Michael Beck

Michael Beck (senior) got a tattoo in remembrance of his brother who passed away. He had always admired his brother’s tattoos and when he was 16, he talked to his mom, and they ultimately went together to get a tattoo in honor of him. Beck went all the way to St. Louis to get the tattoo because minors can get tattoos there with a signature of a parent.

Beck believes people should get a tattoo that means something to them, not one that just seems “cool” now. He also gives this advice in regard to picking a design:  “Whatever you want to get, get it drawn out, or get a picture of it. Put it somewhere you’re going to look every day, put it as the screen on your phone, put it on your mirror or wherever you get ready in the morning. Look at it everyday, because you are going to look at it everyday.”
