My client was at a model home when a woman she'd never met…

My client was at a model home when a woman she'd never met walked right up and grabbed her arm! She loved the tattoo and she meant it as a compliment 🤷‍♀️ But it got us talking about it. There's a line between loving the art and forgetting there's a whole person attached to it. It's happened to me too! I was out at a club once with my arm taped up from a fresh piece. A lady came over, probably a few drinks in, and reached out to touch my arm. The second she felt that second skin she got so weirded out! I typically don't mind if someone wants to touch my tattoos...I'm generally flattered as well and it always seems to be some random lady that isn't giving any creeper vibes. But I know a lot of people that would be like "wtf are you doing????" Has anybody else had this happen??? #StopTouchingStrangers #TattooedAndTouched #YouCouldveJustAsked #HandsToYourself #TheArmHasBoundariesToo
