How to get a tattoo

Have you ever wondered how a tattoo is created or how to go about getting one yourself? Tattooing in recent years has moved from something for your general anarchist and metal bands to mainstream acceptability thanks to Beckham...err, thanks.

The history of tattooing goes back to prehistoric times and has continually been used by tribes for traditional and ritualistic purposes. You can find evidence of tattooing around the world, from the familiar and stark facial tattoos of the Maori and full body suits of the Japanese to the familiar iconic tattoos favoured by sailors. Did you know that a sailor would have a crucifix tattooed on his back to prevent a flogging? Even the royalty have been partial to a tattoo or many. Tattoos up until the invention of the first electric machine in 1891 were created painstakingly by hand using needle and ink; that part hasn't changed only it is a much faster and more sophisticated process.

To many, tattooing still remains something shrouded in mystery, I know this due to the amount of strangers who prod/stroke my skin in crowded bars and slur 'ere, did it hurt?' Well of course it did, but that's only part of the story.

think before getting a tattoo is it me or is there an increasing amount of teen and college students getting tattoos nowadays? tattooing has become one of america's fastest growing categories of retail business. i've seen names, crosses, faces, as well as many other designs. then, when students go get these ridiculous tattoos, they get them on the wrong places including their necks and their backs. students are growing more and more creative with decorating themselves which leads me to think that having a tattoo is a growing trend. there are now an estimated 15,000 tattoo studios in operation. furthermore, it is estimated that at least one new studio opens daily. a well known reason students are getting "tatted up" is because the people they look up to are doing it. rappers and entertainers like lil wayne, the game, allen iverson and many others all have tattoos both visible and invisible. thirty four percent of americans with tattoos said having a tattoo has made them feel sexier. interestingly, more tattooed females (42%) feel this way than males (25%), according to picasso exports. do tattoos make a person seem tougher? according to picasso's, those with tattoos said that having a tattoo has made them feel more rebellious (29%), while others said a tattoo makes them feel more attractive (26%). it's all about fitting in. when students see others getting attention, they immediately think that having a tattoo will make them the same way. today's society has a lot of strange theories, but having a tattoo to be cool has got to be the most retarded. people with common sense should just be happy and let their personality do the talking. although having a tattoo is a popular trend, i think that people should respect their body and think about it before making crucial decisions that will affect them their whole lives. 希望对你有用呵呵。
