Tattoos have become very popular, and tons of people, young and old, have covered themselves in this permanent form of art. Tattoos can be a lot of fun to have and to get, despite some uncomfortableness. People can put a whole lot of meaning into a tattoo or no meaning at all. They can be used to memorialize someone, they can make someone feel more confident, or they can just be for fun. In every case, though, tattoos should be done safely.

Tattoos are very permanent, that's kind of the whole point of them. People are stuck with their tattoos forever. They can be removed by laser or covered but that is expensive and painful. People need to get their tattoos right the first time to avoid a lifetime of embarrassment. This is not a hard thing to do, but people still do not do it, resulting in some serious tattoo fails. Tattoos can fail by being designed poorly, executed poorly, or both.
