Student Special: Considering a tattoo? Invest in quality work you'll feel proud to carry with you forever

College life is all about branching out and having new experiences. For many students, it may be the first time they’ve contemplated getting a tattoo.

But it’s important to remember two inescapable truths: unlike trends, tattoos are permanent and, when done well, they cost. So, the rule of thumb is: invest in quality work that you will feel proud to carry with you forever.
