Benefits
Drawbacks
It's worth bearing in mind that if you are getting tattoos to go for a more 'thug' appeal it must suit your personality. I know a guy who is covered in tattoos of skulls, gothic butterflies etc. He is a reserved, feeble guy, so it looks ridiculous.
Tattoos Done Correctly:
The geometric patterns, contrasted with the skulls and other more masculine imagery look fantastic. The inkwork is also extremely well done - he hasn't cut costs. Obviously, it helps that he's top 0.1% PSL, lol.
Tattoos Done Incorrectly:
Whilst this aesthetic might appeal to Comic-Con types, it is going to alienate a lot of people because it is so in-your-face. Going for a tattoo in any colour other than (mostly) black, in my opinion, is a mistake, as they really don't age well.

I was considering getting tattoos for a long time, but have ultimately decided against it (for now), due to the drawbacks I have mentioned.
If you go for it:
- Makes you look lower inhibition
- Makes you look more NT (generally)
- Many women will find you more attractive
- Good conversation piece
- Can integrate with your aesthetic and of course increase PSL
Drawbacks
- Can look lower class
- Can alienate you from certain circles (many might look down upon you for having tattoos, few will look down upon you for not having them)
- Looks non-NT if done incorrectly
- Unappealing to a proportion of high-quality women
- Not ideal in a corporate/professional setting

If you go for it:
- Ask yourself if you'd be comfortable displaying it in a variety of situations - not just to women on Tinder/in bars, but your family, friends, business contacts, and new people. If the answer is yes, great.
- Invest in quality - anytime someone cuts costs it is obvious. I know many attractive people who have ruined themselves with cheap workmanship.
