Re: Anyone have any Tattoo's
Here's what I found for the Navy
6. TATTOOS/BODY ART/BRANDS. Three Criteria will be used to determine whether tattoos/body art/brands are permitted for Navy personnel while wearing civilian clothing: content, location and cosmetic. a. Content. Tattoos/body art/brands located anywhere on the body that are prejudicial to good order, discipline, and morale or are of a nature to bring discredit upon the naval service are prohibited. For example, tattoos/body art/brands that are obscene, sexually explicit, and or advocate discrimination based on sex, race, religion, ethnic, or national origin are prohibited. In addition, tattoos/body art/brands that symbolize affiliation with gangs, supremacist or extremist groups, or advocate illegal drug use are prohibited. b. Location. No tattoos/body art/brands on the head, face, neck, or scalp. The neck area for purposes of this regulation is any portion visible when wearing a crew neck T-shirt or open collar uniform shirt. In addition, otherwise permissible tattoos/body art/brands on the torso area of the body shall not be visible through white uniform clothing. c. Cosmetic. This regulation does not prohibit cosmetic tattooing to correct medical conditions requiring such treatment. For the purpose of this regulation, cosmetic tattooing refers to medical or surgical procedures conducted by licensed, qualified medical personnel. so I guess as long as a t-shirt would cover it, and it's not a swastika (sp) I think I'll be ok |

i GOT to get me some of that SPF 85!!! never even seen it around here. does it come in a stick as well? i try to get the spf 50 roll on stick. it is like a glue stick(ones in school) and you can put it exactly on the tattoo only, instead of having to try to get the liquid to NOT run all over everything else. i have had some funny mishaps with the regular liquid like sunscreen. lol i went into a stand up tanning bed once and i used spf 50 sunscreen on the tattoo under my arm (on my bicep). well i got tired of holding my arms up and i put them to my side....................i had a big ass white mark on my side for almost a freakin year (the sunscreen got on my side from my bicep)!! hahahaha it looked so funny. |

This stuff is awesome. I really should buy stock in this company I use so much of it. It can usually be found in like a Wal-Mart or Target or CVS or something. Not greasy at all and it doesn't look like you are wearing sunscreen. |

Re: Tattoos?
i made the mistake of not using sun protection on mine in my late teens/early twenties. over the past 20 years, they have faded, but not as bad as they seem to be with my camera phone.

Well, no flogging here, but I have tats from the '80s....and they STILL look good. As Dustin pointed out, it's like a car, you HAVE to take care of them. You don't, well, it's your own damn fault if they look like ^%$%. I have 6....the latest one is about 8 years old...been kinda busy since 2001 |
Re: Tattoos?
Can't believe I haven't posted mine yet. Well, I have 4 so far. #5 will be coming on Apr. 9th (it will be the Serbian Coat of Arms, in tribute to my mom).
For me as someone else stated, my ink represent checkpoints in my life. Things that are important to me, and significant times. I think that as long as the ink has some sort of meaning to you, then go for it, but you do have to think it through before you do it. They aren't cheap, and it's even more expensive to get them removed. FInd a quality artist...key work ARTIST. You see a lot more people who have some sort of art background doing tattoos, and I feel that it has really improved the quality of the pieces I see people getting. That being said, here are mine... http://farm1.static.flickr.com/140/3...4893c44c_o.jpg My backpiece. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...g?t=1238607444 Gecko on my calf. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3551/...b0da444bd1.jpg My 2 on my arm, that I'm planning on turning into a half sleeve (at least). |
Re: Tattoos?
Great ink, Wanger!!
I really dig the backpiece. Can you tell some more about it? |
Re: Tattoos?

Each one of my tatts has a specific meaning to me. The transformation of the 2 on my arm into a half sleeve will have meaning, too...a rebirth, making the old new again, and I want to include a green tree python in it. My next one will have the most meaning of all of them for me. It's going to be the Serbian coat of Arms, as a memorial to my mother. She came here from there alone when she was 16, and didn't speak any English when she got here. She passed away April 17, 2007. Her birthday would have been this past Monday, so these few weeks will always be a bit rough on me, and I am glad that I'm getting my memorial to her within that time period. |

Re: Tattoos?
Here are a few of my newest tattoos.
Unscarred across throat. Everyone said the throat hurts but I didn't think so. http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/e...eak316/TT1.jpg Some Corey Miller(LA Ink) flash on the top of my left hand http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/e...16/3skull3.jpg Oliva pin-up on the outside of my right calf http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/e...16/CApinup.jpg Yin-Yang timpiece by Joseph Linsner unfinished in this pic, just got it finished will post finished pic later. http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/e...mepiece2-1.jpg Left arm sleeve getting close to being finished. http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/e...6/mearm6-2.jpg |
Re: Tattoos?
The Crow-I died twice in '01, coded, while dead I saw an Indian Shaman who turned into a crow and led me on a spirit journey. The second of my 2 crow tattoos. Crows carry the spirits of the dead, hence the Crow tattoos.
http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/e.../Crow2good.jpg Japanese Oni - Oni are credited with with bringing good health, safety, peace, Luck and avoiding disaster. This was a cover up of a 20 year old griffon i had. http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/e...6/oni3good.jpg The other crow tattoo i have. The 2 crow tattoos were done by Victor Ramsey 19 yo tattoo artist who had only been doing tattoos for about 4 months. http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/e...k316/crow1.jpg New tribal cover up on wrist of ex's name http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/e...16/tribal1.jpg |

CBF, I don't know much about tatoos, but your left arm sleeve is really neat. I bet it will look great when you get it completed. Thanks for sharing.

Re: Tattoos?
Just got my first one last year, and I will say it is absolutely true that once you have one you start thinking about what your next one is going to be :)
Mine is HeSeD, the ancient hebrew word for God's covenantal faithfulness. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...am/Photo52.jpg (Edit: I know it is backwards - I took the picture with the camera on my mac and it flips everything :tu) |

Re: Tattoos?

Re: Tattoos?
I dont have a tattoo yet but i always wanted to get one. I have a couple of things that stand in my way: i have got psoriasis, lots of mother's marks and not enough money to get a backpiece/big tattoo.
I have an idea for a medium sized tattoo that i consider getting in the next couple of years. I also would love to get a big backpiece. I really like a lot of irezumi tattoos by Horiyoshi III, Horikitsune (http://www.holyfoxtattoos.de/holyfox.html)... |
Re: Tattoos?
Well...chalk me up as having one as of today. I was expecting it to be worse than it was. I'll definitely be getting more in the future. I'll put a pic up when after its healed a bit.
