Although Dean was originally going to have a tattoo - as seen in this behind the scenes in Phantom Traveler - it was in season Three that both Sam and Dean got tattoos.
Following Sam's possession by Meg in 2.14 Born Under a Bad Sign, Bobby gives Sam and Dean each a Charm Amulet which features a symbol which will stop demonic possession.
In 3.12 Jus in Bello, the boys reveal that they have had these Anti-possession symbols tattooed on their chests.
Sera Gamble on the tattoos origins
FFN: Those matching tattoos are pretty cool. How long has that been planned?
SG: I remember talking about it with Ben Edlund last season, while Cat was writing "Born Under A Bad Sign." We agreed that if we were Sam, the first thing we'd do is take that anti-possession amulet and head for the nearest tattoo parlor. He reminded me of it while we were working on “Jus In Bello,” because breaking out the amulets was an important story point in that episode. So I stuck it in there, and it made for a nice moment. It’s like, of course Sam and Dean have matching tats. How could it be any other way? By the way, I'll be convinced we're truly a cult hit when a fan gets the same tattoo.
Little did Sera know, that fans had been getting tattoos since early on in the Show's run.
