Richard Huff, 51, is covered in tattoos—over 240 of them, with 85% of his body inked, including his face. A proud father of five and husband, Richard expresses himself through body art, but strangers often judge him harshly based on his appearance.
Despite the criticism, Richard is a devoted family man. His wife Marita, who initially judged him by his looks, now calls him a loving husband and an incredible stepfather to her three children. He attends PTA meetings, supports his kids’ activities, and proudly bears their names and even his daughter’s lips tattooed on his body.
Still, online commenters often mock him. One said, “Does he really need tattoos on his face like that?” But others defend him: “He’s a good father. Let him be.”
Richard says the hate doesn’t change who he is. “We’re happy. Our kids are happy.
That’s all that matters,” he said. “Tattoos don’t make me a bad father—they give my kids a different view of the world.”
