I don't mind tramp stamps too much, myself--so long as they're not too big. But your point about designs is a good one. As far as I know, no one is saying to women in adult entertainment that getting tattoos will increase their sex appeal or marketability, the same way they say that about breast implants or lip injections or any other form of cosmetic surgery or alteration. People who get tattoos do so for reasons of their own, and those reasons can be very personal and significant--and if someone doesn't care for tattoos in general or a special design in particular, the person who has tattoos is quite likely to tell that someone to go jump in the lake. Someone else mentioned seeing the human body as a canvas--myself, I see the body as a sculpture, perhaps a kinetic sculpture. Does anyone think Michelangelo's David would be improved by a Heart Of Jesus on its upper bicep, or a tribal design covering its left shoulder? Or even its face? Not me. So yeah--I think we're going to be stuck with the tattoo craze in porn for a while. For better or for worse. _____________________________________________
My viewpoint exactly pat362. This is an industry where you're probably going to see tats on many if not most of the girls. But you can minimize the impact of the tats with camera angles etc. if the model hasn't gone overboard. However when a girl has large tats all over her body, you can't minimize them.
Absolutely turned off.. That's why I got out of current era stuff for a long time and focused on my Keisha collection, until now... A few days ago I stumbled across a thumbnail photo of Ella Knox. I've already ordered all of her interracial DVD's and going to get more. Also joined up on Twitter to give shouts out to her for being a natural beauty and ink-free ( hoping this motivates her and a few other new starlets to stay "clean". ) I'm getting back into the modern releases because easier to find than the old VHS classics. There are others, but I'm needing to researching and saving material because there's so many new starlets I forget.
I like them. But it totally depends on the performer. A few tattoos here or there I don't even really notice. If a girl had no tattoos either I probably wouldn't notice. And I really like some heavily tattooed stars like Christy Mack and early Julia Bond. But Julia is a great example of someone who in my opinion went too heavy on that tats and she's almost unrecognizable now. Big difference between early and mid career Julia Bond to late career and current Julia Bond. But to each their own.
yep. And porn stars get all offended at it like everyone MUST love them. There are tons of people left who still prefer no tats. ftvgirls mentions if they have no tats, as clearly they know it's more ideal to not have them for modeling.
Ironically, though, one of my fav porn stars ever is Bonnie Rotten. lol. So just shows if one does something hot enough I don't care anymore about the tats.

lol. nice timing. I didn't see your post and just mentioned her.
They're unfathomable to me. I wish the idea/technology could be uninvented and forgotten about for eternity.
I've seen so many women who were basically as physically flawless as you could wish to be go ahead and cover their bodies with random doodles or huge sleeve tattoos over the years, at this point I've come to view tattoos as a desecration of nature.
Every time some performer I like suddenly appears with a full sleeve or some massive tattoo of, I dunno, the poop emoji on their thigh it's just depressing. And since they're so prevalent these days, it feels depressingly inevitable even with the most naturally physically flawless women.
There's nothing I can do about it. I have no right to say what other people should do with their bodies. And I wouldn't criticise a performer personally for their tattoos. I just stop watching and hope that the next performer can resist the urge for as long as possible.
I used to think I wouldnt be really into girls with tattoos. I find myself not caring if a girl has tattoos. I even came around to being comfortable watching Katrina Jade even though her tattoo on her temple of her head used to distract me in a bad way. Now its like whatever. Now I like tattoos in certain places like on the face or right above the pussy. Even then though there are exceptions like Ivy Lebelle. She has a ton of tattoos and one is right above her pussy that is of a butterfly. I definitely dont mind. I dont like tattoos on the sternum but Evelin Stone is an exception. Even tattoos that are sleeves and all on the back I wouldnt prefer but I dont mind them with Keisha Grey or Romi Rain. I think simple ones like on the fingers like Lena Paul and Karlee Grey or on the like Kristen Scott, Lacy Lennon and Carter Cruise I really like. I even dont mind the tattoo that Gina Valentina has by her ear. So again I guess it just depends with but in general it rarely turns me off it just depends on the performer and the tattoo location to me. As much as I love Julia Ann I didnt think I would like her dog tattoo on her arm. It doesnt bother me at all. Then I think about Kenzie Reeves tattoo on her chest. I know she covers it up in tons of her scenes but it doesnt bother me and I wish she would fully be naked so I can admire her amazing body because Im definitely not turned off by her tattoo. Even Sinn Sage got an arm tattoo and then a tattoo of her in a scene dom Lily LaBeau on her thigh and it doesnt bother me.
I do think it is becoming a trend. Alyssa Reece recently got tattoos on her wrist and she said she want to get another tattoo. Kenna James said she really want to get a tattoo on her wrist as well. So to those who are turned off by girls with tattoos then its going to be hard press to find a girl who doesnt have any tattoos eventually.
Although I am not crazy about the proliferation of ink. A pretty female whose performance and personality can win me over. If they go over my threshold I just move on. I do find it irritating when one poster complains and several others repeat the same comment. A good way to turn off potential performer interaction. I remember the Hannah Hays thread. The funny thing was earlier in the thread some posters questioned her intelligence. She posted and suddenly some of the critics did a 180 degree turn. Last thing, I find there are several porn males with face tattoos. I remember the old RAME board where some posters called the male performers parolees.
At this point I would've figured most people could care less about a few tattoos on a performer. For me a few years ago it was kind of odd to see a porn girl with a lot of tattoos but at this it's so common I don't give it a second thought. The only performer it bothered me with was Janine. And even that wasn't about her having tattoos per se...it was about her just seemingly getting tattoos just for the sake of getting them (in my mind) because she didn't seem to put much thought in the tats she was putting on. It all just seemed to be random tats with the sole perpose of covering her skin. At least that how it came off to me. But I look at pics of Janine now and it doesn't bother me at all. I even find some of the alt girls covered in tats to be sexy, like Megan Inky and Calisi Ink just to name a couple. It's a look. It can be an interesting visual for a girl. When a girl suddenly shows up with a big one it can take a few minutes to get used to but after that, doesn't bother me. It's yet another thing on the long list of silly things porn fans get bothered by.

A few are OK but too many is a huge turnoff. Lip injections and long, glamorous "porno hair" with the big curls are also big hell nos
I watched some old early 90's porn last week and it was so nice to see the beautiful girls with no tatts and big hair. Too bad the background music killed the scenes a lot for me. Very distracting watching those great looking girls!
I don't mind tattoos on the back, it's a flat canvas. Romi Rain, Breanne Benson are two of my favorites that come to mind. Small tattoos on wrist, ankles are totally good with me.
Some porn stars I used to love but I'm no longer interested due to new tattoos. For example, Alex Grey, Keisha Grey, Julia Ann, Noelle Easton are some that come to mind. These girls don't shoot any new mainstream scenes anyway but I have no interest in joining their OnlyFans. I'll just keep watching their old scenes.
Tattoos don't tend to bother me at all. If someone who didn't have an arm sleeve suddenly appears in a scene with one it can take a few scenes to adjust (eg Marley Brinx) but I won't stop watching. Actually now it is the scenes WITHOUT Marley's sleeve that are strange to me. However, I do prefer no tattoos (on all genders) and will not be getting any myself. But if they DO have them, I can enjoy the scene anyway.
Ink, in most cases make the girl look hotter. There are some girls who just look amazing without though. Like Jennifer White, she is just perfect with that pale white skin and no tats at all. Then you get girls like Joanna Angel and Monique Alexander where their ink makes them look much hotter than without IMO.

I'm (slowly) coming around on the tats. Attitude and sex appeal goes a long way with me when it comes to the tats. For example, Mason Moore is one of my all-time favorites; not because of the tats but because of her personality, how hard she worked in her scenes, and that amazing body (pre-butt implants).
I'm more concerned about the number of girls going for botox, lip injections, eye work, and other cosmetic surgery to their faces at such a young age. It's their bodies and faces, so, of course, they can do what they want but I've, personally, seen too many young, pretty girls chasing, I don't know what, with these "modifications".
Do you know this girl, Anuskatzz? Her whole body is tattooed. She's a piece of art. Super hot, if you ask me. I mean, she is beautiful in a very unique way.
Would I feel the same had she introduced herself with no tattoos and added them later? Well, probably not. When I'm into a pornstar, looks is an important part of what I follow. I'm open to a variety of different looks, but I'm not usually a fan of drastic changes mid career. New tattoos are not what bugs me the most, at all.
I'm with PornStarNamedBuckNaked: I find this lip injection trend and all the face work much, much worse. It's just mind boggling to me, and it's everywhere. After that it's boobjobs mid career, where there are a minority of examples I can get into, and lastly new tattoos, with which I'm much more tolerant, but to a degree.
to me Ink, in 100% cases, makes the woman less attractive to a degree or another. Sometimes I can stand it (Katrina Jade), but In certain cases I don't like anymore women that I previously saw as an example of perfect beauty. Also, from an artistic point of view 99,99999% I've seen are as bad as the drawings kids make in middle school.
Tats are more and more common, definitely a niche that is bigger with twitter/etc. Depends on the model, but Ava Minx has definitely gotten me into the whole genre
I think it's a tragedy what many women are doing to themselves these days. Too many tattoos, ridiculous/bad looking hair colors, male type haircuts, ugly piercings. Why would women want to destroy the gift of their femininity and the things that make them beautiful?
I've realized a few minutes ago one of the most beautiful performers of the last decade has decided to put an incredibly ugly tattoo on her bum. Why. Why, mother nature gave you the gift of being incredibly good looking (a gift that a lot of people would love to have) and you decided to ruin it like that. I suspect it's the kind of person that seeing a painting of Raphael would just tag it with a spray to "improve" it.
Hannah Hays was one that didn't need to be tatted. Understanding it's her body and decision, but yeah, it's hard to swallow the tats she's got. Pulled these pics from another thread on ADT.
^^ I think getting into porn was a terrible idea for Hannah. Lots of interest from the sleazebags who unfortunately go with the turf. About the snake...didn't she have a lizard as a support animal? Maybe she likes reptiles, but not the human ones.
Don't quite know, but I hope she's in a stable place. I agree she wasn't prepared for this industry, which many young girls aren't. They should have some sort of seminar like they do for rookies in the NFL before they take their first step. Hannah could've been big, but she couldn't handle the stress in the industry. Really sad for me.
I really hope this thread doesn't descend into attacking performers who do have tattoos. Saying that a performer will 'regret' getting tattoos is very assumptive. I actually don't mind Hannah's tattoos, and they aren't the reason she is no longer very active.
By all means say you don't like tattoos, but when a name is mentioned and then negative comments follow it can become personal and it shouldn't be like that at all.
Deeply disappointed to learn today that two physically flawless stars that I've really enjoyed in recent years have gone down the tattoo route. They've gone from being naturally unique and captivating to covered in random doodles just like every other girl. I wish we could go through an enlightenment period that would reverse current attitudes towards needlessly distorting their natural beauty.

Moderate tattoos are the best
Look at Ava Austen, Adreena Winters, Aria Khaide, Kacie Castle, Malena Nazionale, Marica Chanelle, Cassie Bender, Evelyn Claire, Alexxa Vice, Lolly Dames, April Olsen, Lauren Phillips, Ryan Conner. List goes on........................
As I think I've said before, I'm very conflicted about tattoos. My starting position is, I hate them. I really dislike them. Not just in porn, but in real life. On men or women. I think they're insane. I see footballers covered in them and think they look awful. I see women walking down the street covered in them, and I think they look terrible. I was on the Tube in London this afternoon (what we call our underground railway system) and a young woman got on. She must have been no older than 25, and her legs and arms were covered in tattoos. She was wearing a low cut top, and her chest and neck were covered in them. She was a pretty girl and I thought to myself, she's ruining herself.
And yet, and yet, and yet.
I do think they can be incredibly sexy. Some of my favourite pornstars have tattoos, and I think there is something so sexy (in a really base, trashy sort of way) about them.
There is a British reality television star called Jemma Lucy. She's sort of porn adjacent these days, as she posts fairly explicit pictures of herself on Only Fans. She is covered in tattoos, all over her body. Her, neck, her face, everywhere. In ten, fifteen years time she will no doubt look at herself and think, 'what the fuck was I thinking?' I look at her and despair. And yet, I want to fuck her so hard, it hurts. She's got fake tits, fake lips and her skin is plastered in ink, but she's hot as fuck.
^ Those kind of tatts are exactly the type I can't stand. The kind where you just think, "why are you doing this to yourself?"
I don't hate them all. I've dated girls with tattoos. Funnily enough, I dated a couple of girls who regretted some of their tattoos... but still went and got more of them. It was so weird to see them so enthusiastic about their new tattoos after complaining about their old ones and trying to hide them.
I think it's the complete needlessness and irrationality of them that I find so off-putting. I can tolerate a tattoo or two on a pornstar if they're tasteful and if they had them when I was introduced to them. Charlotte Stokely, Tori Black, Ariana Marie... their tattos were simple, ever-present and therefore didn't detract from how gorgeous and attractive they were or indicate any sort of change in their state of mind.
It's when I see someone who is beautiful, in some cases practically physically flawless, choosing to cover their body in random doodle after random doodle, or cake an entire arm in black ink, that I find completely mind-boggling and depressing. Why? What's the point? Why don't you appreciate your own natural beauty that we all find captivating?
And once one or two appear, then more often than not you can bank on the spiral into tattoo addiction. I immediately shift from wanting to see them as often as possible to being reluctant to seek them out in case the next image / video I see there are more random doodles all over their body.
Honestly, the two stars whose tattoos I have just found out about... that's it, I don't wish to see them on my favorite sites any longer. No requests, no subs, no purchases, not even social media clicks. My interest has evaporated.
There's a star who recently retired and I'm glad. I've been a big fan ever since she entered the industry, I've got probably a hundred of her scenes on drive or disc and I could've watched her fuck until she was 50 if she'd stuck around that long, but I'm now glad she is retired because every time I saw a new scene from her, there'd be more ink on her body. I hope she finds genuine happiness in her retirement, but I can't watch her become unrecognisable any longer.
And that's my attitude now. I just disengage the moment the doodles start to appear.
I don't think this topic is helped by pointing out particular girls with lots of tattoos.
Obviously this thread is, for the most part, populated by people who like less tattoos rather than more. So putting up pictures like in the post above above, or the ones of another performer that were put up a couple weeks ago, are inevitably followed by a bunch of piling on. Several posters in a row will come in and say "why did she do this" "she looks so bad now" etc.
It's certainly not helpful for the girl's confidence, but it's also not helpful for the thread itself. It doesn't add anything to the discussion of whether or not you like tattoos. It just provides an example of tattoos that you presumably don't like.
So, let's avoid these before & after examples guys. They only serve to make the posters of this thread gawk and get angry.
Yeah I know I'm probably of a different generation now to most of the young porn fans but for me tats totally ruin most porn for me these days, I just find them too much of a distraction and I dislike them on most girls, some it somehow works if they have an edgy face but oh god you see so many models now its not alternative girls anymore, its literally everyone, even the softcore models are caking themselves and you see these sites like wowgirls or sites where they are beauty focused photography sites and there's loads of new girls with tattoos everywhere, I just don't get it myself, don't get why they would think this would be a good thing to do when going into a beauty industry, but as I say maybe I'm too much of a old guy now lol, in my opinion they are totally detracting the beauty away with these doodles and ugly ink and for me certainly not necessary when 100% everyone looks better to me without any tats, does nothing to make them attractive to me, I know some guys it's the opposite and they fancy girls covered in tats.
I guess I've always associated them with gangs and guys from prison or guys from rock bands, so as soon as I see them I'm instantly seeing them as totally a masculine thing so it loses any attraction thing and for me and just makes these girls look too tough looking and takes away their feminine side, so not what I'm into.
It must piss of these older alternative girls who once it was a way to stand out and a major aspect of them identifying as some sort of misfit or part of the outsider culture, now it's just seen as another girl with tats and nothing different at all anymore.
I rarely download anyone with tats, only if they are really small ones, on occasion if the girl manages to have the edgy look like Angelina Jolie I can sometimes get over the tatphobia but it's a rare occasion, so yeah porn these days has rocketed downhill for me and I have to rely on older porn mostly.
My problem with tattoos is the same I have with cosmetic surgery.
If a girl starts off in the business tatted then I tend not to be bothered by them (especially if the tattoos fit her personality) but if a girl isn't tatted and proceeds to turn into Kat Von D then I have a tendency to lose interest.
I sometimes get turned off if the tattoo is really generically awful (dolphin, Playboy bunny etc.) and amateurish.
Tattoos were never a big deal for me when it comes to porn girls. Years ago I kinda found it distracting when a girl seemed to be just getting what I would consider ugly tats for what seemed like getting the for the sake of getting them. These days tattoos are so common I've actually started to get into them to an extent. In the past few weeks I've come across Janey Doe, Jessie Lee, and a few of the BURNING ANGEL cast of girls and I find I'm into some of them. If Jessie and Janey didn't have all the tats I probably wouldn't have given them a second look but the tats make them stand out. I've even gotten in to the older German girls with lots of tats like Eve Deluxe and Kitty Core. And I'm not even in to tattoos. In real life I would probably never date a girl covered in tattoos to that extent but I'm just fine watching a tatted up girl on screen.
I would never want all girls to look like Janey or Jessie or Eve. I like variety. I honesty don't understand how so many of you here just like watching the same sort of girls doing the same type of scenes over and over again and then complain about it.
Sorry for the off topic query, but the NFL does this? Would love to read anything you have about that. I'm really surprised they provide that info, considering their track record on concussions.
