It's one of 18 UV reactive colors. The others all actually have a color to them, that when healed, simply looks like a faded, or slightly pastel color. but under UV they pop. The one he used for mine is a "white" ink, but truly it's colorless. The only thing you see on my arm is scar tissue, and with most people you can't even see that, but my dad's Cuban, and so I tan and show scars easier than most.

I have none at the moment, but as I am tenatively planning on joining the Navy after school, I've been trying to find a cool/meaningful Naval inspired tat to get.

I've thought about the Compass Rose, nautical star, stuff like that. Anyone with tattoo experience have any ideas?

I've already got one planned for if/when I get into the Marines, but not a day sooner lol. I don't have any NAVY ideas, but figure out what you want to get, and mull it over for a month or 3. Think about what color(s) you may want to use, where, how big, style etc. Make sure that by the time you get it, there isn't anything you feel like you can improve on. I feel like that's the best advice I could give anybody on any tattoo. What do you want to do in the NAVY? One of my best friends from high school just got through Naval OCS. She's off for 2 years of pilot training in Pensacola now.

You guys thinking about joining the service.... They are really cracking down on what, where, and when tats can happen. Get a current copy of the regs before getting one and or make sure your recruiter knows. It could be a show stopper.

I have three tats. One on each leg and one on my back. Most of the time I forget that I have them. They are small and you can't really see them unless I have a swimsuit on. My first one is 12 years old and it still looks great. When I got my first one I said that was it and since I have gotten two more. My advice is make sure it is something that you can live with the rest of your life.

I've heard this, and I'll certainly ask before doing anything, but I'm thinking that something that would be covered by a t-shirt ought to be kosher

And I know that for the Marines, the newest policy is that it has to be smaller than your hand. I'll wait until I'm in to get any more, and even then I'll be sure it's perfectly acceptable before.

I'm in pharmacy school now, so I'd be a pharmacist in the Navy (O-3)

I don't suggest getting a Navy tat before joining up. If I were you I'd just wait till after you join/complete boot camp.

I've seen many not make it into the Marines due to tats and their location or so called meanings.

Whatever I potentially get would be siginificant to where I go
