Okay thanks alot for responding Matthew.

Yes I thought you meant employers just verifying that, if people ask would you even bother answering them or tell them to sod off/mind own business type of attitude?

I even got asked in the pub if I served time for the love/hate tattoo – is it actually that connected that bad to…[Read more]

Hi Geordie

If I saw the guy in the UK and he had a spiderweb on his face I would prob think he had done time – simply because here it is still one of those legacy tattoos that means done a lengthy sentence.

That said it would not particularly bother me because I have done time and know how irritating it is for ppl to keep…[Read more]

Thank you for these posts it’s alot more calmer and I feel people are actually talking to me this time not yelling or slagging me off.

taffupatree indeed we’ll just disagree to agree (doesn’t mean I don’t like you because I hardly know you pal).

jmechlin I have thought about it I was talking to some guy who deals with people on the dole and he…[Read more]

Hi Geordie

The thing with tattoos is that whether we like to admit or not it does separate us from many of the mainstream because we have something visible that a non-tattooed person does not have.

They will look some will be curious, other will think we are stupid/thoughtless/criminals etc etc the majority (depending on…[Read more]

I’ve read your posts into this topic and all you seem to do is just slag me off no offence like… :rolleyes:

Listen, I’m not really comparing me to kat or tyson what I’m stating is you lot are giving me alot of negative stick about getting my face done next but you ain’t really mentioning them whether a celeb or not.

1) How is it a dumb move? I understand visible ink is looked down upon by some people but whos body is it? I’m not harming anybody…

I will post pics up as soon as the tattoos have fully healed I hate how them look now bits peeling.
I have no problem people looking but it just seems to be I go onto a train or bus and all people do is stare at your knuckles… and are like :rolleyes: and avoid you to say the least when it’s only love and hate.

It doesn’t matter if kat is a…[Read more]

The correct definition of a racist skinhead is a bonehead

All of you are saying getting your face done will make you an outsider right?
I’m sure Kat Von D has face and hand tattoos regardless of her being a tattoo artist… why ain’t you giving her negative responses?

I don’t regret my hands at all I just said that alot of people seem to stare these days compared to not having them done.

I don’t see…[Read more]

Precisely but you stated that skinheads started out racist when infact it never.

Skinheads ”traditional” ones is nothing to do with race, politics, nothing like that and all these f##king idiots you see in the newspapers and on tv have stereotyped skinheads as being racist.

Skinhead.
Some skinheads are pretty big on having their face tattoed, I saw a lot of that in the UK too.
And no… Being a skinhead, does not mean racist. It did back in the days, but not anymore.
Still, some of course have the tattoo for completely different reasons as well.
Just head to Camden, and you’ll see a looot of…[Read more]

It doesn’t bother me as such it’s just so annoying when people stare at your hands…

He just said to use bepanthen cream on them for 2 weeks it’s been almost a week and there looking good will post pic of them soon as I get my camera sorted.

My next ones are my face and the exact same place will do them :D!

I’ve noticed already with my hands done I’m getting a negative response… ffs why is this :/

On a UK meaning on tattoos you sometimes see people with like a little cross tattooed on their forehead?

What does that mean?

I know tattoos vary from person to person.

But if you was to picture a young guy with LOVE and HATE on his knuckles, cobwebs and spiders, and swallows is it more than likely he is a thug or ex-prison convict?

I often see young to middle age guys with LOVE and HATE on the knuckles I know it’s from a film and the guy is a nutter so is it normally…[Read more]

I can definitely say that taking deep breaths in and out helps me alot. I personally dont like to watch my artist while hes tattooing cuz I hate needles. When I have to go back for a second session with my artist, he makes me wait at least three weeks until he can touch up or go over the already tattooed area. Hope this…[Read more]

Yes, my first lot of tattoos are on my hands.
