5 weird facts about tattoos!


1. With some people willing to do almost anything to make some money, and advertisers being desperate to reach their audience, its surprising that sponsored tattoos took this long to reach our ears.

Believe it or not, but dozens accepted the offer


2. Did you know tattooing is prohibited in American prisons? Yeah, and though is prohibited they still do it widely, and since they don’t have a professional artist inside the prision well, this are the materials they use to do them: ballpoint pens, paper clips, soot and guitar strings, ouch! 


3.For the Ainu women in Japan have tattoos of giant-sized lips on their faces is very common. Lip tattooing was seen as a mark of maturity and believed to repel evil spirits. 


4. But lets not stop talking about the Japanese! The most famous of all criminal tattoos are worn by the Japanese mafia, the Yakuza. They wear traditional designs in a full body suit that can be hidden entirely from view by clothes as an sign of their commitment to their gang!


5. And last but not least, the toy maker Mattel had introduced the Butterfly Art Barbie in 1999, which featured a butterfly tattoo on the doll’s stomach. Temporary tattoos were also provided for the doll’s owners. However, it was discontinued after receiving complaints from parents.  “But why mom, I wanna have a tattoo as well!”
