Facial tattoo addicted ... !

As a teenager I found out about my strong feelings about tattoos ;-) obviously towards inked hunks, too. At that time tattooing wasn't popular, even not in in my country Switzerland - though, I felt sometimes strongly addicted to ink myself by using sewing-needles and black Pelikan ink. It took me a few years, until I met a tattooist for my first tattoo at his newly opened studio in my city - actually at that first appointment I got two tattoos, an eagle on my left and afterwards I was ready for a snake on my right arm. Really I had a great time ! Later I came in contact to the Londoner gay tattoo scene - there was a ink related community and I was happy to find like-minded friends and buddies - some were skins and punks with visible tattoos on hands, neck, head or even the face ! Certainly I've been truly fascinated about - while I got regularely tattooed while some times staying in London in the 80-ies, I got my arms sleeved and some more ink on my chest, back, legs ... Occasionally I was visiting some studios ... and there was a tattooist, known being willed tattooing the face - I went there several times and more than once, I realised that certain obsession for getting something done. At least I chickened out ! For about twenty years since I think about: Would I regret having it done or should I even more regret not having it done ?! During the years I met some heavily inked and facial tattooed hunks at conventions ... or I've seen pics in magazine and books or on the net - still I know the strong feelings for facial ink ! After quite some time of not getting inked - I found my future goal getting my body heavily tribal inked - now, I'm looking for a tattooist, who likes to do it and certainly one I can afford. I want him to ink all the outlines, though on those body areas, where I'll be able to reach, I'd enjoy to ink myself - already I got most of the equipment together, again ... I guess, after my body will be done - I should have more visible tattoos - my left hand is inked and I really love it - which actually means, I want both hands entirely done - and I'm keen for having something on my neck ;-) and where the neck ends towards the face and/or the head, this I don't know, yet ! For twenty-five years there is a spot self-inked on my left cheek under the eye :-) like others addicted to facial tattoos, sometimes I've the need to draw with a pen in my face - tough, let me find out, if it ever will happen for real. Definitely such a decision needs a strong courage to take - because it will change some easy circumstances in a live ! During the years I was lucky to meet some face-tattooed hunks, who could stand it and obviously it opened thier mind ! Why none of them talked about regretting it ? But I've read of a few, who argued about having some problems out of the matter of having their face tattooed. Though, there's a weird feeling for the tattooed face - let me find out about, if I'll ever take such a chance !

I upload some pics from my net collection - who doesn't enjoy to see these face tattooed heros ?

    It really is fun to read your own story about ink but have it written by another. Mark I started grtting inked at 25 and have not stopped and I am 62 and in a full suit, from the base of my neck to the tops of my feet. But your progression is just like mine right down to the small dot on the face waiting to be included in more. Each time I get a visiable piece it brings me closer to doing my face. I will retire in 3 yrs so the chances get better and better. There has been more that one time that I have met uounger guys that have made the step to facial ink and just wished. Be well and enjoy the ink, as I do each day

    I never knew others drew on their faces. Good story, I don't feel so adolescent in relation. I drew on my face for ten years before I got the beginnings tatted there. Uber cool.

    Hi Mark,
    I just read your post on facial tattooing and dam it Thats my life story too! I'm starting late in life to getting my entire body covered but I'm doing it and enjoying every needle prick because I know every time that needle enters my skin its a little less unexposed skin that I have.
    Of course like you I also am obsessed with the idea of having my face tattooed and like you so far have not had the courage to do so. Have you ever seen the movie "Tattoo"?
    A tattoo artist falls in love with a beautiful model, He drugs and kidnaps her and while she's unconsious he starts tattooing her entire body. I have ,so often, wished that someone would kidnap and drug me and when I came to my face would be all tattooed. That would end this yearning and decide my life for me. Who in the hell would want to kidnap a 62 yr. old gay guy and tattoo thier face? If you know of anyone I live in Vero Beach, Fl. (I'll make it as easy as possible)
    If you ever would like to come to Florida for a visit let me know and you could stay here for a while. Bring your tattoo equipment and you can pay for your lodgings by tattooing me.
    I saw your bio in BME and I wrote to you but you never wrote back. I hope to hear from you, I love talking to other tattoo crazed guys.
    Take care,
    Les W.

    after reading all this, i'm very happy that i won't have to spend forty or more years of my adult life wanting a facial tattoo and not having one.

    i'm 21, i did it, and there are no take-backs now. (and i'm real glad there are no take-backs)

        Consider it heavily, but after a year if you still want it; go for it!! Although I knew many tounguns that got their tattoos removed from their face years later:( They were stupid ,drunk, and they got them to fit into a train hopping homeless culture that facial tattoos in the USA....I used to be a part of it, but my tattoos are a part of you, and it seems like you guys are waiting for something to happen that will not; do you always want to live with regret? It is better to have lived and lost then to have not lived at all!!!

          Brian, Being that you are in the people business and you get to see people all over i am seriously considering well past considering about getting a face/head tattoo. As I am as queer as they cum, and collect and am working on covering myself in gay theme, vulgar, vile, sexually explicit, obscene tattoo's was wondering about faces. I would like to do some sort of a gay theme tat or some sort of picture or pattern with covert words in the picture. So you really have to be up close or alike 15+ feet away for the lines to form up and make words other then that it all just lines. You ask about regrets Yes I have one that I didn't do a face and head tat 10-15 years ago. I retire in 10 years and have a birthday coming in Oct. I have been trying to find some artwork suitable for what I want any ideas? Would love to have the words COCK SUCKER tattooed around my mouth somehow and the word FAGGOT tattooed across my forehead I dont want my tats taken off I want them put on me and added to and I don't care what people think I am enjoying myself> Slave Allan

    Well I am some what in the same boat as you, during the high school years most of the swim team swimmers had the Speedo tattoo put on there top right hip leg side so it would show while wearing speedo. Several of the team guys also had tats all over them I fell in love with tats. I am now 52 and have 16 tats one being a very large Speedo taking half of my back the rest are of a gay theme the more vile, vulgar sexually explicit the better.
    My first owner started putting gay tats on me my second owner put a lot more tats on me I am now about 35% covered and now just want to finish the body and do the face and head.
    Some years ago I saw the pix of those 3 guysstanding together and something clicked again now it has become a must to have my face/head done in a or several tats but want I want to do is to have them done in covert art where I can hide several words like faggot, cock sucker or piss slave or fuck me you get the idea so you either have to stand real close or like 15+ feet away to read the words or it just looks like lines in the pattern/picture Know any tat man or artist who can draw such pictures?? Also looking foe a large free swimming sperm comic type ok I want to redraw and use large size as tat on side of my head with my mohawk. Slave Allan
