Tattoos + Body Fur = Eeew.

sp32-20090113-214936

Question.  If you have this much body fur, is it more difficult to be tattooed?  I know nothing of tattoos except that they are created with needles and pain.  It just seems like putting body fur into that mix would be really really unsanitary.

These are the kinds of questions that haunt me, you guys.

    It’s not just you Mock. Before I even read your post I saw the pictured and wondered the exact same thing.

    Well now there’s one more thing that comes to mind when thinking about things to do with duct tape.

    I have a client this hairy. It is not fun to give him his massage. There is hair all over the place at the end of his session. The sheets look like some thing shed all over them, there is hair stuck all over the oil bottle, and there is hair in the hot stone water. Yuck yuck yuck.

    Nice guy, but hairy, very….

    I have the answer! They shave the body part before they tattoo it. I know this because I have several tattoos — in places I don’t consider hairy — yet they shave the area every time.

    I am thinking, however, that if he wanted to get rid of that pesky baldness problem, he should be adequately prepared to get plugs.

    For some reason this picture makes me think of those Capitol One commercials with the Vikings in them.

    He looks a bit like a naked garden gnome. A fur and ink covered one.

    I believe he has Robin Williams and Tony Shaloub beat in the furry dept.

    Yep, they shave the area even if you don’t even notice hairs there (got a few tattoos of my own)…. but this guy…. reminds me of a friend of mine who is pretty much going bald but has a mega hairy back and keeps a long ponytail

    Hmm…migration of the hair? That’s the only explanation that I can come up with as to why he’s so hair. But they do make you save your fur before you get your tattoo, though with the tattoos I got I never was shaved. Hmm, I guess I can thank my Asian lineage on that front.

    At the risk of being mocked, I am thankful that he isn’t a landbeast and hairy at the same time. Blech, that would just make it worse–and it seems like he’s a happy guy. Hah, this has to be on a dating site! This pic was the profile, now that would be awesome!

    why didn’t he just tattoo a monkey on his back?
    the hair would have filled in the fur on the little
    creature!

    Why oh why is the hair standing straight up? Lots of static in the air? That just makes it ten times ickier!

    *shudder* Megan yore, he might just have that other one pierced, we just can’t see the sucker. Yeah, how do you put deodorant on when you have this much hair everywhere?
