The Maori, of course, did full-body and facial tattooing. Some of those
were quite beautiful. And I've seen some that is very attractive and
well-done (and obviously by the same artist, in a continuing kind of
thing). What I don't like is a lot of seemingly random stuff all over. And
I don't like neck and facial tattooing at all, it speaks to me of
criminality and gang stuff. I can appreciate good, well-done body art on
someone else.....which is a change from where I was 20 years ago!
