How a tattoo is made? A tattoo is a design that is permanently etched in the skin using needles and ink. The word tattoo is derived from the Tahitian term "tatua," which means "to mark." Tattoos have been displayed by people of all cultures for centuries, but they have only recently gained social acceptance in the United States. Tattoo Tattooing has been around since ancient times and its presence in our mainstream society is not going to fade away anytime soon. In 3 percent of American households today, at least one of their members has one or more tattoos. At least 12 million Americans have one tattoo.
