Entering the military are you allowed tattoos?

No hands, neck, face

Nothing racist, disciminatory, etc.

There are LOTS of people who have tattoos in the military, just they abide by the regulations

It depends on the size and location of the tattoo. Each service is different.

If it cannot be seen when you are wearing a plain, crew neck, short sleeve T-shirt and running shorts, it's usually fine. If it can be seen wearing shorts and a T shirt, talk to your recruiter.

If it is on your face or neck, or if it is racist or offensive, you can't enlist.

It depends on the branch of the military you want to join they each have different regulations.

you can have one but you must go through a long process which involves a lot of questions like...

why did you get the tattoo?

when did you get?

does it have any meaning?

etc.

as long as it isnt gang symbols or anything like 'i love bin laden' you'll be fine.

oh, and it can be on your face, neck or forearms because it wouldnt look proper in uniform

it depends there is a kinda strict military tatoo policy going on my friend just got discharged on delayed entry program cause he got a tatoo on forearm they i think it has to be above the professional line

They cannot show when you are wearing your uniform and cannot be on your face or neck.
