Shocked House has seen things you wouldn't believe

"Faces of Tattoos"

The past few years I have noticed that there really isn't a negative stereotype surrounding tattoos anymore. Everyone has them and everyone has there own reason, some just get them just because, some get them to remember a moment or place in time, and some get them to remember a person.  

Jaime Kirk an administrative assistant at Kaiser Permanente dental lab in Portland, Oregon
His "pirate crew tattoo" is for simply his love of pirates.  

Hani Jama, a student at PCC and her tattoo of her favorite childhood cartoon "My Neighbor Totoro",
 created by Studio Ghibli

Len Wilson a Dental Technician at Kaiser Permanente, this is his "guardian angel".
He actually covered up his old tattoo of an "angel of death". 

Caedra Spears a full-time nanny and her tattoo of a northwest forests. she simply enjoys the outdoors.

Joey Taylor a tattoo artist at Sacred Art, his favorite tattoo being the "ace of spades" on his left arm. He always has an ace up his sleeve.
