<div align=justify>Tattoos have been around for centuries. From ancient kings and tribal members, to celebrities like Tommy Lee, founding member of Supernova, people from all walks of life and cultures are getting tattoos. In 2002, it was estimated 1 out of 8 of Americans have at least one tattoo and that number seems to be rising every day. Tattoos are a becoming big business. Tattoo artists take their work very seriously. Like the artist, it takes many hours of practice to aquire this skill. There are many different and amazing tattoos. Some may be very simple and small while others may cover very large areas with many intrecate details. To many, their tattoos have a very deep or spirtual meanings. However, the choice to get a tattoo should not be taken lightly. It's a life time decision. If you think you may have a totally different attitude or lifestyle 5 or 10 years from now, it's best to take a couple of weeks to decide what kind of tattoo you would like or if it's right for you. Removal requires surgery and can be costly and painful. Am I saying not to get a tattoo? No! Just make your decision carefully. It's not wise to go into a tattoo parlor, flip threw a few pages and make a hastey decision. If you are having a hard time deciding what kind of tattoo you would like, it's best to check out different tattoo parlors and web sites. You might be surprised what you find. Tattoos are an extension of yourself and your beliefs. I love my tattoo and am always being complimented and asked about it.
