Know the safety facts before you get inked.
Tattoos and the artists that create them have been growing in popularity for some time. About 29% of Americans have at least one tattoo according to a recent Harris poll. That number increases to 47% if you’re only talking about millennials, or those aged 18-35; also an age group more likely to have more than one tattoo. Tattoos are so popular that the Cow Palace will host its annual Body Art Expo this weekend that will be dedicated to tattoo contests, exhibits, and of course, getting tattooed.
