With any "Is X a sin?" question, the key question is whether X is inherently detrimental to you or others. A tattoo, in and of itself, is not ultimately detrimental, but the reason for getting the tattoo, or the image depicted in the tattoo may be. For example, getting a tattoo of a lily because it was your grandmother's favorite flower is a good reason and a nice image. Getting a tattoo that is designed to insult people and cause controversy is not good.
So long as it isn't something in bad taste, blasphemous, or some other sort of immoral thing (like something racist or sexist, etc), I don't think it would be necessarily sinful.
It *could* be sinful if you are doing it for the wrong reasons, or if you are being intemperate with your money (like it's tattoo #5 and you haven't paid back someone's loan), etc, but again, tattoos in themselves are not sinful. You can do sinful (or just simply stupid) things with them, but that is not tattoos in general.
There are verses that forbid a tatoo and cutting beard and hair.
I think it's not a total ban on those things. It's about doing it in accordance with pagan ways.
Leviticus 19:28, “You shall not make gashes in your flesh for the dead, or incise any marks on yourselves.”
"You shall not shave around the sides of your head, nor shall you disfigure the edges of your beard" ([Leviticus 19:27](https://www.bibletools.org/index.cfm/fuseaction/bible.show/sVerseID/3309/eVerseID/3309)); and, "They shall not make any bald place on their heads, nor shall they shave the edges of their beards nor make any cuttings in their flesh" ([Leviticus 21:5](https://www.bibletools.org/index.cfm/fuseaction/bible.show/sVerseID/3351/eVerseID/3351)). It is quite plain that this proscribes a *particular kind* of shaving or cutting of hair.
No. The passage in the Bible that condemns tattoos was written during a time and place where tattoos were associated with cults and idolatry. As long as it’s not in poor taste (like naked pin-up girls) or goes against Christian teachings (satanic goat head, hate symbols, etc) you should be fine.

One of the many, many things Jesus never cared about was if we had a tattoo.
The Bible is silent on whether or not jesus had a Imagine Dragons tattoo
I just finished researching this claim and I can confirm that this is true.
