You’ve got to be careful with tattoos.  They can look amazing, but something that seemed like a really cool idea when you were 19 may not seem so amazing when you’re 35.

Here’s a few simple tips:

Make sure you get a professional tattoo artist to do it.

Start small and build your design over the years.

Avoid names or anything that you may change your mind on.

Avoid any parts of your body that are going to stretch.

#GayTattoo

We like to keep an eye on our Twitter feed for examples of some of the guys who are getting their #GayTattoo game just right.

To be honest, most of our Twitter feed is filled with sex-positive guys who like to show off every inch of their bodies. We’re happy to lean into that. We’re happy to lean into that hard.

Here’s some of the tattoos that have recently caught our eye.

Alessio Vega

Alessio keeps it simple – you don’t see a lot of ink on his body, but he’s got a cool arrow down his right forearm.

Andy Star

Andy has opted for a fair bit of ink – he’s got some shoulder detail and some really impressive wings across his back. The eye-catching one though is that Andy has his name tattooed across his lower back. It saves time on introductions, or could be a helpful reminder in case you need to remember which name to shout out in the heat of passion.

Beaux Banks

Beaux has his tattoos strategically placed – a band around the right forearm, his left collarbone, down the side of his rib-cage. It’s clear that he’s thought about them, that they mean something to him. It’s a relatively restrained approach to body-art.

Boomer Banks

Boomer has embraced his body as a canvass. There’s a lot going on in the ink department, but it totally works from every angle.
