I like to donate blood and believe that getting a tattoo puts a one year hold on donating. http://tattoo.about.com/cs/articles/...d_donation.htm

Under a new Florida law its is only 4 months if the tattoo was done in a licensed tattoo parlor. http://www.oneblood.org/target-your-...or-basics.stml

•If you received a tattoo at a licensed and regulated facility in Florida after January 1, 2013, or in another state with licensed and regulated facilities, you are eligible to donate after 4 months. If you received a tattoo in Florida before January 1, 2013, or in an unlicensed facility, you are eligible to donate after 12 months.
