 Sering kali masyarakat menyalah artikan tentang tato dan piercing. Kebanyakan masyarakat saat ini merasa bahwa tato dan piercing adalah hal yang pantas untuk ditentang dan dihindari serta para orang bertato dan bertindik atau yang biasa disebut kolektor ini pun mendapat image yang negative dari masyarakat. Padahal sejarah tato dan piercing yang pada kenyataannya adalah kebudayaan lama masyarakat dunia bahkan di Indonesia sendiri kepada para masyarakat.

 Memang bukti-bukti sejarah tato ini kurang begitu jelas, namun para ahli mengambil kesimpulan bahwa seni tato sudah ada sejak 12.000 tahun SM. Jaman dulu tato digunakan untuk semacam ritual bagi suku-suku kuno seperti Maori, Inca, Ainu, Polynesians, dan lain-lain. Konon menurut sejarahnya, tato pada awalnya ditemukan di Mesir pada waktu pembangunan The Great Pyramids. Dan kemudian orang-orang Mesir memperluas kerajaan mereka dikuti dengan menyebarnya seni tato. Perkembangan peradaban dari Crete, Yunani, Persia, dan Arabia semakin memperluas bentuk seni tersebut. sekitar tahun 2000 SM, seni tato menyebar ke Tiongkok. Dan kata tato sendiri berasal dari bahasa Tahitian yaitu “tutu”, yang berarti “tanda/menandakan sesuatu”.

 Di Indonesia sendiri acap kali para pencinta tato ini menjadi kaum marjinal. Apalagi ketika jaman Orde Baru dan munculnya PETRUS (Penembak Misterius) yang memburu orang bertato. Saat itu orang yang bertato dianggap sebagai preman, criminal, penjahat, dan sebagainya. Sehingga waktu itu banyak orang yang bertato ingin menghapus seluruh tato yang ada ditubuhnya agar terhindar dari Petrus.

Namun dalam perkembangannya sampai saat ini stigma masyarakat tersebut mulai berkurang, meskipun masih ada. Tato mulai dianggap sebagai fesyen, karena tato bisa mempercantik dan menambah rasa percaya diri seseorang atau sebagai aksesoris tubuh. Komunitas tato dan piercing juga mulai banyak. Ditambah lagi dengan maraknya studio-studio tato dan di piercing di beberapa kota besar seperti Bali, Jakarta, Bandung, dan Jogjakarta.

Tato adalah bagian dari seni, bukan lagi untuk dunia kekerasan dan kriminalitas. Tato sebuah ajang ekspresi seseorang, baik si artist (pembuat tato) atau pecinta tato sendiri. Layaknya lukisan, tato sendiri mempunyai makna dibalik sebuah gambarnya. Dan adalah tugas para pecinta tato dan piercing untuk membuat
dan mempertahankan image postif di kalangan masyarakat.

 Naturalistic Tattoos
An attempt is made to portray the Tattoo(s) in a realistic style, or the 'natural' form. The portrayal, involving minute detailing, shading and perspective, is done in such a way that imparts a tattoo design as much realism as possible. With their cost a little on the higher side, naturalistic tattoos more popularly comprise of faces of Native Americans and religious leaders.

A tattoo is a marking made by inserting indelible ink into the dermis layer of the skin to change the pigment for decorative or other reasons. Tattoos on humans are a type of decorative body modification, while tattoos on animals are most commonly used for identification or branding. The first written reference to the word, "tattoo" (or Samoan "Tatau") appears in the journal of Joseph Banks, the naturalist aboard Cook's ship "The Endeavour", in 1769: "I shall now mention the way they mark themselves indelibly, each of them is so marked by their humor or disposition".

Tattooing   
    has been practiced for centuries worldwide. The Ainu, the indigenous people of Japan, traditionally wore facial tattoos. Today one can find Berbers of Tamazgha (North Africa), M?ori of New Zealand, Arabic people in East-Turkey and Atayal of Taiwan with facial tattoos.

Despite some taboos surrounding tattooing, the art continues to be popular in many parts of the world.
