Editor’s letter

Interest and popularity of tattoos has increased in the last decade and approximately 4 out of 10 millennials have tattoos in the USA alone. Weather the tattoo is a means for self-expression or just a drunken mistake on holiday, there is no denying that they are becoming a mass consumer phenomenon.

This website explores the very depths of tattoos; Where they came from, why we get them and how we celebrate them. Including; the origin of tattooing and how it has changed as both a procedure and profession, the relationship of tattooed people and their interests. It is an illustrated account of the tattoo world.
