Generation X and Tattoo Removal

There was an interesting article published online which was related to the finance industry. It discussed the four generations that are involved in the business of forex trading. In doing so, it drew an interesting bit of attention to the issue of tattoo removal. The article divides the generations into four groups - pre-WWII, baby boomers, Generation X and Generation Y. Each one is succintly described. Writing about Generation X, the author's description includes: "They now find themselves leaders in business and community, and supporting a rapidly growing tattoo-removal industry." That gives the tattoo removal industry pause for thought. Are GenXers really the ones who are most likely to be getting tattoo removal? Are the people who are in their thirties today the ones that are most likely to suffer from tattoo regret but also be willing to do something about it? We often see tattoo removal marketed at a younger generation, the Generation Y kids who got tats in their teens and are sorry for the mistake. But perhaps it's their slightly older siblings that marketing for tattoo removal should be geared towards?
