About This Quiz

Tattoos are a form of body modification in which a design is made by inserting different inks and pigments into the dermis of the skin by inserting ink. The first written appearance of tattoos appeared in the early 18th century and at that time was used serve purposes including rank, decorations for bravery, a mark of fertility, religion and spiritual devotion as well as pledges for love.

Over the last few decades, this once frowned upon and taboo practice has become more popular and has gained acceptance by people from all walks of life. A poll in 2012 claims that one in every five people have at least one tattoo, 40% of which are below the age of 29 years of age.

For some people, getting a tattoo is just a form of decoration, and they are usually open to getting any subject matter tattooed on their bodies. For others, getting a tattoo has to have some meaning to that person, whether it be their life's motto, a reference to a loved one, or something else.

Can this quiz correctly guess what your next tattoo is going to be? Will it be something as common as your zodiac sign, or will it be something unique? If you would like to find out, then you should take this quiz!
