Welcome to my life, tattoo

I am very curious about when you started to regret them...

Did you get one then regret it, get another and regret it, and so on?

Or did you have all 8 of them before the regrets began?

All 8 before the regrets began. Each one has a story. The tattoo artists that I went to, one was my uncle, were all great. I just wish I would’ve thought better about the placement of them.

Maybe that’s what I should do, is cover the ones I really don’t like anymore, with something I do.

Something to consider if you want to go into modeling or entertainment/acting/ tattoos on nice skin of the actors is rejected by the producers/directors because of the legal ramifications. Tattoos are technically the art/property of the artist and it's a hassle to get a release form signed. Also the H/mu, hair and make up people on set are to busy to cover up the ink. Unless you are an already established "talent" consider your career path and what's most important... Easily hidden ink by clothes is a different story. Even on my indy productions, visible ink is an instant rejection for someone wanting to be in front of the camera even if I love your audidion... Some talent agents will pay for laser removal if you are a good actor for a particular production. I know there are exceptions to the rule...this is just what my agent told me back in 2000 just after I got taft-hartled into SAG.

On the other hand, crew people behind the camera, grips, gaffers, ACs, AD, scripties, PAs, Boom ops, sound rec. are covered in ink, body modification, etc..

I know, the new ATS hates the media in all its ramifications, even though ATS is considered a social media forum.nvm....

True for high profile escort services too. Dinner and other similar occasions like events, not the better kind of escort service that is really prostitution with strange foreplay.

It depends on the client though as you leave a little personality description for them. One time a certain dress was required but nobody minded my tattoos that are arguably hard to hide in anything that isn't pants and shoulder / back covering.

Personally, I have made MANY regrets in my life. I sometimes think that's one of the things I do best. Surprisingly, the one tattoo I have is not one of them. I still love it. I do still like the design and location, but the story that goes along with it is my favorite part. So I'm guessing that's why you said you only 'just about' regret them.

I've always wanted more, but I guess I still haven't stumbled upon the right occasion(time/place/artist) that would be another good enough story.... yet.
