This woman chose to get a tattoo instead of a face-lift for her 80th birthday. ?? "My tattoo is a gift I recently gave myself as I approach my 80th birthday. It is also a reward I bestowed on myself after finally learning to swim just one year ago. ■ One might think, with my wrinkled face and gray hair, I would have instead turned to cosmetic surgery to mark my upcoming milestone birthday ― wouldn’t that make me more youthful? Wouldn’t a face-lift help attract a swain? But after a first marriage that ended in divorce and second in widowhood ― not to mention the cushy contentment I experience in my current single life ― I’ve decided not to go that chancy route. (And if the grimaces given by guys my age are a true indication of how they feel about tattoos, I may just stay happily single forever.) ■ I have never been envious of friends who chose to have their foreheads planed, their eyelids lifted or their cheeks enhanced. That’s their call. It’s the “elective” part of these elective procedures that has always put me off. Why enter a hospital willingly, I think to myself. I’ll wait until a dire discovery demands admission. ■ The anxiety of the anesthesia-free procedure I elected to have was eased because Graciela is my second #tattoo. As a longtime admirer of the art and boldness of others with #tattoos, I decided to mark my 60th birthday with a tribute to my two daughters. ■ So, I got a piece on my left bicep featuring a heart, musical notes and their names, Faith and Jill. I saw it as a way to honor my children, whom I continue to cherish and celebrate for their talents and their audacity." // Words and photo by: Elaine Soloway // #ink #inked #tattooed #tattooart #tattoolife #instatattoo #bodyart
