Even the Red Cross is getting in on celebrating National Tattoo Day, by reminding people that in most states, you can donate blood on the same day that get a tattoo.
Massillon-based Redtail Tattoo artist Jason Haney confirmed to 3News that holds true in Ohio, so long as you got your tattoo from a state-registered tattoo shop.
He said you may be required to show proof that your artist works at a registered facility, and your tattoo shop should be able to provide that for you.
Whether you're getting inked for the first time today, or have a whole back piece and sleeve you've been working on for years, we want to see your ink.
