Tattoos: Telling the Secrets of the Soul

The souls of men and women have chosen this season in history to speak in a unique and special way. The soul is writing its secrets on the live canvas of the skin with permanent ink... with tattoos. Many see a person covered in tattoos walk by and harbor a snarky and judgmental response, when in fact the tattoos just told a very personal story. The stories of pain, loss, hope, and other sentiments of great importance are revealed on the skin of the wearer. And those without tattoos may very well have missed a loud, yet intimately revealing, message. The previous edition, God and Tattoos: Why Are People Writing on Themselves? and this current version takes a go at the WHY. After over 1000 tattoo interviews and in tattoo parlors and convention across the nation, Allan Dayhoff shares his research, and his love for his many new tattooed friends.
