Permanently Beautiful

The other day, perusing yahoo.com, I saw an article that was speculating about which of your favorite celebs have tattoos and what they might be.  The article started by musing over just how commonplace tattoos have become. People in all walks of life have tattoos, and while some who like to talk on the wild side may have more unusual ones, they really do not stand out as being counterculture as they once did. And as we have noted, many celebrities wear tattoos and many celebrities use permanent makeup.

Last year, while he was on Oprah, one fan that got to talk with him put Brad Pitt on the spot by asking him to talk about his tattoos in detail. Of course he was coy and refused to give up the goods on his tattoos. He did tell a magazine that at least one of his tattoos was inspired after Angelina Jolie scribbled on his back.

As for Angelina Jolie, some of her tattoos are more visible, including the writing on one of her forearms…and quite possibly some that you may not suspect. It is likely that she also has permanent makeup, which is in itself, a kind of tattoo.

Although permanent makeup is a tattoo, it is not one that you would want to have made permanent after you or a friend play experiment with your look, however. Apply permanent makeup requires an artisan’s skill, so you would only want to have it done by a professional.
