Covering a tattoo

[Gluemanz28]

Snap asks for help covering up a Tat for an interview and if awarded the job she will need to cover it daily. She is looking for information from people with experience having done this.

Now for the typical INGO response:
Never get a Tat
Tats suck
Tats are cool
Be proud of your Tat
Its the employers choice so shut up and move along
My cousins, aunts, Uncles, friends, nephew, neighbor had a Tat (it was probably just a rash that wouldn't go away)

Hey now, I gave at least 3 different options I believe. Then I went offroading.

OK, that's pretty impressive...but, i find myself asking how many bottles it took for the above before/after.

I think the "after" pic is actually the picture before she gets any tattoos.

Your first three were the non-typical INGO so are you sure you belong here

There is a learning curve!

There is a learning curve!

Not for me. I'm a sarcastic douche in real life so it comes pretty natural for me.

You seem to be a fast learner so you will be just fine.

Well now I'm just ashamed that I gave an actual answer to the original question. I feel like a newb.

 

[Snapdragon]

I appreciate any and all responses. In reality, I'm probably going to go with a combination of all options. I can tolerate long sleeves for an interview and long-term if the office is plenty cool. If the office is not cool and I have to wear long sleeves, I will be a sweaty, nauseous, cranky biotch. Enter options two, three, and four-- makeup, sweatbands (or nude-color bands), and bandaids. I may order some of the products I mentioned in my first post just to try them.

In the meantime, wish me good juju on finding a job. I'm not working now, so I can't afford to turn down a job offer on principle (at least if the principle is tattoo pride).

 

[Snapdragon]

Glueman, I can't rep ya, but I would if I could.

 

[HoughMade]

Good juju is hereby wished.

Don't be ashamed Hough even attorneys give good advise sometimes.

Everyone else here is mad. The answer is simple, appropriate, and fashionable.

Gauntlets.

Gauntlets mean business. Professional business.

Gauntlets.

(Bonus: you can get a dragon on them!)

Another option is a long sleeve undershirt designed to be worn in the heat: Under Armour New Tech Men's Long Sleeve Shirt

I think I have even better ....

During the interview you can say it's just a tattoo sleeve that you can remove if it's not a tattoo-friendly place.They will never ask if there's an actual tattoo under the fake tattoos.
And it they think those fake tattoos look cool then you can show your actual tattoo at work.

I wear one all the time to look more bad-ass.

Thanks, Hough.
