Discover LudwigThe phrase "a tattooing" is not correct and usable in written English.
It is typically incorrect because "tattooing" is an uncountable noun when referring to the act or process, so it does not require an article like "a."
Example: "Tattooing has become a popular form of self-expression in recent years."
Alternatives: "tattoo process" or "tattoo art".
