Tattoos last forever
Time and time again I ’ve heard the regretful remarks of people who got undesirable art work inked into their skin. What’s more, again and again I also hear stories like... "Well, I’ve always wanted one and just couldn’t work up the nerve so, as I was walking I saw this tattoo parlor and ducked in because I’ll never bring myself to it if I just don’t do it."
Remember the bad ones last just as long as the good ones... FOREVER!
Bzzzzz! Huge mistake number one. When considering getting a tattoo, DO NOT think that because you don’t want to look like a wimp or whatever that you just need to make a un-educated decision. Your friends aren’t the ones who’ll have to wear this thing.
Huge mistake number two. Don’t go to the parlor and look through all the portfolio binders when you haven’t even thought of what you wanted BEFORE you arrived. Having an idea is not even good enough. Let’s put it this way. Ever went to the supermarket to shop for food when your hungry... remember how regret always follows (I spent too much, I got too much) and once it’s done it’s done.
Huge mistake number three. If you’ve been working in a certain profession or live a certain lifestyle, you may want to consider where you put your tattoo. tribal bands can be on an ankle or high enough on an arm to still look great and be out of the way of the professionals that my criticize you at work. I’m not saying be a slave of the "Corporate" system but don’t throw a spoke in your career because someone can’t get over some simple art and he happens to be your boss. (get the picture)
Huge mistake number four. Foreign language characters are beautiful but as with say kanji tattoos, meaningful celtic symbols, tribal tattoos or any tattoo design that has a meaning, make sure the tattoo means what you expect it to mean. Unfortunately even some tattoo artists don’t know the true meaning of them.
Not to knock them one bit but remember tattoo artist are just that. Except in some cases where they go and do research and gain the knowledge of these things over time, they know just as much as we do about the actual meanings and translations of these symbols... squat!
Don’t rely on them to be historians and translators as well as artists. One of the best places I know of that has an abundance of designs and things to choose from and with high quality art can be found by by going here and it’s called Xtacy tattoo.
Remember to do your home work and research what you want AHEAD of time. There are many places you can do this and take your time, on YOUR own time. On the resource page link in the paragraph above is a good place to start. There are so many sources on this page but be sure to read about caring for and what to expect. You’ll see the links in the text. I know you’ll find it informative and beneficial to your skin art journey.
Good luck and remember your tattoo is just that, your tattoo and no one elses. Choose wisely and no regrets.
