Aldi launches temporary Specialbuy tattoos like air fryers
In light of the new tattoo range, research commissioned by Aldi has revealed a generational shift in attitudes to tattoos, with younger generations rejecting the traditional view that tattoos must be permanent commitments. The study of 2,000 Brits found two-fifths (43%) of Gen Z people believe tattoos are part of an "evolving canvas" that can be updated and refreshed over time, compared to just 14% of "Baby Boomers" who still see them as lifelong commitments. Aldi has launched a collection of temporary tattoos (Image: Aldi) The tattoo generational divide extends even further to tattoo regret. 72% of Brits aged 55 and over said they would be put off getting a tattoo in case they regret the decision. However, a quarter (25%) of Gen Z people aren't worried at all, claiming they can always get it covered or removed in the future. In fact, 61% of Gen Z wouldn't think twice about getting a tattoo, with 30% saying they would happily get one tomorrow. Of the Brits surveyed, 45% would even consider getting a tattoo related to a brand or product they genuinely love, as over half (57%) of Gen Z and Millennials admit they see tattoos as a fashion accessory rather than a permanent commitment. As Brits' fear of tattoo regret was revealed, the survey also found that over half of the nation (58%) have considered using temporary tattoos as an alternative to the more permanent version. Aldi launches unusual temporary tattoo collection to honour Specialbuy sellouts The research comes as Aldi reveals its unusual tattoo collection, celebrating the popularity of the supermarket's ever-changing Specialbuy range, with products like the viral Pilates machine which almost completely sold out across the nation in just 24 hours.
