I don&#x27;t expect much impact. People who do not want their tattoo now did want it permanently at an earlier stage. Back then, the permanence was part of the appeal. The implied message of commitment is the selling point, not the direct visual effect.<p>This is very noticeable in the tattoo decision tree: it goes &quot;so I really want a tattoo, where do I want it and which motive?&quot; instead of &quot;so I really want a picture of X on my arm, do I get it painted or do I get it tattooed?&quot;
