lilmonkey: I know that there are some religions require tattoos more than there are religions that don't allow them...and then in those religions you have both types of people, both sides...some against tattoos and piercings and those who have nothing against it...Christianity for instance, is one that seems to be very two-sided...

I'd imagine that Sikhism prohibits it, as they believe that one should not modify their body in any way (including cutting hair).
