Think about your ink
Tattoos are a piece of art that people put on
their bodyʼs to epxress themselves. Although it is a
painful process to go through that isnʼt stopping some
people now that tattoos are becoming more and more
popular. These pieces of art may come with consequences
at times if they are not done properly. Some
effects it can cause is AIDS if done with dirty needles
or tools and skin cancer to name a few.
People all have their different opinions about
tattoos. Some think its trashy and unprofessional.
While others find it either attracting, cool, meaningful,
or just donʼt really care at all.
You must be cautious where you place yourtattoos
because eventually it can catch up to you later
on in life in your professional life and some jobs
wonʼt hire you if they are revealing too much.
Tattoos arenʼt bad to have if theyʼre meaningful.
A lot of people end up getting tattoos when
theyʼre younger and they later tend to regret when
they get older. You need permission from a parent to
get a tattoo if you are underaged.
Remember: If you do get one make sure itʼs
one you wonʼt regret.
