The word tattoo is said to have two major derivations from the Polynesian word 'ta' which means striking something and the Tahitian word 'tatau' which means 'to mark something'.

The history of tattoo began over 5000 years ago and is as diverse as the people who wear them.Inserting colored materials beneath the skins surface creates tattoos. The first tattoos probably were created by accident. Perhaps someone had a small wound, and rubbed it with a hand that was dirty with soot and ashes from the fire. Once the wound had healed, they saw that a mark stayed Permanently.In recent years, there has been a growing fascination with tattooing, and the immense popularity of tattoos themselves, but the practice has not left much of a historical record. Before, tattoos were usually used as markings that showed ranking in Society. Today, tattoos are more of a fashion statement.

If you are sure you want one, go ahead and get it. But before you do, here are a
few helpful tips.

Sensitive Tattoo Areas
As you might expect, the outside of your body- your back, the outside of your legs,the outsides of your arms are generally going to be some of the easier parts, and the insides of the body - the groin, the chest, the ribcage, the insides of the arms, the insides of the legs are typically going to be a little more tender.

Keep New Tattoos Clean and Dry
Tattoo aftercare is something that varies pretty heavily from artist to artist - I'd mostly encourage you to do what your artist encourages, unless you have a lot of work and have something that works for you. The main thing is that you keep it clean and dry, most people's bodies being healthy and left alone, a tattoo will heal.
