L33 Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 hello, i have a load of tattoos, both arms sleeved, half my back and chest in tribal now im considering now having unhidable tattoos. im either thinking some thing on my neck, prob again keeping to the tribal theme or having some thing on the back of my head or again a small tribal design on the side of my head going around my ear now im not a thug or want to give the impression that i am one. would having a visible tattoo make me seem this way? ive attached a pic but i dont think its going to help because its SO EXTREME and i dont ever want to look like that but the tribal around his ear looked nice, and the kind of thing i had in mind but not going to high, just the 2 designs closest to his ear. opinions please thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesy Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 Not sure about all the head stuff. Ive got 19 tats, and only my last 2 were easily visible being on the inside ofmy wrists. Big step in my eyes to do neck/head dude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonsupra Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 to be honest mate seems like a good idea now but what about in 20 years when you still have it and want to go into a different line of work... for arguments sake be a lawyer or policeman..... somethings need to be thought about not for the now but for the then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike3.0 Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 I wouldn't, you'd probley regret it big time... Just think of day to day life and if you went for a job interview etc... Would look even stranger when your older too. I'd keep with the body ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big step in my eyes to do neck/head dude both arms are covered, when i say visible i mean that cant be hidden with a shirt! lol! well im a electrician at the moment and cant ever see me leaving the trade. thats why i thought head over neck as i could grow my hair? currently a skin head Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TonyP Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 hello, now im not a thug or want to give the impression that i am one. would having a visible tattoo make me seem this way? In a word YES. I'm sure you're not a thug but unfortunately that is the impression I, and I think a very large proportion of the population, would have. I've known several guys with facial/head tattoos and each were really nice, decent people but first impressions are everything and it's not a good look. Just my opinion of course.

L33 Posted September 24, 2009 Author Share Posted September 24, 2009 spiders web is a bit old school thats why i thought tribal ive got a couple pics ive added and tbh i dont have many of my tattoos so ive added where u can see them. and this isnt a thread just to get my gf in the pic, i dont know how to edit before any ones asks. there my holiday pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L33 Posted September 24, 2009 Author Share Posted September 24, 2009 I know some tattoo artists with tattoo's on the heads and necks and they dont get let into some night clubs because of them one of the bouncers near mean has the "no fear" eyes on the back of his head with no fear written under. thats thug but thats the idea! looks bit nuts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j80leo Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 I can not see the images fella:(, but as for the head tattoo's no don't do it bud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L33 Posted September 24, 2009 Author Share Posted September 24, 2009 can any one else not see them? so call you need the right "image" to have a tat on your head? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 My bassist is a tattoo artist himself and has sleeves, chest piece, back etc. etc. He has a bit going up one side of his neck from his shoulder. It's not toooo in your face (no pun intended). I think tats on the face are giving out a very strong statement and attract alot of attention regardless. It's all upto you really, I wouldn't be as fussed seeing people with anything slightly coming to the neck area, but the face is a bit different I guess. Many folks perceptions will be immediately recognised I suppose! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L33 Posted September 24, 2009 Author Share Posted September 24, 2009 im not talking about face mate, side of head above my ear is closest to my face, if not my neck quite fancy those thick outlined stars if i was getting a neck tat as below. either side of throat perhaps only reason i say stars, i have tiny stars inbetween the tribal with shading around them, and stars around one wrist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j80leo Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 I can see them now fella but i would not have any above the neck area as you never know when you might not want them to be seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L33 Posted September 24, 2009 Author Share Posted September 24, 2009 thats why i thought head to grow back hair? its always hard because i dont know what situation i could be in, in a few years time. like i said im a electrician so always on site so it dont matter but then i might be doing the same til retirement. i already took the step of having full arm sleeves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 That's cool then. They're an addiction anyway so you probably already know you're gonna, just want forewarning of how they may be perceived! Becoming much more socially acceptable and such.
