Yes. There is something very satisfying about putting a faith-based marking on our body.

A lot of Christians do it, anyway, finding that faith based tattoo designs are an effective conversation-starter in witness conversations.

I think that is better than a tattoo that involves disfiguring God given skin.

Well, tattoos are not for everyone.

But a lot of Christians do make the conscious decision to do it; and I guess they would not see it as disfigurement; often it's a witness means.

I saw this quote about the sheer numbers of ppl in the Bible Belt that do it:

forums dot thewelltrainedmind dot com

It used to be a man thing to do, but it seems like it's become a very womanly thing to do, now, right?

Some ppl live to regret their ink. Others certainly don't! (I've lost count of the posts on this forum where the poster says s/he does not regret getting tattooed.)
