Tattoo Concepts : Find A Great Artist

By Shaneka Tammo


Not all tattoos fall under the header of body art, because not all tattoos are created by artists. If you desire body art, you should choose a tattoo artist that may show you examples of the work he's done. If you want your tattoos to be design, do not look for a bargain basement cost.

Tattooing involves penetrating the skin. This is another excuse to beware of cheap tattoo parlors. Any penetration of the skin can result in infection and doctor's are expensive. Infection can mess up your tattoo and leave scars. Trained tattoo artists follow proper antiseptic protocol.

If you are afraid of a tetanus shot, this potentially isn't the best idea you have ever had. If you have 0 tolerance for discomfort you must get nil tattoos. If you want body art, try using decals or temporary tats. Henna tattoos are a choice. These are made with a dye and last for roughly two or three weeks before they wear off. They will not wash off.

Permanent tattoos are manufactured by using needles to inject ink into the skin. While the needles don't go truly deep, they can hurt, especially in delicate areas like the interior of the arm. Areas with fewer nerves, like the higher back hurt less, but it's's still likely to be uncomfortable. You can ask your artist about the best places for your tattoo.

The actual art work should be something that you like and can live with. In ten years, you may change, your ink won't[**]. Tattoos are like diamonds, forever. Current slogans, names and modern designs just aren't good choices. You may explain that tattoo to your kids some day. You do not need to be embarrassed. Use common sense and keep a watch on the future. Your ink artist can make good suggestions. Listen to him.

Deciding on where to put your tattoo is really crucial. Folks who work in store sales, food service or in an office environment, should probably select a location that's's normally covered by their work clothes. A lot of companies frown on body art for their employees. If your art will not cause Problems on your job, put the tattoo anywhere you want it.

Large tattoos are a larger investment in time and cash than little ones. Small tats can mostly be completed in one sitting. Big ones, particularly those with different colors, will take much longer, and you will have to come back 2 or more times. Talk to your artist about the amount of time it will take to finish your ink. Make sure you obey his instructions for after care. Tattoos are wounds and have to be kept clean and dry.

Like every other professional, your butterfly tattoo artist should ask about any allergies. He may wish to do a skin test some days before you get your tattoo. Allergic reactions are pretty rare, but they can happen. It's a complication you do not need.

Still convinced you would like a cross tattoo or maybe two? Remember your ink is permanent. Years from now you could be a different person, but your tat will stay the same. You may have to explain to your better half or kids why your tattoo announces Janice and your better half's name is Maria. Never look for a bargain when getting a tattoo. A bad tat lasts so long as a good one and you can risk your health with a newbie. OK, you can get it erased with a laser, but if you suspect tattoo artists are pricey, wait until you check out plastic surgeons.
