'''Tattooing''' is a hidden [[skill]] in ''[[The Sims 3: Ambitions]]''. Limited features will also be made available for the base game through a patch released around the same time as ''Ambitions''.

Tattoos can be removed. 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.
▲The tattoo system can be a powerful creative tool for players. Tattoos can placed on a Sim's upper, lower, or full back, or their neck, ankle, chest, stomach, wrist, shoulder, bicep, or forearm. Sims can't have tattoos on their legs. Players are be able to apply multiple tattoos in up to five layers, scale them, change the colors, and even modify opacity.<ref name="Changing Your Sims">[http://www.thesims3.com/ep2_blog_mar30 Changing Your Sims' Neighborhood, One Job at a Time]</ref> Players can upload and share these tattoos on the [[TheSims3.com|Exchange]], giving the community yet another creative outlet.

Oddly, all options are open to amateur tattoo artists from the outset of the skill track. There are, however, a number of 'failure' tattoos that look like stick figures or children's drawings.
 
==Trivia==
In both ''[[The Sims 2]]'' and ''[[The Sims 3]]'' players can purchase a poster called [[Bethany and Miranda]] which depicts two sisters who opened a tattoo parlour.▼

Tattoos can be removed. There are two kinds of tattoo chairs in the game; one that a Sim can use to add tattoos to another Sim, and one that can be used without help from another Sim.
