Over the long weekend (a lot of time spent on the beach), I had seen many people with their various. Some of the tattoos that I saw were nice and understated while some were obnoxious and loud. Some tattoos might look cool when these people are young and spending their days at the beaches and parties but what happens when they have to become adults; when they need to get a real job and start a family. Tattoos don't go away. Are those same tattoos going to still be cool when they are in their 60s or 70s? The guy that gets his arms completely covered in tattoos might look cool when he's got the muscles to show them off but what happens when he gets old and the muscles are gone and all that is left is sagging tattooed skin? Or the girl that gets a butterfly tattooed on her breast when she is 19 and when she hits retirement age that tattoo is down to her waist. I'm not trying to tell people that tattoos are wrong and that they shouldn't do them but I am saying that since tattoos are permanent, people who get them need to think a little more long term before making that decision.
