Tattoos used to be taboo (except among the bikers and rock stars). Back in the day, you wouldn’t dare show them in the professional workplace.
But we’ve come quite a way since then. From neighbors to high society celebrities, we see people from all stripes of life with body art in the form of tiny tattoos, sleeves, and even the full body.
My special guest Friday Jones has seen firsthand how society’s view on tattooing has changed since she entered the industry in the early 1990s. She’s a trailblazing tattoo artist who’s worked on the likes of Angelina Jolie, Lydia Hearst, Aaron Neville, and other worldwide famous figures and leaders. For her, though, tattoos go beyond just being an art form.
In this episode of the Words of Love podcast, you’ll learn about the trajectory of tattoo culture in society and how tattoos have come to symbolize freedom, self-expression, and more. Friday will also discuss her journey in the industry, her work with practitioners on mastectomy tattoos, and the process of legalizing tattooing in Montenegro (while discovering its secret regional history along the way).

10:39 - How nurse practitioners and patients responded to the idea of nipple tattoos
14:15 - How society has embraced tattoos and how they’ve become a symbol of empowerment and freedom (for myself included)
22:18 - Friday’s favorite illustrative mastectomy tattoos and how women’s partners react to their body art
25:15 - The idea behind Friday’s first tattoo and why she almost passed out when the needle hit her arm for the first time
29:41 - How Friday helped legalize tattooing in Montenegro and uncovered a forgotten cultural history of tattooing in the region
