阅读理解 Before you get a tattoo(文身) you know that you want a tattoo, so what comes next? You have to know the laws in your area, and make yourself aware of the health problems．If you don't make a right decision, you may regret what you have done．Here, I put together some needed information for the tattoo-hungry friends． The most important thing you need to consider before getting tattooed is how your parents feel about it．If your parents don't care, nothing else will matter．Ask your parents what they think and how they feel．If they don't agree, listen carefully and do as they wish． Sure, the tattoo flash that you see on body may not be unique to you．Some takes a picture that he or she likes and modifies it to his or her personality． Do you know the risks? There are risks related to tattooing besides the obvious short-term pain．Dirty tattoos do exist and they can be deadly．There are always risks of allergic reaction(过敏反映) and diseases when you have a tattoo．You can reduce the risk by knowing about the health risks and what should be done to keep you safe before getting tattooed． And finally, I don't have a tattoo myself just because I do think it's harmful especially for us students when we are growing up．Anyway, it's not cool for me and I never think personality can be expressed by maltreating(虐待) our bodies． |
