Body Modifications in Japan

My friend, from Japan says he would get a tattoo, but he would wait until he was older and had a good job... He says that he doesn't think he'd be able to get a job as, say, a teacher if he had a tattoo. We were talking about how I have 2 tattoos, one on my back and one on my neck and he said that they were okay, because I could cover those up, but something more noticeable may keep me from getting a job... I told him that I am planning on getting more...
also, for body piercings... they are very expensive in Japan, compared to Japan. Whenever my friends come over from Japan, they want me to take them to get their belly buttons pierced.
When I go to Japan, I want them to take me and get horimono(trad jap tattoo)
 
During my visit to Japan, it all depends on where you are at.. Some places you would see plenty of peircings try Yoyogi or Harajuku.. But I never really did find many tattoo's.
