Are tattoos good for us?

Nowadays, people express many different reasons for getting various forms of body decoration. Some of them are a personal way of expression, while others decide to decorate their bodies as a way of commemorating an important fact in their lives.

Supporters of tattoos say that a tattoo can express your personality and your beliefs. Apart from a good or bad design, tattoos can also be a great reminder of someone or something. Another use of tattoos is that they can efficiently cover scars, which are made by an accident or an extended surgery. 

Opponents of tattoos say that getting a tattoo may involve some health risks because many people get their tattoos outside of a professional studio, and this means that the possibility to get dangerous diseases is higher. Another negative point of view, is that tattoos can have a negative impact when you try to obtain a job. Even if you choose one of the removal processes, you will still have a scar there.

In conclusion, these are the main pros and cons of getting a tattoo. In my own opinion, they allow you to express yourself in a very original way. On the other  hand, they can have a negative impact on your life.
