Does anyone know if any studies have been done regarding the harmful side-effects of tattoos?
If so, a quick summary of the results would be appreciated!
Thanks,

As you know, when you get a tattoo done, they insert a needle inside your skin. That way it will never come off. The ink is squirted into the skin and it permanantly stays there.
As time goes on, your tattoo might send poisonous ink to the rest of your body, causing skin cancer. Some tests say it can cause Hepatitis A and B, and even HIV. I have no idea how that came up, but i did some research and thats what it said.

The hepatitis and HIV probably come from parlors not changing out or decontaminating their needles after they use them.
