I was walking in the park yesterday and a man in his mid 30's walked past with a little boy. The man had a few tattoos on his face and it looked awful. Not to drip feed but he was also shoutng and swearing at the little boy and although the boys mum was with him she just carried walking, butthats not what I'm talking about here. Does anyone like facial tattoos or am I being judgemental?

People saying things like ‘people with face tattoos aren’t people I’d like to know’ is one of the more shallow minded idiotic things I’ve seen on here today.

I don’t have my face tattooed, but as a tattooist many of my friends, coworkers and clients do. Never seen any of them swearing at a child so far.

My husband has a face tattoo, in fact he’s quite covered in tattoos!
He has ran his own successful business since 18, Is A extremely kind, Caring and Gentle man and fantastic dad, Would actually be considered quite ‘geeky’ in regards to his interests.. however he has a face tattoo.. oh the horror 🙄

Badly worded OP.
I dislike facial tattoos a lot. I dislike most tattoos actually that's only because most of them are so poorly done. I love a well done tattoo.

I don't have a problem with tattoos, both of my adult children are inked -as they call it- but they're in places than can be hidden with clothing when at work. It's just facial ones, I don't get why people would do that to themselves.

Personally I think facial tattoos should be banned.

IMO they are always done extremely badly (and probably when the person is in an extreme emotional state) surely a lot of these people end up hating to look at a mirror. Very sad imo.

I'm not against tattoos . But do feel that some get facial tattoos to keep themselves out of work.

All of the people I know witj face tattoos are self employed and earn more than me.

A high level manager at the company I work at has two facial tattoos. We work in finance. No one cares. I don't mind face tatts, couldn't give a monkeys what anyone chooses to do but I also have quite a few tattoos and piercings.

Oh good. Another thread about how terrible visibly tattooed people are.

I'll take someone with a facial tattoo over a person in a pair of Hotter shoes and a waterproof coat any day. I've had considerably fewer issues with the former.
