Line 9:
* The existence and increased reliability of tattoo removal procedures or cover-up designs.
* Tattoos being ''considerably'' more mainstream than they were in the past
* Nowadays, no self-respecting tattoo parlor will serve anyone who is clearly under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Some states even outright prohibit doing tattoos on intoxicated people.
A [[Tattooed Crook]] may face this situation after going straight. This variation is far more likely to be [[Played for Drama]].
{{examples}}
== [[Advertising]] ==
* A recent{{when}} Yellow Book commercial has a bride trying on her dress and to her horror, it reveals the name "Mike". She goes to a tattoo removal (that she found in the advertised phone book). The doctor comments that she must be really excited to be getting married to Mike, when the reveal comes that the groom is "Tom."
Line 207 ⟶ 208:
** These are actually called a "tramp stamp". Most girls who do these usually do it either for a provocative message or to label themselves as a possession of a single man. So yeah, pretty risque and not something you show off often.
* In 2009 a Belgian girl tattooed 56 stars on her face. After her parents became angry she claimed that she had fallen asleep during the procedure. She became the laughingstock of the entire nation and fell into a serious depression.
* Genital tattoos. Extremely painful and also not something that's shown often. Can most definitely be (in fact it most often ''is'') an embarrassing tattoo.
