Despite having several tattoos on his body, Ozzy Osbourne refuses to tattoo his face and head. He believes it makes him look dirty

Ozzy Osbourne discovered that he has limits when it comes to tattoos, now that he’s older.

The Black Sabbath star displays several tattoos on his body, but speaking to the US radio station Boneyard Channel, the rocker revealed that he refuses to be tattooed on his face or head because he believes it makes people look “dirty”.

“I would never do that,” explained the 72-year-old man, who is battling Parkinson’s disease. “Anything above the collar must be stopped. To be honest, it makes you look dirty.”

He went on to share that he now feels more pain than ever when inserting the needle, and confessed that he had to abandon plans to get a full sleeve tattoo on his arm.

“They think that as you get older, it hurts more. When I started using this shit sleeve, it looked like I was too old, stop, ”admitted TV personality husband and music manager Sharon Osbourne. “I was in my 50s and I was like what the hell are you doing.”

“When he took my elbows, I was like, what are you doing? What are you paying this idiot to do?”
