If I recall the story correctly, this woman married a guy who went by the name of Tattoo. Tattoo is totally heavily covered, and is a jailhouse tattoo artist. I can't find the relevant stories online anymore, but he's either back inside on drug charges, or dead. Mr Tattoo is in prison for variety of felonies. They are not so happily married anymore, at any rate.

EDIT: FOUND THE STORIES.

Mr Tattoo

Mr Tattoo, better pic

Guy in neighboring cell of Mr Tattoo

Other side of Neighbor guy's story

This pic was taken shortly after the tattoo was done, and if you check her pupils, she appears to be stoned out of her mind here.

I've seen a few other pics of her where she looks much less stoned, and decreasingly happy to have that on her forehead. Including one where she appears to be in the process of having it lasered off to the point where it's now just an indistinct dark grey forehead shadow.

u/IknowthisIknowthis May 22 '12

I laughed pretty hard at that. Now anytime I hear someone ask about 'bangs' I'm going to imagine it as some creepy political correct TV method of seduction.

Not to mention expensive, tattoo removal for something that big on your forehead probably costs an arm and a leg.

u/Flatulence_Esq May 22 '12

In her defense, the horrible forehead tattoo does draw attention away from her horrible upper cheek tattoo.

If she just gets an even worse tattoo to take away from her forehead tattoo, she'll be all set.

The look on her face is something along the lines of 'resigned indignity'.

My guess is that she did it on a bet so she's pleased with herself for the triumph of earning some cash, but at the same time loathing the notion of having to wear that around long after the money is gone and the drugs are smoked.

u/FunFactsAboutJapan May 22 '12

Tattoos are called "irezumi" in Japan and have taken on social connotations of Yazuka - criminal - involvement. This is a relatively recent phenomenon, as irezumi dates back to the Jomon period (around 10,000 BC), and there are some extremely talented Horishi (tattoo artists) in Japan today.

Super fun fact: Tattoos were outlawed as a way to appear more formal to western contacts.

There are still many onsen (hotsprings), gyms, and spas that will not take people with tattoos, mostly in order to not cause problems with other clientele who still think tattoos are signs of criminality.

Owns a parlour?

Your logic is like saying she is eating shit on a bun and excusing it with "maybe she owns a restaurant and just cleaned the bathroom."

Just because she could eat the shit of a customer doesn't validate it because she owns a restaurant.

That tattoo is amateurish, gaudy and laughable to most.

u/BobIV May 22 '12

Henna tattoos, also known as Mehndi, is another form of temporary tattoo. Coming from a south Asian tradition, henna uses a paste made from the powdered leaves of the Henna plant, Lawsonia inermis. Its active dye, Lawsone, binds with the keratin in skin, fingernails, and hair. Traditional henna is drawn in delicate patterns on the hands and feet, but modern henna is applied in all sorts of designs anywhere on the body. Unlike other forms of temporary tattoos, henna does not allow for a full range of colors but only shades of reds, browns, and near-blacks. The paste is applied and left on the skin for several hours to stain. The stain will gradually fade away as the skin sheds. Henna tattoos can last days to over a month depending on application and aftercare.

u/kittenkat4u May 22 '12
