Not for me – I have a son to support by myself and can’t afford to write off my career chances on a selfish whim – I think people who are young and not in a stable job yet and get visible ink are pretty dumb, but it’s their business, it’s just a shame when you see some 18 year old coming out with hand and throat tattoos or whatever knowing they’ve closed so many windows on themselves before they’ve even begun. If they’re secure in life though then good for them – much braver than me! Although I imagine there are not many professions other than tattooing/very liberal design fields that’d be happy with face tats.
I think it depends on your profession, I work in an office where I wear a suit so it would be a big no no.
I have seen some sexy neck tattoos but they are covered up with a shirt, I think covered up tattoos are just way sexier than very obvious ones. I just feel they are more special if they are a bit less visual and obvious.
Does anyone get this??? or am I off on one ???
I get it, it’s just about personal taste, my tattoos are all somewhere I can hide or show at my discretion, mainly for the career reason I just mentioned, not to be sexy or because I particularly think that’s sexier, some might think facial tattoos or whatever are the sexiest thing on earth, and others may be like you, we’re all different.
I guess I have to learn to be more liberal.
I just think subtle tattoos that are private or have meaning are the kinds of ones I would get.
I have to be more accepting of people who have different ones for different reasons and put them in different places.
if it wasnt an issue to do with work…. for example you were a tattoo artist, would anyone get one on their face?
I think its daft to get partners names though, are you gonna get it crossed out and replaced when you dump your current lover?
I have my sons name on my back, but I’d never get a partners name, visible or not. Even when I’ve been head-over-heels smitten thinking ‘he’s the one’, I’ve fortunately always retained the knowledge that even the strongest of love doesn’t always last, so it just racks me with disbelief when I see kids going out and getting their boyfriend of 6 month’s names emblazoned on them. I don’t have such a thing about husband/wives names, of course marriage often fails but divorce is probably no more expensive and painful than laser is, so you’re already signing up to a lot with that one. But I still wouldn’t do it, even if I’d been married for a few decades and going strong, I just don’t like the look of partner’s name tattoos, it’s a bit tacky in my opinion – but then some people think that about kids names, so it’s all a question of taste 🙂
I think kids names is good and its something important to you. I already said I like tattoos that are important to the individual. My mate got his first tat on sat a phoenix its symbolising a change in his life, he lost loads of weight. So its great and symbolic. Your kids are never gonna leave and always be dear to you so I like their names as tattoos.
maybe a tattoo tear, reminds me of a sad clown lol
the game got a star and la on his face he covered up a butterfly under his eye
and then ya got mike tyson with the tribal all over his face
i almost got one on my neck last night but it ended up on my leg instead of my neck, said it wouldnt work
