I am a teacher and I have a tatoo on my ankle. When I first got my teaching job, I asked my supervisor about wear capri pants since it would expose my tatoo. He said as long as it is nothing vulgar, it is fine. My tatoo is a flower band around my ankle.
It is always good to ask what is the code of ethics for dressing professionally.  |
This is kind of off topic, but one of the women I work with (she's an LISW and works as a Social Worker/Counselor) had a mastectomy a few years back. Instead of having reconstructive surgery, she had the area on her chest (over the scars and above) covered with an elaborate tattoo of flowers and leaves. When she wears a shirt with a v-neck, a lot of the tattoo shows. Once I found out the reason for her tattoo, I thought it was a really cool thing to do. It really shows how she tried to make something good out of something bad, and turn the scars into something beautiful.
