Where will I get my tattoo??????
Sadly this coronavirus is making it impossible to get tattoos. Body art studios are closed, and jails are not accepting new customers, actually they’re showing the door to existing ones.
I could definitely understand the closure of hair salons and barbershops, but tattoo parlors? Body art is a way for expressing oneself in a unique way. If that is suppressed, more safe rooms will need to be provided, and more mental health professionals hired.
So what’s going to be if we can’t get a haircut before Pesach and we’ll look like a hillbilly come Sefira? Will there be a heter to get a haircut even on Chal Hamoed, should the gzaira be lifted? There are so many scenarios and shailos that is making me feel uncomfortable and nervous. This virus is playing with my emotions.
calm down We are all in this together
People are sick and your caring about an extra few weeks of hair growth. Unbelievable
