Ahhh, the “tattoo will look awful when you’re old and have wrinkly skin” myth.
Young people with tattoos don’t care what you think of them. By the time they are 70 they will have heard it endless times and not care what others think about their tattoo.
The fact is people who will think tattoos look awful on old skin will also think the same about them on young skin.
Oh, and how many 70 years olds do you see not coverng up their bodies because their skin has thinned and they feel cold all the time. Nobody who has enjoyed their ink for decades are going to regret it when they get old. Sorry to break it to you Paul.
