Re: QUESTION ON TATTOOING

I would say that is up to you and God. Everyones "convictions" are differant, what i might think is something you should refuse, may not be the same as someone else.
I know a tattoo artist who did 2 of mine said he would never tattoo on the nck, face or hands, his reasons were because if he took out all his peircings, shaved and put on a long sleeve shirt he could still get a normal job.My own opinion i think i would refuse satanic things/symbols and things that symbolized death, but that is just me, hope you find your awnser, God bless Meems

Re: QUESTION ON TATTOOING

I'm not a tattoo artis, however I have tattoos. I will be getting a tatto of Jesus Christ next month on my arm.
You will hve to use your own discretion on what tattoos you will ink. Obviously Satanic tattoos are out of the question but once again as a christian you have to make the decision. Good luck as a tattoo artist. I would like to see your work. Send emails when you get started.

i would think there has to be a fine line between being a buisness man, meaning fulfilling your customer's desires and then being true to your own convictions.

i would think if you have any personal convictions to tattoo this or that, either get involved in an establishment that is in the same mindset that you are, or either lead the person to another artist in your establishment that can do the work, to keep customers in your establishment but still being true to your convictions, or even maybe advise them to another parlor that may be better able to satisfy their need.

Re: QUESTION ON TATTOOING

Hello! I am a tattoo artist....and I have to say, I will not refuse work! Work is GOOD! I think no matter what the tattoo subject is or the location. I have a business to run, bills to pay, and a family to feed. I am postive God understands! Besides as an artist I can not make the choice for people! Some times I wish I could...but that's just not how it works! I Hope that helps!

Re: QUESTION ON TATTOOING

We refuse any blatant satanic designs. Things that are sexually based that involve religious symbols for sure. Yes, we have a family to feed so we cannot choose for our customers. We prefer the religious designs, there just isn't enough to keep the bills paid if that was all we did. We do not do gang related designs either.
