Allergic Reactions: Some individuals may be allergic to tattoo ink ingredients.
Bloodborne Diseases: If equipment used to create a tattoo has infected blood on it, you can get diseases that are spread through blood.
Hidden Skin Conditions: Tattoos can sometimes obscure signs of skin cancer or other skin conditions.
Potential Benefits:
Self-Expression: Tattoos offer a way to express oneself and can be a form of body art.
