In ancient time tattos were mostly used for spiritiual purposes but these days tattooing has become a raging fashion statement for both men and women..
A tattoo is a marking on the body by inserting some kind of ink into the layers of skin...
Tattoos are temporary and permanent. permanent tattoos used as form of cosmetics.It includes moles, enhancement of eyebrow liners and decorating any part of the body.
tattooing involves insertion of pigments, dyes and some kind of inoragnic materials by a specially designed tattoo machine with needle.

I'm just starting to appreciate tattoo as an art, and now I'm seriously thinking of getting one.. though I still have to think on what the design would be cause I really don't want to regret having a tattoo in 10 or 20 years... lol... And I still have to figure out how can I not get scared of the pain. hehehe.

Not that I like it, but I have an interest of getting one, It is permanent so I think that I should have a very meaningful design or what for my tattoo ^_^

Hi tyronie: I think i won't make me a tattoe considering that I'm 21 years old, maybe that's because i'm a nerd and i can't imagine myself with a tatto on my skin. Even with that If i must chose a tatto i woul put me the equal sign on my right hand just as Chris Martin. Lol. XD

Hi Ammushri
I do not like tattoos because, once it is done, it will stay permanently and we can't erase it. Happy mylotting

"Tattoos are temporary and permanent."
I agree. It's very important whether it's temporary or permanent. If it's temporary (stamps), it's fine, even Amusement Parks stamp their customers for entrance purposes. As long as it's not permanent, it's acceptable ; permanent tattoos are very stylish and "manly" but it increases the possibility of skin cancer. Many girls and I dislike "drawn" skin because it emerges a feeling of violence (gangs) and unsafe.
"mostly used for spiritual purposes"
Yes, they were, and usually for evil spiritual ritual purposes.
"by a specially designed tattoo machine with needle"
O, that pain is unbearable. :( However, if a criminal uses extortion, I might get a tattoo. ;D

Yes I do enjoy tattoos. I think that tattoos that have a meaning or something that people would want to know more about can be a great way of sparking interest in people in subjects such as spirituality or finding oneself. When people see a tattoo that interests them they ask what it means or if it stands for anything so you get a chance to portray ideas to people.

Do I like tattoos? Oh yeah, it's one of those things that have been on my to-do list for ages now.
I guess it is a fashion statement and kind of permanent. I say 'kind of' because nowadays there are surgical procedures that can help you get rid of these tattoos.
Still, I feel it is a big step. And there so many factors I would need to consider.
But, the next time the urge to rebel or 'do something fun' hits me, I'm heading straight to a tattoo parlor!

hi ammushri, i do not like tattos, and i will never tatto on my body, but i like some tattos on someone, such as a butterfly on one woman's chest or waist. but some tattos are so horrible on someone. some even terrified me, and tatto is not very popular in china. most parents do not like their kids tattoed.

Neither like or dislike. But in general,anyone who has tattoos would be considered as a bad guy. Is there anyone agree with such opinion?

I don't mind some tattoos. The tattoos that actually have a meaning behind them, in my mind are much better than some of the tattoos that people get today. If I were to ever get one, it would have a strick meaning behind it. It would have to be something I'd want to have for my lifetime.

I don't like tattoos at all. I think it is painful and I don't like it. I even don't think it makes me look better. Sometimes I even think the people who have tattoos are not very good people. If you don't like your tattoo, it is too difficult to remove it.
I love China

I know people who have them and they love them. I am happy that they like them, but personally I have never been fond of them and I would not get one myself, I have never dated a guy who has had any but then again I have been married to the same guy for the past 20 years. But my husband talked about getting a tattoo once and I told him I would not like it if he did that.

I think some tattoos are pretty, while some on women just are not attractive. I do have one tattoo on my foot that I do regret and will probably some day get it removed. Until then I am stuck with it and will just have to live with a poor decision that I made.
