Disney tattoo policy?

A dollar store honestly doesn't seem that bad when you compare that to Disney prices lol.

A Disney tattoo parlor would have to expand its offerings if it were going to be a success. They'd need to offer little "Mickey ears" tongue rings and belly rings as well. A little Goofy nose ring would be pretty popular as well.
 


Yea, they could locate it right next to the check cashing store, pawnshop, vapes store, maybe even a Family Dollar store, 24 hour package liquor, the possibilities are endless.
I have to agree.

I don't know that a tattoo parlor is the kind of vibe that Disney is trying to sell.

I agree with that it isn't historically the vibe Disney wanted to sell, but I think the conversation is that things are changing and having a tattoo is much more acceptable within broad society than it used to be. As other have mentioned, before Disney didn't allow any facial hair and now they do - so Disney isn't above evolving and changing policy

as @eric1985 says if they do allow them they would have to control what is acceptable (just like with the facial hair) - so only disney themed, or only small, only on certain areas of the body, etc.
 


I hope they never put one anywhere near Disney myself. My attitude is a little extreme but when one of my junior Marines wanted one I would suggest no. I would also explain that if it got infected (very possible in Japan) they would lose a stripe, if I could see it they would lose a stripe. And if they still insisted on getting one don't put a name (you never know how long that relationship/marriage is going to last) and don't put anything on them that would make their parents annoyed.

Not extreme at all. They're nothing but graffiti. I just don't understand the purpose.

How incredibly close minded. You can send these kids LITERALLY to their death, and you’re worried about what their parents think about a tattoo??? LOL. What VERY ODD priorities.

Well lucky for me the Commandant agrees with me. Part of being a Marine is being a unit and being a child with crayons is not part of a unit and yes we had received nasty notes from parents when young Marines come home with tat's that were obscene and in one case pornographic.
 
My children, who are both Marines have Disney tattoos that are in regulation and have never had a problem with any of their tattoos. DD has 4 and DS has 6. The military and tattoos have been like peanut butter & jelly for many, many years now.

The very least thing that I worry about is my children getting a tattoo. I worry about my son in Afghanistan, guarding an entrance to Bagram Airforce Base.

I had a simple rule there if I cannot see it, it is none of my business. And to be fair I told every Marine under me the rules. If they couldn't live with them, transfer with no penalty and starting last year the Commandant has grandfathered old tats but reinstilled the policy about ones going all the way down the arms.

Again, what VERY ODD priorities. Especially for a military that is literally begging for recruits with enrollment and pay scale at an all-time low. <shrug> No wonder military morale is in a shambles. If you want robots, just buy them.

Sorry, but I have to disagree. Being in the service is a very, very different life style and its nearly impossible for those who haven't served to understand it. There are no individuals in the service. Everybody is part of an organization with a task. Everybody is expendable and replaceable. This is the culture you come into when you join.

I get that. But maybe that’s also why our military enrollment is at an all time low and entrance requirements and standards keep getting lower and lower just to find people that will join. Just my opinion.

But the subject was tattoos in the military. I don’t see how that affects any of the culture of the organization you mentioned. Tattoos and the military are almost synonymous to me. Look at all the older service members from Vietnam and Korea. Many of them are literally COVERED in tattoos. Why was it okay back then but suddenly isn’t now? What changed? I personally live in a Navy town with a large Navy base and a stroll through the mall food court on a Saturday afternoon will show you that many, if not most, of the guys all have tattoos. The navy base is literally surrounded by dozens of tattoo parlors (locals call that area “Tattoo Town”) so somebody in the military is sure getting them. LOL

Yes at least in my area of the country Tattoo shops are kind of hidden, not as much as before but not on the Main drag with a big sign outside. Its slowly getting more mainstream but still sometimes thought of as shady. Wasn't it Kansas or Oklahoma that just recently allowed tattoo shops in the state.

BTW I don't even think you can get your ears pierced on property.
 
Well, being Disney, it would probably be a $5 or $10 store.

Actually there used to be a store on the Marketplace side where everything was under $10.

Last time I was at Downtown Disney when it was still Downtown Disney that had a 5 or 10 dollar sort of an alley. But it was just stuff from the shops that normally sold for 5 or 10 dollars.

While respecting the other services the Commandant once commented that what sailors and gi's do is not his concern but we are Marines and are held to a higher status. As to you concern about recruiting may I ask where you heard that? The Corps has had no problems with recruiting. And just to clarify some of my beliefs. I should point out that I am also Jewish and drawing on ourselves is one of the big no no's.
