Her husband controlled her appearance all her life

You can tell a man’s wife is unhappy if you can show me he controls her appearance.

For years, Charlotte Guttenberg had fantasized about getting tattooed. However, her husband forbade it. He already has a preconceived notion of “what a woman should look like,” and Charlotte obeyed him because she wanted to be a good wife.

“I’ve always wanted to get body art. My husband forbade me from getting tattoos. His entire strategy was to ensure that no woman got a tattoo. But I still wanted one,” Charlotte retorted.

But when her husband died ten years ago, Charlotte knew exactly what she wanted to do.

As Charlotte says of getting her first tattoo, “That was a life-defining step for me.”I have tattoos that each have a special meaning for me. They all come together to form a story.

The Guinness World Record for the senior woman with the most tattoos is presently held by Charlotte. Age-wise, she is 67. Over 92% of her body is covered. While getting her tattoos done, Charlotte met Charles Helmke, the man she would eventually marry. Helmke currently holds the Guinness World Record for the most tattoos for a senior male. It’s a coupling made in heaven!

I got my first tattoo in September 2006 as a birthday present for myself,” asserts Charlotte. I had always wanted a tattoo, but up until that point, it had not been possible.

“We met at the tattoo studio,” remembers Charles, “in November 2006 while Charlotte was getting a tattoo.” She had been sitting in the chair for some time, but it was difficult for her. That was sort of the beginning of it—I sat next to her and talked to her to help her forget about it.

About a month later, we got back in touch. In a park, we had a quick cup of coffee, and I gave her a big Hollywood kiss. After that, it was over when she followed me home.


Charlotte stated, “Despite my best efforts to conceal it, Charles rapidly attracted my interest, and that only lasted a few months!


We are able to because. The only limit is what you want; no one can have more than they want. “That is up to the individual,” they respond. We both wear body suits with an Oriental and Spiritual theme, despite the fact that they are utterly different from one another. Each of us wants our tattoos to tell a specific story. It seems like we both have a lot to say.


Especially on social media, some offensive and insulting comments have been made, but we both believe that says more about the offender than it does about us. Because many people are against tattoos for religious and cultural reasons, as we have stated, we don’t want to impose our artwork on anyone. If you wish to, please take a look at it. If not, don’t. There is no need for us to respond further.
