@leesha666]

AliCatt777 i always try to think of it as in if for some reason i didn't like the tattoo anymore, would i regret having it on my body? If the answer is no, then go for it! I have some friends who don't necessarily love the tattoo they got once upon a time but now it symbolises something else and they are still cool to have it there. just a thought! Other thing I've done is hang a photo on the wall so i see it when i first wake up and if i don't get sick of it, i know its a keeper! ahahha

[@danguoles7459]

I was wondering, can I change my nose piercing after 2 months it's been pierced?

[@hayleighrobb4429]

i absolutely LOVE your hair like this! its a beautiful style!

[@Sinsearach]

I absolutely love how chirpy you are in this, puts me in a good mood :) after much deliberation I really want a couple tattoos . Excitedd

[@EmilieB]

You are soo beautiful + in love with your tattoos!

[@MLeeT21]

Typically I'm more of a fan of black and white but I really like the heart thing on your arm. Also I had deja vu when you were explaining your thigh tattoo and it was like I knew everything you were going to say about it before you did.

[@adc_15]

Love your hair white? What toner do u use?

[@linnniemisto7189]

I totally agree with you about not tattooing yourself during phases, yet I somehow think it would be kind of awesome when you're older just to look at your body and remember all of your phases and how they were..

[@HeavenlyMakeUp]

my spur of the moment tattoos are the ones i love the most. they remind me of that carefree time in my life.

[@Kegsi]

They all so beautiful! Love them!

[@molsymillar4758]

how do you put effects on your videos? love your tattoos!!

[@theveganandanimalactivist6134]

do you get tattoos with cruelty-Free ink?

[@DiamondInTheRough07]

i have that crop top, haven't actually worn it yet, you have motivated me to wear it

[@famous22ful]

Your hair looks so nice like this!!

[@JoShadeReads]

Awesome video :) You're so right, I've always wanted to be heavily tattooed and had a few odd bit done over the years but I'm so glad I waited (Until I was 34!) to start my sleeves. Needs them finished and then onto my legs :). I love that heart on your arm, it's gorgeous and the colours are so pretty xx

[@selgrosso471]

she's so real, love her videos!

[@YensR]

Probably shouldn't admit this, but I think "tramp stamps" are generally aesthetically pleasing and the only bad thing is their reputation. Thanks for telling your story! :)

[@shortshortsshorty]

What style is the portrait tattoo done in?

[@ItsMelliB]

I got my first one at 18. Had to wait from the OK from my cardiologist.. 16 I was asking questions. By 22/23 I had 7 tattoo's LOL...

[@knewwine]

Helen Melonlady..you are such a doll...I love your personality and free spirited ..you always make me laugh....keep up all the good work... be blessed

[@lpsrocks13]

You're like a role modal, you're pretty and your personality is amazing !

[@sheepgray08]

i love how happy you look in this video

[@briggyjudith]

Love all your tatoos! The melon ones are absolutely adorable!

[@TheBeautyTeen1]

Where did she get the shirt that she's wearing in the video?

[@Pestmom]

You forgot the heart on your wrist

[@MissGiniColorful]

i LOVE tattoos, i got.. 13? i really don't know, im too lazy to count xD I wait till my 18 birthday to get tattoed I do regret some of them (2 actually), 1 of them is already cover it, and the other one is just too common, its not that is awful, or bad.. is just TOO COMMON! (I do have a tattoo about my boyfriend, we got 5 years together, i do it in our first year, its not his name, but its about him)

[@1DDrakeJB29]

i got 3 done a month before i turned 17 and now im 17 and want soooo many more haha but i love your tattoos they're very beautiful!!! :) & you're absolutely gorgeous btw! love your videos!!

[@MegzyBxx]

I plan on getting a tattoo for my first pet as well; he died two years ago and he was my best friend in the world. I've got the design and everything all planned out I just need to find someone I trust to do it since it's so meaningful to me. I also have two other tattoos and I don't regret either of them! Loved this video. :) x

[@stopmer3198]

I actually really like the skull tattoo on your lower back. He's like a little memorial to an important time in your life.

[@JoansStyleMusic]

I want a full sleeve on one arm then prob a half a sleeve then a upper thigh and maybe my side

[@MargieMe93]

Melon! I have to ask, where did you get that top?! I love it :D

[@VerityAndCakes]

I really want to get tattooed by Jody Dawber. Love her work. All your tattoos are so nice though!

[@krystalxevette]

Completely obsessed with your hair style today

[@binahi8491]

i love ur thigh tattoo!! u shouldnt get it colored it looks so pretty as an outline

[@HeatherDaisyMay]

I've got my dog freddy tattood on my wrist and my cats name and my star sign on my other with a little paw, so it's kind of a triple meaning tattoo and is by far my favourite "Leo" as if I ever have a little boy he shall be named Leo ♡♡

[@ashelizdavis]

LOL that poor bra strap. I hate when that continually happens. It's like, CMON bra strap you know the rules. But on another note! I have a first pet tattoo too!! It's a finger tattoo and it has a little doodle of a cat face next to the name "RAMONA" in my moms handwriting because my mom loved her and so did I. It's always nice to hear of other people with pet tattoos :) and I love all your other ones! That diamond crystal is so cool!!!!

[@roseblossom1083]

I just love how you are full of energy and light:)

[@lauren2703]

I love your hair this colour Helen💕

[@racheldouble1864]

I have 7 and regret 1! A quote.. then everyone got it :( not exactly well hidden on my collar bone either

[@ShaleeSheen]

What quote ?

[@racheldouble1864]

Sometimes you've got to fall before you fly.

[@ladym31]

It's amazing what you can do with a cover up tattoo :)

[@racheldouble1864]

sure is, just don't want to regret the cover up lol

[@IceKreacher]

It is also from the Sadman comics.

[@sarashutter]

I love your makeup in this video please do an eyebrow tutorial ahh😍 and I love your tattoos they are so creative, I'm super jealous.

[@kaylafullen8730]

I lovw your eyeshadow look. You should do a tutorial if you have time! :) rad tats:3

[@lecrae4123]

I love your tattoos! You remind me SO much of the you tuber Rosie!!!

[@MediocreMolly]

My first tat was a spare of the moment tattoo, but I wasn't going through a phase... they had a Friday the 13th offer on (they did 13 tattoos on people for £13 each) so I thought "fuck it". I love it, and quite a few people will have the same tattoo because you had to choose from a selection. Its only diddy, I have another dedicated to my heart rat, and im planning a thigh piece next woo woo

[@ijustineapplestore]

Your thigh tattoo is so pretty!

[@noramartine2870]

I've only got one tattoo, which I actually got when I was only 15 years old. Kind of regret what I got, but at the same time I don't really regret getting one, because me and my mother decided to be spontaneous and just get one, so it kind of represents the bond between me and my mother I feel. I have a small heart on the right lower part of my belly, so it's not really visible to the entire world either :)

[@user-e2023]

The diamond heart tat is my fave. Very pretty :)

[@x3sucker4akissx3]

You should get all of those tattoos colored in!!

[@candicejolander1766]

It's so funny that when you showed the tattoo of the woman on your arm I was thinking to myself it looks like Emma Watson and then you say her name is Emma even if she's not made to look like Emma Watson. Beautiful tattoos :)

[@fluffypancakes15]

I want to get my first tattoo of me and my god when we were very small. We were both 2 and she died when we were 13. Can somebody tell me if thats a good idea...ive talked to a tattoo artist and he said it was a good idea.

[@lilyardalan8812]

helen!! where did you get that shirt?

[@mialikeseverything]

You look so good! How's the health kick going?

[@oursummerjam]

I have 6 and I regret 1 that I got when I was 16. It's a Swallow on my collar bone. I like the idea but it was done very badly by a scratcher. When it's re done i know I'll like it again.

[@evaloller8304]

I love how long your hair is getting melon!! Looks lovely.

[@TheChangingRoom]

i love the one on your inner right arm! i want one there too!

[@abbielouise4761]

"He was like a seal" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@mistyeydgrl]

At least your first tattoo is well executed! I don't care for my first tattoo either, it's a heart about the size of a quarter on my tailbone that looks like a blob now. I got it when I was 18 as well, and I'm a lot older now. Someday I'll have it covered.

[@andersonneema]

Oh my gosh! Thats my family crest! I'm an Anderson too!

[@verenah]

Probably one of my fave tattoo tag videos I've seen, because you gave good advice! And I also like that you named the artists cos that interests me almost more than the designs half the time! I love your shoulder/half sleeve and your leg! Also representing the 'under 18 and just why?' club. And the 'went to a festival abroad' club. Although luckily all of mine are alright, I would still rather have better ones in those places! My tattoos I got over the age of 20 are the ones I REALLY love to bits. We live and learn eh.

[@nadinej7579]

I love the stand sure tattoo :)

[@sprinkledxcupcake]

LOVE the heart diamond tattoo- its so cute!!

[@emilyanderson8853]

I want the Anderson tattoo 👏😍 the stand sure quote speaks to me

[@tamlynnbrown4143]

I'm only 13 & I love the whole tattoo and piercing look, your tattoos are so sooo nice though, I want a sleeve when I'm older:') x
