How about taking a minute and thinking outside the box? What if you would make this a joint project? Help her to decide on a tattoo and the location. And the most important part, finding a quality professional artist. If you help to make the decisions, you might be able to tolerate her getting a tattoo much easier.
I wanted a tattoo since I was 12, and everbody in my family had a cow evertime I brought it up. I made a comment a couple of time to my fiance, and had the same result. Finally I didn't care who didn't like it, and told her that I WANT one, and she came with to see what I had picked when I went in to make the appointment. She liked what I had picked and where I planned on putting it. To make a long story short, she helped me pick out the next 3 and she ended up getting one herself and is thinking about her second.
If a person wants one bad enuff they will get one, why not make it a shared project. Thier is a huge differance from a work of art applied by a quality professional and something put on by a hacker.
Just think about it for a few minutes.
