They are not that hard to remove these days. If you stick with a black ink tattoo and don't get anything huge, and locate it somewhere on your torso (closer to heart will make it easier to remove), you could have it for a couple decades and remove it before you get old and wrinkled.

The cost and pain of removal has come down too. I didn't realize this until recently when I learned that Pete Davidson has had a bunch of tattoos removed and they are truly gone -- you can't see them at all. I didn't realize it was possible to remove them that completely. But especially if you aren't talking about like a full color sleeve, it's apparently not a huge deal.

I think a lot of younger people are aware of this and don't view them as totally permanent as a result, which makes more people get them. I feel like it's very common now to have one or two tasteful, meaningful tattoos if you are in your 20s and 30s, and I wouldn't be surprised if many of these people removed them in their 50s. When you think of it that way, it's really not that different than a lot of other fashion or beauty trends that younger people embrace and older people abhor -- eyebrow piercings, candy-colored hair, etc. Yes, more permanent than those are but not totally permanent. Tattoos are really not forever anymore.[/quote]

You clearly never had a tattoo or a tattoo removal. So funny. [/quote]
