Tattoo USA: One-Third Of Americans Have Ink As Industry Projected To Hit $4 BillionAlmost one-third of American adults are permanently inked, a new Pew Research Center poll said Tuesday, pointing to increasing popularity of tattoos among people of all genders, races and political ideologies, which is expected to push the industry to a whopping $3.9 billion by 2030.

Women are more likely to have tattoos than men, the data shows—27% of men have tattoos compared to 38% of women who admitted to getting inked, including 56% of women between the ages of 18 and 29.
