Biggest con (before working from home), has been a few run-ins with some religious zealots yelling that I've descecrated my body. Twice in the last year resulted in physical assaults by older men when I didn't take their concerns about my immortal soul seriously. Have to hide them while I travel, just to be safe. (Have a full back piece, and full sleeve. Also, I'm a woman, so your mileage will vary if you're a dude)

Hello ,really nice video and def agree with all your points.I have both my arms sleeved,upper chest,shoulder blades,base of my neck in back,tops of fingers,both calves,inside of my knee and top of thigh ..😅When I used to work in retail I would get looked at like a zoo animal sometimes if I wore short sleeves.I also was grabbed and asked after if they could touch my tattoos"After the fact" or asked are they real...lol.I'm 49 years old now and the last professional tattoo I got was over 10 years ago.As I get older my pain tolerance has lowered so I'm fine with no more tattoos.Some of my finger tattoos I did stick n poke and they def look homemade but I still love them.It can be a big,BIG con sometimes when people only see your tattoos and not you as a person.I want to wear long sleeves and a turtleneck sometimes but that wouldn't be me really🤣😎🤘🏻

Ever since my first tattoo 10 years ago I am being very careful about: 1) sun exposure 2) scratches and injuries. Therefore my behaviour has changed and I'm simply being more conscious of my environment. I am now used to it and it doesn't require any effort from me now, although my girlfriend hates me when we go on vacation and it takes me 20 minutes to put sunscreen on, dress accordingly and evaluate activities to make sure I'm prepared xD

I actually think it's not as painful as people make it out to be. Yes it hurts. But it's not unbearable. It only gets really bad if you've been sitting there a really long time and the skin starts to get real tender. I have a huge tattoo all over my back and I was there for 8 hours. Yeah, that was real pain. But a 2 hour tattoo on the arm is nothing to me now.

One thing people don't realize (and will come to many as a con) is that even though they are "permanent", if you want them to look killer down the road, you have to take care of them. Moisturize, sunblock, etc... people who don't do it end-up (usually) with tatts that don't look as good/crisp/fresh after a few years. Even my oldest sleeve (16 years old) looks amazing, but it comes at the cost of lots of sunblock and lotion. Jobwise: I made sure that all my ink can be concealed with my longsleeve shirts. It's not a matter of shame but more of looking professional and also (a big also) a matter of me wanting to know "who" sees my ink (as you said, don't want to only be the "tattooed guy").

I remember hearing some great advice that "your tattoos should never be bigger than your personality". However, I've noticed that that's definitely unavoidable at times with bigger and more visible pieces. I'm a pretty normal looking guy, and have a full-color leg sleeve. The biggest adjustment for me has been getting use to some people staring or giving me dirty looks, but that's how it goes. At some point, you just have to be ready to accept that this is how you're advertising yourself to the public.

As a tattoo artist myself. The biggest con I've noticed is clients thinking they know everything about our art and industry, telling others what to look for, what is right or wrong etc. Giving misleading information to viewers. I will always support creators and anyone working hard to make a living. But if anyone not in our industry try to give advice to others it's a huge insult and disrespect to any artist. I appreciate you not being one of those people.

My biggest con is that I have sensitive skin and eczema. Having a full sleeve, my skin reacted strongly to the shock to the skin but after 4 months it’s settled really well and healed really well. It’s just annoying having my eczema flare up easily and I have to make sure I’m using the right kinda aftercare and moisturiser. But i love my sleeve and can wait to start my next. Another con that annoys me is old people with no tattoos always saying I’ll regret it when I’m older or itl look like shit when I’m old. Fuck off lol I’ve heard it so many times, I know what I’m doing.

I think one of the worst things is people feeling like they can borderline (and sometimes straight up) insult you to your face because you have tattoos. I work in retail and I have a sleeve that you can see because I wear a t-shirt and one of my regular customers told me that tattoos were a disgrace, completely unprompted. I mean, what is the point? The only outcome of that comment would be me getting upset, so what is the purpose? Luckily I'm not a more sensitive soul, I was just shocked that someone would feel the need to voice something so unkind. One guy asked me what my future husband would think. As if I would cater my life choices to someone who, at this point, is imaginary (and probably always will be considering I'm not interested in romance) You have to laugh or you'd cry haha.

Hey, great video! One con I had was that either due to a nickel allergy, or to the black ink used to outline my work, I still get reactions and raised linework when I am stressed or sick, and it's been over a year. I'd originally planned to get two or three more tattoos since then, but, well, for one the world lost its mind, and for the other, I'd like a little more time to see if my skin stops reacting when my immune system flares up. Was interested in the title of your vid because after forty+ years I finally got my first tattoo in fall of 2019. A small part of that decision was to give the world a big, stylish middle finger, because the main reason I was finally moving forward with my tattoo dreams was I stopped being able to work because of progressive vision loss. Sweartagawd, being visually impaired ranks right up there with having face and neck tattoos in terms of feeling disenfranchised from society, and generally being unemployable af.

And the negatives i got from them was " o your just trying to fit into the crowed"" or your just doing it to feel different " " you know thats going to ruin your career path " and it got me to think like yes it going to disipointment my parents but i see it as a investment for me and who i am and how i want to exspress my self.

There are just as many people with visible tattoos then people without them at all. People definitely look at me differently but for me its been positive 90 percent of the time. Im also 29 years old and tattoos are easily accepted in my age group.

Anyone else compliment tattoos just to show off yours and end up having a good long convo

The cons are definitely greater when you have head, neck, hands, and fingers done unfortunately I have experienced first hand. I did iron work before and it’s been tough to transition into the corporate world. I never thought I’d want to when I started getting all of these tattoos. Here I am 10 years later though

I definitely agree with you about having a vision as to what you want your tattoos to look like in terms of a vision for your body. But they definitely are addicting, I love the feeling of getting tattooed, for me it's like therapy the only thing I concentrate on is the pain. I'm hoping they'll be a point where I'm happy with what I've got and then I won't feel the need to get anymore.

My biggest con is tattoos in the work place. The last job I had, which I left a year and a half ago, wanted everyone to cover all tattoos. So you're right, even though tattoos acceptance has improved you got to be careful with the work place. My tattoo is hidden for the most part but my next tattoo is going to be much more visible. Hearing your experience does make me a little nervous about people's judgments but I think I'll be okay. Also the addiction and the boost of confidence from body modification is real for me too.

@@justinkd It was a data entry job for a bank, but we had clients come by every now and then. I used to work some Saturdays and people can display their tattoos then.

Absolutely in agreement here. I've recently had my third tattoo on my upper arm to complement the others in the same place. I'd love to get more lower down my arms but am reticent due to perceptions at work. You could say I'm not exactly a shrinking violet, so being covered in ink is not the best idea. At this time.

At the end of the day, its the person behind the ink that makes them have meaning. That can be negative or positive. So yes be wise/aware with your selection/placement of ink and know yourself above all. But most importantly become a better person with or without it not allowing the ink to define you, rather detach and become what you admire.

The tattoo doesn't make the person. The person makes the tattoo. The same with a jumper.
