Regretted Tattoo

Jay has one tattoo that he regrets, which was a tattoo of his ex-girlfriend’s lips on his lower abdomen.

He has since covered it up with a rose, but initially, it was not the smartest choice he made in his life.

Career Choice

Jay had always wanted a throat tattoo but his pals advised him not to get one in case it affected his career.

He waited for a few years and eventually decided to get one.

Having tattoos in the fitness industry is not discriminated against, so he felt safe to get it done
