In the past, tattoos were considered taboo and were linked with bikers and gang members. These days, however, they are perceived as decorative, symbolic, or simply aesthetic expressions.
People opt for tattoos as a way to express their personality, to commemorate a loved one, or simply for the sake of the artistic aspect of them.
Richard Huff, a 51-year-old husband and father, used his skin as a canvas for over 240 tattoos. He somehow got addicted to them and couldn’t stop getting inked.
His wife often shares photo of him with his family, and people don’t always have nice things to say about his appearance. Only because he’s heavily tattooed, Huff is dubbed a bad father by many.
He, however, says that his family is no different than any other American family out there.
“It became an addiction, I started with my legs and worked my way up,” said Huff, who had his first ever tattoo at the age of 17.
