Tattoo woes

As I have posted, I want to get tattoos at some point later in my transition.

But I have so much damn body hair. And hair removal when there are tattoos is a no no. Potential for huge pain and burns and skin damage.

So, should I just wait until I get hair removal, or should I get the tattoo I want and not worry about hair removal for that part of the body?

Sorry, I think this is more of a moan than anything constructive...

If you know where you want the tattoo, make that area a priority in the hair removal processes (laser or electrolysis). That way the area is clear later on and you can get the tat without further ado.
...I think for most of us it is a futile effort to try and put this genie back in the bottle once she has tasted freedom...
