(26,295 posts)it was rare and made them cool because they really were outsiders. Then it became trendy and same as any other commercial trend. Unlike hair styles, hair dyes or clothing trends, tattoos are permanent.
Recently I clicked on a food competition reality show and didn't realize it was old. One of the guy contestants had a hairstyle that was popular for awhile where the lower half of the head was closely shaved and the top long and in a ponytail. Facial piercings, those large round earrings inside the earlobes that stretch them out, full arm and torso tattoos. Poor guy. Permanent damage there. He thought he was cool for the short time those things were popular. Amazed at actors or anybody who wants to model getting tattoos and not thinking it's a problem. They don't know what the job is? No historical roles for you and tattoos clash with clothes.
