Beyond the esthetics or the lack thereof my concern lies with the possibility of Hepatitis B and C infections some tattooed folks may carry (not to mention HIV).. Tattoos Linked To Hepatitis C In New Study

People heavily tattooed are about three times as likely to carry Hep C than other folks. The Risk of Viral Hepatitis From Tattoos

Obviously, prison tattoos are not regulated. (shiver)
