Tattoos

Tattoos are the most common example of self-mutilation, in the name of ‘art’. It is very easy to get caught up in the hype when celebrities get new tattoos and we just have to run off to the nearest tattoo parlour to add to our art and we just cannot wait to show it off to all our friends.

As with alcohol and drugs, one could become addicted to tattoos too and sooner or later you run out of space on your body to put more tattoos. When I thought about getting a tattoo to look cool, I reminded myself of the fact that I had a dream of a picture pretty wedding and a tattoo would really spoil the soft, feminine look on my wedding photos forever.

A tattoo is a permanent mark or design made on your skin with pigments inserted through pricks into your skin's top layer.
