Oh, well, then this makes it quite special, doesn't it? The extract from the article quoted in post #138 has identified a definite trend, I think. Having said that, what we really need is for the Lord to change people's hearts, that is, on the inside, by His grace. Whether they later get some outward design to show their new-found faith is another matter.
Blessings.

PS: Misty77:
Yes, these days, the experience can be approached with a good amount of confidence, with the usual precautions and common sense, of course. As meggars said about her experiences, on the other thread: What meggars says about the ink is very true: the inks these days are much better than they used to be.
Blessings.

Well, I guess this is just how it should be, if she made a good choice.
So do you know the 72 year old tattooed lady quite well, then?
(Sometimes people will get to open up quite a lot about how they feel about their ink.)

She talks about her tattoo a lot. She is a very open person so she talks about everything as well.
Presley:
Sounds like it's a really nice tattoo, anyway. Is it faith based in design?
If you've known her granddaughter for that length of time, I guess the granddaughter herself would also be old enough to have one, if she wanted. In terms of social and fashion history, things have progressed a great deal; from having been a man thing, years ago, now in terms of family trends and customs young women -and young men - today in getting tattooed may well be following their grandmothers.

Well, it's an individual thing. But it also happens as a family trend. Particularly if she is about contemporary with you, it's not at all surprising that she has had it done by now (more than once, in fact, you said). Though often there is family influence and custom.
You may not know her mom and dad, but maybe they are both inked, as well, well before your friend about your age was?
Such a family trend wouldn't be surprising.

Sounds like you saw her dad's faith based tattoos.
So it was three generations: father, grandmother and granddaughter all tattooed. I guess it's kind of a nice thought really that it was the dad's faith based designs that probably 'blazed the trail' for inking in the family...don't you think?
