There are definitely different categories of tattoos. From flash to full body art pieces, remembrances of pets, girlfriends names, things to cover up ex-girlfriends names.

There are absolutely tattoos one can get that are less likely to incur regret. It's like getting hardwood floors in your home instead of patterned or brightly colored carpet.

I see many millennials with full sleeves of flash art that means approximately nothing to to them, other than it looking cool and being very in at the moment. I think this is probably going to belong in the green carpet category.
