Tattoo Decision Making: An Art and a Science

To ink or not to ink, that is the question among Simonites these days!

I couldn’t help but notice that tattoo decisions are more important to my users than deciding on a college or marriage. Maybe people are of the belief that you can always decide to transfer colleges or spouses, but a butterfly on your butt is forever. Whatever the reason, this isn’t a decision Simonites are making lightly.

You should check out my list of the top factors Simonites have been considering when deciding if they should get a tattoo. Do you agree with these factors or do you think other factors are more important?

Top Tattoo Factors Used With My Decision Tools

1.  Appearance

2. Cost

3. Size

4. Pain

5. Long-term

Online Tattoo Decision Results

Here’s where I want to play bookie for a minute. Before reading the results below (no cheating!), close your eyes and take a bet about the percentage of users who decided to get a tattoo versus the percentage who chose not to (and the percentage who decided to wait). Let me know if the actual results come as a surprise to you.

Decide not to get a tattoo….48%
Decide to get a tattoo…………46%
Decide to wait………………….6%

Now, what do you think the odds are that of that 46%, some devoted user will opt to get a cute, little tattoo of yours truly? That will be the day I can retire…
