Unfortunately, the problem of tattoos in the workplace is still quite significant. Considering the general acceptance of tattoos over the past few years, it still bothers and surprises me how little the perception of tattoos has changed in formal work environments.
The idea that a person working in a professional setting is somehow less professional because they may have visible tattoos, seems utterly absurd to me. However, our society continues to have a problem with this.
In the past, I’ve seen this same issue in other contexts, such as the military, police, and employee recruitment centers. All of them have had serious problems in the past hiring people with visible tattoos. And now the latest debate to come to light is that of teachers, including elementary and secondary school teachers.
People generally wonder, for example, if a teacher who works in a school with a formal dress code should be allowed to have visible tattoos.
Personally, I think this is a topic that shouldn’t even be up for debate. Honestly, I believe that any teacher who has tattoos should be completely free to wear them in visible places in the school while teaching, of course, taking into account that such tattoos are not inappropriate for the public. It’s something that can’t have any negative impact on the students.
Assuming that this behavior causes negative effects on the students is ignoring the fact that they live in the same world as all of us. Tattoos are nothing new.
I think it’s time to redefine the word “professional” and adapt it to the current times. What makes someone professional about wearing a tie and a shirt? Nothing. It’s just that we attribute the values of professionalism to this type of attire.
So, in the same way, we could easily attribute values of professionalism to tattoos. Or maybe we could simply ignore them in the workplace. The thing is, tattoos are not unprofessional unless we believe they are.

- Hello everyone! My name is Jade Blunt, and I'm a passionate tattoo enthusiast. Let me share a bit about my life and my journey in the world of ink and skin.
Ever since I was a child, I've been drawn to art and creativity in all its forms. However, it was when I turned 18 that I discovered my true passion: tattoos. I remember my first tattoo, a small design on my wrist that marked the beginning of an adventure that would change my life forever.
As my love for tattoos grew, so did my desire to learn more about this fascinating art. I started researching, talking to talented tattoo artists, and immersing myself in the history and culture of tattoos. Every tattoo tells a story, and I wanted to be a part of that narrative.
Over time, I decided to share my passion with the world through my blog, "Tattoo Gun Machine." In this space, I strive to provide valuable information about tattoos, from tips for tattooed skin care to stories of innovative tattoo artists and inspiring designs. My goal is to educate and inspire those who share my love for tattoos, as well as to demystify some of the stigmas surrounding this art form.
My blog has become a corner of the web where the tattoo-loving community can connect, share ideas, and explore new trends. I've also had the privilege of interviewing some of the most talented tattoo artists in the world, who share their unique experiences and knowledge within my pages.
But my journey in the world of tattoos doesn't stop here. I'm always on the lookout for new inspiration and challenges. I dream of one day opening my own tattoo studio, where I can bring my own designs to life and continue contributing to this form of artistic expression.
So, if you share my passion for tattoos or are simply interested in learning more about this exciting world, I invite you to join me on my journey at "Tattoo Gun Machine." Together, we can explore the art, culture, and beauty of tattoos as we continue to ink our stories onto the canvas of life. I'll see you on my blog!
