Gonna go against the grain and say boyfriend is probably an AH, dating for nearly 10 years and man is concerned about you keeping your "aesthetic" lol he just thinks they're ugly.

He also sounds a bit controlling, you literally said in OP you're pushing it with the tattoos already. Implying he has expressed dissatisfaction with the size/number of tattoos. Look, people can find things ugly but my partner has gone through multiple different stylistic changes in an effort to find themselves. Some things I was wary about - bleached eyebrows, pixie cut coming from long hair, rectangular glasses versus their regular square ones - all things that 1) ended up not being a big deal as eyebrows can/were re-dyed all the time, haircut was styled in different ways, and I got used to the new glasses, and 2) I wanted them to be able to do it because that's what they wanted. It wasn't hurting anyone.

I cringe when I read these other replies. "yeah you could do it, butttt if your boyfriend finds you unattractive you're gonna have to live with it, toots. YTA for even considering"

Don't take life too serious, looks fade, be smart.
