Everyone should be given the freedom to express themselves however they want. 

Whether that be by the way they dress, act, or even if it has to do with some ink on their skin. 

Tattoos can let us express ourselves and make our individuality stand out.

Putting some ink on skin shouldn’t be something looked down upon, but instead celebrated or because it shows how committed  people are in the sense it will remain on their skin forever. 

They are more than just permanent designs. Once you get  a tattoo it becomes a part of you.

Getting a tattoo shouldn’t be something you’re forced to not do,  it should be something that you want and should have the right to do, even if you are of still in your teens. 

Many argue that teenage brains aren’t fully developed and that they’re not mature enough to get tattoos, but there are also legal adults that have gone under the needle and have regretted it. 

It doesn’t matter how old you are when you get a tattoo, you still risk the fact of regretting it. 

 So who’s to say that all teenagers aren’t mature as adults when some adults themselves are always getting tattoos and then regretting it. 

Not all teenagers should be characterized as indecisive, incompetent, pubescent beings, just because some are.

Tattoos have been around for years and they’re not going anywhere any time soon. 

Sure, some people have and still associate tattoos with having a rebellious and criminal-like appearance, but a lot has changed in the past couple of years. 

People now have a completely different outlook on tattoos than they did in the 90s or 80s, especially young people of this generation. 

Ink has gotten trendy, more socially acceptable. 

Tattoos can capture moments of something, or someone, and they can be a great reminder of memories, and daily inspiration. 

Most people seem to think that if you’re getting a permanent design on your skin it should be a well thought out process I’m not saying it shouldn’t, but it doesn’t necessary have to be something that’s been on your mind since your childhood. 

Tattoos are fun and as long as you like it and know that you’ll like it in the future  don’t let the fact that it doesn’t have a very meaningful meaning stop. 

Lastly, tattoos aren’t always permanent. If you change your mind, you can get advance lazer tattoo removal. It will only  take a few visits and has minimal side effects.

Tattoos are a lovely form of art that express who you are and can be removed if that’s what you want.
