One of the most common reasons people return to a tattoo studio years later is the desire to rewrite the past. This is exactly what TV host Carson Daly spoke about on the Today show, where, in a conversation with Jenna Bush Hager, he recalled how, right in the middle of a session in Hell’s Kitchen, he realized it was time to hide an old inscription on his ankle. The story became a telling example for tattoo culture as a whole: the name of an ex-girlfriend, once tattooed in a burst of emotion, turned into a veiled drawing of a crab with an open knife.

A tattoo cost Catalina White her WWE contract
In the world of professional wrestling, a tattoo has long ceased to be just a skin decoration — for some athletes, it becomes a marker of identity, and for employer companies, a subject of strict control.

Chipotle brings back tattoo promotion featuring Wiz Khalifa
The Chipotle Mexican Grill chain is once again launching its hyped “Tatted Like a Chipotle Bag” promotion, which last year went far beyond the food industry and became a true cultural event. On Friday from 3:00 PM to 4:00 PM, customers will receive a second entrée for free with the purchase of the first — and you don’t have to be a “full sleeve” tattooed person to participate. It is enough to show a real tattoo, a temporary drawing, or even a sketch made with a marker on your skin. The format, which was originally conceived as a playful nod to street aesthetics, has turned into one of the most discussed marketing moves of the year.
