Come to academia. At least 25% of my coworkers have visible tattoos (generally ankle or forearm).

I'm strongly considering a wrist tattoo, on the side facing me but not the underside.

Get a visible face tattoo once you have tenure.

Maybe, if something speaks to me. Downside of face tattoos is wrinkles. I'm middle-aged, and wrinkles are right around the corner for me.

Right now a cute critter on my wrist would make me happy (and, side-benefit, keep me from biting my wrist when I get super stressed--no biting wrist friend! [I've tested this with temporary tattoos and it works for me.])
