Nice Tattoo?!

     Spring Break is on its way, again.  Awesome!

     Enjoy it responsibly.

     There is a list of the greatest things to accomplish on Spring Break, and getting a tattoo is one of them.  Increasingly, skin art has become a global trend.  There are parlors everywhere. You can even find places with a buy one tattoo get one on your girlfriend for free.  After throwing back a few, or just getting caught up in the DUBSTEP-like atmosphere of Spring Break, your judgment will lighten up.  When it is tattoo show time you could end up getting the ultra-sarcastic, “nice tattoo.”

     Don’t get a tattoo.  Personally, women are already works of art, so don’t damage the goods.  Guys should stay as clean cut as possible.  Have you seen an ironically, tatted-up police officer, with full sleeves, neck, and facial tags?  No comment, huh?

     Among other reasons, here is a great reason not to get a tattoo during SPRING BREAK 2013:

   “Allergic reaction to the tattoo pigments is one of the most common problems associated with tattooing. Infections also can pose a serious threat to health. Along with localized bacterial infections, there have been reports of people being infected with syphilis and hepatitis B and C due to non-sterile tattooing practices.” Dr. Michi Shinohara, a clinical assistant professor of dermatology at the University of Washington in Seattle (American Academy of Dermatology, FRIDAY, March 1 HealthDay News).

     Why not get a tattoo?

                                Skin cancer

                                Moles

                                Staphyloccocus aureus

        Squamos cell carcinoma

S. aureus infection resulting from ink pigment of the tattoo.

“…choose a design that you can enjoy for hopefully the rest of your life. Tattoo removal is costly and painful, so try to avoid any inking on spring break that you will later regret. (http://ezinearticles.com/?Spring-Break-Tattoos&id=1036165) (Tracy Falbe, publisher of Destination Tattoo)

     Recommendations:

• Only go to a professional tattoo parlor and to an artist who has been licensed under state requirements.

•Visit a dermatologist.

•Patients with a chronic skin condition such as psoriasis, eczema or a tendency toward keloid scarring should check with a dermatologist before getting a tattoo.

•Never get a tattoo over a mole.

     Yes, there is a list of the greatest things to accomplish on Spring Break, and you know getting a tattoo is one of them.  Make a smart decision, and have an awesome Spring Break.
