I'm a teenager and I'm thinking of getting my first tattoo. What do I need to know?

You should consider your own personal feelings about tattoos before making the decision to get one. Consider how you feel about pain, permanence, and what kind of tattoo you would like. Think carefully about what you want to express with your tattoo and whether it is something that will make sense in the future. Make sure you are comfortable with the design and artist you choose, as well as any aftercare instructions. Finally, remember to research the risks associated with tattoos and ask yourself if you are ready for them.
