All-Star Coaches Tattoos

[Cheer Dad]

I don't have a moral opinion but I may have an asthetic one.

Soooooo if the tattoo is pleasing to your eye you are okay with it?


**Don't be silly, it's only sandbagging when OTHER teams do it.**

I think all of our coaches have tattoos. Does not bother me at all.

CP's fave coach has tats. I don't have a problem with them as long as visible ones are appropriate for public viewing.

@JayySoFierce Don't just think about how more tattoos would affect cheer... think about the rest of your life too.

I've had 2 small tattoos. One of them I ended up lasering off because I didn't want it anymore. It was expensive and painful. Also it only works well with certain colors, mine worked. The other one I still like but sometimes I wish I didn't have that one either. So yeah, definitely think twice... or more.

I"m okay with it even if I don't like it.

I hate to even say this, but I hate it when female all star cheerleaders have visible tattoos on their stomach, side and/or back. I don't think they should be visible in your all star, crop top uniform. I don't particularly care if you have one on your ankle that I can see, and that probably makes me sound crazier. I just know that if we are trying to have our sport respected, having a giant tattoo down your side from boob to hip bone doesn't necessarily scream All-American athlete.

All that to say, I could care less if you have tattoos as long as you are a good coach and not wearing a half top on an Open team.

This, of course, is just my personal preference and I wouldn't pull my kid from a gym that had great coaches - tattoos or not.

Okay. Was misunderstanding tut original comment.

Meh - it's 2015 is my feeling. You would probably be surprised by the parents who have tattoos. I have several, and one of these years I will be finishing my half sleeve. (maybe when cp stops cheering).

That being said, I have a conservative job. My bosses don't care if I have tattoos but I need to keep them covered at work and meeting with clients. I can never wear dresses to work and when I attend Gala's or black tie functions at work I need to wear a jacket to cover my arms and black tights. Also sucks attending golf tournaments in summer, I can't wear a short sleeve shirt. So just some things to consider with placement of potential new tattoos.

i agree. its obviously not my decision and i respect others decisions to tattoo, i really don't like big stomach, back, thigh tattoos while watching a team competing. it. is. so. distracting.

may be an unpopular opinion but i never have been and never will be a fan of sleeves. i think it looks unprofessional, but of course it depends on the occupation. however i wouldn't judge a persons competence on a sleeve tattoo of course

Tattoos don't bother me at all. Could not care less about someone being covered in ink, or with no tattoos at all. Unsure as to why it's even seen unprofessional in the first place lol. I'm not really even a big tattoo person, I have the smallest tattoo ever and don't really care if I get more or not.

Obviously if someone has tattoos that are offensive or have a negative connotation, I would see them a lot differently & question whether or not I'd like to associate myself with them, considering that they felt strongly enough to mark that on their body for life.

I was only asking because there are a few aspects I'd like to add to one of mine. I have one on the side of my hand, one on the inside of my ankle and one on my foot. So most of the time, people hardly notice I have one at all! I just wanted to add onto the one on the side of my hand, I have a million ideas to 'flower' off of it.


wow I hate myself for that pun.

 

[MzLyn23]

I coached and I have 13 tattoos... Personally don't like face head or neck tattoos and not everyone can rock a full sleeve (I.e. My husband... Lol told him to stop at elbow lol) I think that like everyone said, as long as they're not vulgar or offensive u should be fine. Expand!!! I am. I have 3 more planned (and then I'm done). And yes I have mine in places that I would need to be in a tiny bikini for everyone to see all at the same time and that's not happening anytime soon lol. The only ones constantly visible are my wrists my ankles during summer and my shoulder depending what shirt im wearing and that one is a star so everyone likes it lol.... Aww we should all be sharing tattoo pics lol we can play the guessing game of "hmmm I wonder where that tattoo is placed??" Lol

 

[TheVipersMom]

Not the best pic but one of my daughters favorite tumbling coaches at another gym has a bunch of tattoos ... Literally a bunch i forgot the number he told me! He has quite a few more than this now too! I never thought about it, I guess there could be people who don't like him because of his tats but I've just never heard anyone say that!


Anyways i don't see a problem with what you are wanting to add! I hope others would feel the same! Good luck!

I could never get a tattoo because I'm the most indecisive person ever. I never got stickers at the dentist when I was little because I would never take them off and stick them anywhere because I couldn't handle the idea of them being permanently stuck somewhere [emoji23] that and I'm a wimp.
But, I'm weirdly sentimental and I really love tattoos that mean something. I've never understood the practice of getting tattoos just because. I feel like if I'm gonna permanently ink my body it dang sure better be special to me. And I respect tattoos more when they have meaning behind them, but that's just me.
Anyway, I have very southern, conservative, religious parents and neither of them think twice about people with tattoos, for what it's worth. As long as it's not any of the aforementioned bad types. And spell-checked. (I went to high school with a guy who got a long quote on his upper arm and they spelled afraid wrong...)

So....I could've written this post. Word for word.

I love looking at people's tattoos. The bigger and more artistic the better. Sometimes I wish I was all tatted up.
