There are two kinds of tattoo chairs in the game, The Ink-in-Comfort 3000, and The Digital Tattoo Applicator. Placing The Ink-in-Comfort 3000 on a community lot will generate a tattoo artist NPC with tattooed arms and heavy eyeliner. Having either machine at home allows premade Sims to access the tattoo interface of Create a Sim. Sims with very little experience tattooing can sometimes draw stick figures instead of the intended design.
