I have a tattoo and my tongue pierced. I had my ears stretched to a 1/2 in a few months ago but had to lose them for my job. :/

See now why do jobs have to be so anal I could see if you wore disrespectful things to work in them but if you wore something nice and tasteful I can't see why they would say that it kinda sucks because it's like telling you that you can't have your ears pierced!! I'm getting ready to start school in September for dental assisting and when I go to get a job I'm putting the plugs in that look like skin so they won't know I have mine!

I have one tattoo. I have my ears pierced that's it. No more tattoo or piercing for me. I'm having the one tattoo I do have removed in the future.

The photo wasn't coming put right so next time or later will post up.

I tried the skin toned plugs but my boss wasnt fooled, I am suprized that she hasn't pitch a fit about my tongue.

I am not getting anymore peircings, buy I have a few tattoos that I am planning for after everything. :)

Hey - fun post

I know this place locally that sells the flesh colored ones and they custom make them to match your exact skin tone!

My shop does that too, but at a half inch it is hard not to notice someone with large lobes. Lol And my ears are back to normal anyhow, I home my tummy is as fortunate.

I have 5 tattoos and 3 piercings in each ear. One tattoo is on my right thigh and is the size of a dinner plate. Sometimes I forget I have it until I put on shorts LOL I have one on my left wrist that is in chinese writing which means "Open the eyes" - to remind me how lucky I am, how beautiful everything truly is and to be thankful. I have a butterfly on my left foot with a lotus flower and swirly q's, the last two are above each ankle...one is a tulip and lady bug, the other a sunflower and bumble bee. Hoping to get one more on my left thigh of an angel holding an american flag or depending on what my leg looks like I may carry on with the butterflies all the way up my leg. we'll see :)

Has anyone done a tattoo reminding them of where they have been, the RNY, or the new you? I have a 4" tat of a tree FROG (representing Fully- Rely- On- God) on a leaf cross and I'm thinking of trying to incorporate my journey into this or creating a new one. Any thoughts?
