Human photography essay

Tattoos don’t make you tough

The reason why I am so anti-tattoo is because first of all, it is really expensive, it takes too long, and also, I think ultimately they’re ugly. Having a totally clean human body, no additional nonsense is the most beautiful to me.

Why is there such a trend right now to get tattoos? I think honestly, people are bored, have nothing better to do.

If anything, nowadays, it is more uncommon to not have a tattoo. The new flex is to have a totally clean body!
