Mr. Inkwells Study Finds Women Are Getting More Tattoos Than Men

Los Angeles, CA, July 18, 2018 --(PR.com)-- Local Tattoo Shop, Mr. Inkwells, has done a study of the local tattoo scene in Southern California and found that now more women than men are getting tattoos. Finally answering the question people have been asking “Who has more tattoos, Men or Women?”

The popularity of tattoos in America right now is at an all time high. “Over 40% of Adults have at least one tattoo, and of 75% of those who have tattoos have multiple tattoos,” according to http://www.historyoftattoos.net.

Among millenials tattoos are even more popular, “with about 75% over the age of eighteen having a tattoo or more.” (http://www.historyoftattoos.net). With more and more people continuing to get tattoos that percentage is sure to increase as time goes by.

Some areas of the country have even higher rates. For example in Southern California where Mr. Inkwells is located, They say about “80-90% of people ages 18-34 have at least one tattoo, if not many more.”

For years the world of tattoos in the United States has been dominated by men. However, times have changed, as tattoos become more of the societal norm, and more and more women are getting inked.

Men in the USA do have more tattoos as a whole, meaning that if you took all the adults of any age in the country more men would have tattoos than women (https://www.statisticbrain.com/tattoo-statistics/).

The Mr. Inkwells study focused on who is getting more tattoos today. What percent of men and women are getting tattoos is 2018?

This number may surprise some but according to the Mr. Inkwells Classy Tattoos study “close to 80% of the people walking into a tattoo shop to get inked in 2018 were women."

That's right, if this trend keeps up the ladies will overcome the lead of men in the next decade. Erasing a nearly seventy year head-start.
