Laser Tattoo Removal and Tattoo Judgment

In the process of compiling material for the Inflicting Ink Tattoo studio blog, it is only natural to run across negative tattoo stories from time to time. What seems to be trending at the moment however, is a very specific form of judgment and prejudice toward tattoos, piercings, and body art in general. While this could be seen as individual preference, what it often plays out as is severe restriction and limitation toward tattoo enthusiasts in the workplace, and socially as well.

The highly stereotypical assessment that all tattoo wearers are somehow flawed in their ability to mingle in higher realms of society is an archaic, inhumane, direct form of societal control, and harassing behavior. The idea that people who like body art are somehow associated with motorcycle gangs and illegal activity, or have moral compass issues, is deeply rooted in Hollywood and media hype. And frankly it really is time for us to get over this aspect of judging people because they look different, or choose to adorn their bodies differently than we would.

We are moving into a time where the 'tribe' as an outcropping of societal living is coming more into focus. The idea that we are all in this world together, to reach common goals and live common dreams, is becoming more and more prevalent. With this integration of common beliefs, we are naturally moving toward tribal societies; communities that care for one another and provide sustenance in all forms to each other through daily life and activities.

There is no room for segregation in this new world. Whether on a small business, or a corporate level, the time has come for the mind and soul of a person to be considered more important than how they look to us on a physical level. Our advancement and growth as a planet depends upon our being able to overcome these very stereotypes.

If we met a Maori tribesman who integrated into our community for some reason, would we segregate him because he bore tattoos all over his face? When we separate people into categories like this, we lose the ability to connect and learn from everyone.

The sudden expansion of laser tattoo removal has allowed for the removal of tattoos that the wearer no longer wishes to display. In most cases, the drive for tattoo removal is based upon a personal desire to be rid of a certain piece of a memory, or something that no longer speaks to the wearer. In how many cases however, is tattoo removal spurred by a desire to 'fit in' or to get that corporate job that will not allow you to have a tattoo in a visible place? As long as the tattoo in question is not violently offensive to people, why should this be an issue?

Very soon, there will no longer be the option of judging someone based upon stereotypes or appearance. Because everyone is vital to the community, and has a role to play, everyone will be completely at ease in their expression of their personality through their body art, or in any other way they like. Be true to yourself, and make your own choices. If someone tells you that you need to dress a certain way, or look a certain way to be a part of something, think long and hard before eliminating actual physical aspects of your appearance to fit in with their vision.

Naturally, if you yourself don't like your tattoo anymore, or it has faded and doesn't look the way it once did and you want to have it removed, by all means, find someone with a high quality laser tattoo removal machine, and go for it. If nothing else, it will free up valuable skin real estate for something even grander to replace it.
