This week, colleges nationwide are observing Tattoo Awareness Week, a program designed to teach students about the art, history, and safety of tattoos.
Workshops led by medical professionals explain the importance of sterile equipment and proper aftercare, while cultural experts highlight tattoo traditions from Maori tribes, Japanese irezumi, and African scarification practices.
Students are also engaging in creative sessions, using temporary tattoo designs to learn about symbolism and self-expression.
Organizers say the campaign encourages young people to view tattoos not just as fashion, but as a mix of culture, responsibility, and identity.
