I just dont understand why people that look down on tattoo’s have to come into the “Tattoo” catagory and judge. Can some one answer this for me? Just because we have tattoo’s does NOT mean we have been in jail, dirty, tramp, loser, etc etc. How many times do we have to answer the same questions “why do you have tattoos” “how many and why”. I have tattoos because they are an outward show of my inner personality, they do not define who I am they only clarify what is already there.. Body ink is sexy, it makes a person stand out in a crowd (unless your at a tattoo convention, LOL). So once again: why are non-inked people so judgemental? You dont like my ink, dont look at it, and by all means DONT comment on it.

I am getting a tattoo right below my navel. It’s about 5 inches long and will stop right above my…well you get the picture. I have 5 tattoos already. However, this is the first one that interferes with wearing clothes. I go in to talk to my tattoo artist Monday, but would like answers now so I can make an appropriate appointment time. It might be impossible to wear my pants lower than the tat or higher than the tat. I will NOT wear jeans. But…my question is…will it be ok to wear loose pants? (stretch pants/sweatpants) I can’t get an appointment on a Friday because she will be gone for a month on tattoo conventions. Not sure if I can get it done on a Tuesday and have it be not just ok, but good, while I work in loose pants for the rest of the week. Any experiences/advice someone can share? Thanks!
