Bunny you are a beast those pics of you getting your head done make me wince hard and you're just taking it like a champ.
I can't explain my guy reaction, but side/back/top of head tattoos don't bother me. I wouldn't get one but I've seen a bunch I really like. I hate face tattoos. It only screams I want attention in some capacity.
Edit: I agree you are dead on with things becoming "flash" once posted online because it's the easy option for many people
