Tattoo and Body-Piercings
Tattoos and body-piercing are very popular all over the world. Celebrities often get tattoos and piercings to look different and exceptional. However, tattoos and piercings should be banned, especially in younger generations, because they can affect health and skin.
Although tattoos and body-piercing are highly popular, they still have negative connotations, as members of criminal groups like gangsters usually have special, group-related tattoos. Tattoos and body-piercing are also seen as a sign of rebellion. This has led many countries to urge that underage youngsters should not be allowed to get piercings and tattoos. Tattoos can also cause skin complications such as allergy, infection, and keloids. They may even lead to MRI complications in the form of burning and swelling of the skin.
From the facts above, it can be concluded that young people should not get piercings and tattoos, at least not without parental consent.
