There are a few people who go through bad times. So they decide to make a specific tattoo with a message. And this message helps them to overcome their bad phase and give them the power to fight. This one is the greatest advantage among all advantages of a tattoo.
To pay tribute to those who are still alive
There are people in life that are admired a lot. And hence people feel like getting a tattoo of their name as they become their inspiration as well.

If the needles are contaminated with infected blood then, there are chances of bloodborne diseases.
Allergic Reactions
You should keep in mind if you have any sort of allergy. You might be allergic to the dyes and even after years of a tattoo, it can cause an itchy rash.
Certified artist
Make sure that the parlour and the artist are certified and are using clean tools. Before saying yes for a tattoo, check around whether there are hygiene, cleanliness and safety in the tattoo parlour.
Your lover's name
No matter whether you are in a relationship or you love someone a lot; I would suggest not writing his or her name as a tattoo. Are you sure your relationship will last forever? your emotions might be really attached but you never know till when.
