As a inked girl I think safety is one of the most important matters when getting a tattoed. And I encourage everyone to look for the healthiest place to get inked or pierced. Even tho I think donating is not atually an issue (at least) if you have a pretty good control over the last time you got an ink. And why am I telling you this? Because ink goes away within 8 month or so. So after that time you can safely donate.

But can we talk about the Elefant in the Room? the importance of donating have more to do about culture and education than the fact that people is or not tattoed.

I mean maybe in other countries get more importance but here in Venezuela, not everyone can donate blood. Not even think about getting tattoed. But maybe in, I dont know, Netherlands, people is more interested in donating and have that kind of things in consideration :p
