Body Art

People get tattoos and piercings as a form of self expression or for religious reasons. Piercings are an opportunity for people to wear jewelry in any place on their body rather than just the normal ones. Some people take it really extreme and get their whole face pierced because they think that it look unique. That’s the whole theory behind them though, people want to be different. Recently I got my nose pierced and I love it because it’s not something that everyone has. Personally I like piercings more than tattoos because they don’t have to stay with you if you don’t want them to. Someone going for a job interview can take out their nose piercing but they can’t simply peel off the butterfly tattoo on their neck. Some people are really dumb when it comes to tattoos such as getting them when they are drunk because they think it looks cool or if they are under pressure and trying to rebel. Those people are probably already regretting it. For the most part people get tattoos for self expression and the way it makes them feel. They love something so much and are so passionate about it that they want it drawn on their body forever and for the whole world to see. People may get tattoos for their religion, babies, marriage, deceased loved ones, or any big event in their life.
