Unless you're 25 or older just make sure that at the very least a sort sleeve polo shirt will cover all your ink.

If you want to be a welder you can get tattoos on your throat.

for most careers, visible ink is a big no no.

also, visible ink is a very good way of being identified by witnesses should something happen.

'white guy, bald head, moustache goatee' turns to
'white guy, bald head, moustache goatee with a honda civic tattoo on his forearm.'

suddenly the person people are looking for is much easier to find and verify

Whaaat! That's sick!

Im dying to get a tribal tat starting at about the middle of the neck down to just past the elbow. I don't really care if its always visible for i have no intentions of getting a desk job or customer service for that matter. Though it will still be possible to cover up with collared shirt.

Anyone on here do tats at home? Looking to save some money and skip the parlor.

okay there george clooney.

don't look to save money on tattoos.

look to save money on a winter jacket, sure.

look for quality work. shitty artists will give you tattoos that fade quickly and badly.

He may very well be, it is up to the client to follow up and request proof if necessary. Some pro artists like mine only work out of home with selected clients. He used to own several shops but is now older and not up to it anymore.

Tattoo shops often involve a lot of drama which he simply didn't care for. I have almost 70 hours on my back all done at his home. Everything is new, sterile and professional.

Very true. Heard enough stories years ago with these issues.

As you said, it will be with you for the rest of your life. thanks again guys.

You could put it on your peck or in between your shoulder blades.

I'd like to get the canadian flag just above the shoulder blades on the spine, and state 'product of canada' or 'made it canada'. It old but original, i like it.
