Judaism says no tattoos; it also prohibits all piercings except earrings.

That's hardly a universal interpretation among Jews.  More common than among Catholics, but there's extensive debate in both circles over whether Leviticus 19:28 relates to blasphemous tattoos, or all of them.

I read it as prohibiting tattoos of all kinds.
