Tattos


Tattoos on humans are a type of decoration body modification, surveys show that 36% of 18-25 and 40% at the ages of 26 have at least one tattoo. many people who have tattoos say that ' Having a tattoo has made me more rebellious'. These days it seems like many people have tattoos, the reason for this could be because the person feels that by having a tattoo they are accepted within society or their group. However, alot of people get tattoo's for or about 'loved ones' some may get a tattoo to remember a loved one who has passed away, Another common reason for why people decide to get tattoos is for religious reasons, many people have the face of Jesus or Mary this to them is a sign of devotion to their beliefs. however alot of people do regret having a tattoo and it is not easy to get it removed or covered, an Article taken from the New york times shows how a module regrets getting an Tattoo of her fiances name on her wrists, the link below shows the full story.
