Getting a tattoo can be one of the most fulfilling decisions of your life if done with care and preparation. It can accentuate your body’s most favorable attributes, and it can proudly illustrate your character and style. What is most important is that you approach getting a tattoo with logic and education, as well as passion and adventure. Here’s a few things to consider before getting permanent ink!

1 – Learn about tattooing

Many people will get tattooed on impulse, and many times it’s the same people who go back years later to get it removed or covered up by another tattoo. Getting it removed or covering it up is not a fall back plan. Learn about what is involved with getting a tattoo, learn how they do it, how long it takes and how much they cost. Know as much as you can before you step into the shop, that way you’ll end up following your own advice when deciding what to get and whether or not you want it.

2 – Trust your artist.

There are many tattoo shops in the world, and many right here in Canada, but not all of them may be right for you. Find a place that is recognized as a legitimate and well run tattoo shop. Talk to others and their experiences with tattoos to find out where they got theirs. Many times people will have good things to say about the same place. Take note of this and check it out. If you aren’t comfortable in the chair, it will not be a good experience.

3 – Tattooing hurts

Whatever people might say about tattoos, no matter where you get it, you are dragging a needle full of ink along your skin for an extended period of time…repeatedly. IT WILL HURT. Maybe not too bad, but be prepared for some form of pain. Make sure you eat something before you get tattooed, or you may feel light headed and be sick. You do loose blood and your body has to have food in it for you to side step this symptom. Bring music or ask to have music played. Bring a fiend or a loved one with you. Once you’ve had one tattoo, you’ll know what to expect and the pain will be easier to bear, but the first one (depending on size and location) will be tough.

4 – Be careful where you get tattooed

You can get a tattoo virtually anywhere on the body, but be careful where you decide to get it. The forearms, hand and fingers, neck and face are almost always visible at all times. Remember that when you decide to get tattooed. Some places where you might work do not allow tattoos to be visible. Location is just as important as design, so think hard about where you want the tattoos before you get it. Here’s a trick: get a wash off tattoo and place it where you might want a real tattoo to see what it looks like.

5 – No you can’t get it cheaper!

My tattoo artist once said that the worst question he ever hears is “can I get that for cheaper?”. Tattooing is an art, and those who participate are artists. They work hard to put their work on your body, and they are proud of it. Tattoos can cost a lot of money, based on three thing: the time required to complete the tattoo, the size of the tattoo and the color of the tattoo. They can run anywhere form 50 or 60 bucks, to many thousands of dollars. Price should not factor into your tattoo. If what you are getting s going to be on your body forever, get it the way you want ti, for whatever price.

Follow these five steps, and your first tattoo experience will be a good one. Also, a note to those who hit the bottle or smoke Buddha: no tattoo artist will tattoo you if you are drunk or stoned, so don’t even bother trying. Besides, you’re going to want to remember what you get tattooed. You don’t want to wake up with something on your body you don’t like right?

When you are getting a tattoo of course you are hoping to receive high quality work. So what do you do when your tattoo artist botches your tattoo? Well first of make sure you do your research before getting your tattoo done. Make sure you check the tattoo artist portfolio of previous work. You want to see what he has done and what he is capable of doing before he places a needle into your body.

A tattoo is permanent! So it is really important in trying to stop this from happening before it happens. There is a surgical procedure that you can go through to remove tattoo, but it can also leave scarring and take several trips to do, up to 15!

If you already have the tattoo on you though you can try to not properly care for it and hope it lightens with the healing process. After it heals you can go to another tattoo artist and see about covering it up with a new tattoo.

There are some creams that claim to lighten skin and you can try some on your tattoo as well. There are really no instant cures for fixing your botched tattoo. It is something that you are going to have to live with and learn from for awhile.

So please make sure that you do your research on the tattoo artist that you are going to, it can prevent this from happening at all!

Today is the age of tattoos. It seems that everyone has a tattoo, or is planning on getting one soon. You may be trying to decide if you should get a tattoo yourself. This article is going to provide you with a few thoughts to keep in mind if you think you should get a tattoo, and some things you should think about before you accept the needle!

Do not under any circumstances, get a tattoo, because it is the “in” thing to do. Tattoos are for life. The only way that I know of to have a tattoo safely removed is to go to a doctor and have them remove it with a laser. The way I understand it, you are still going to have a scar that covers the area of the tattoo. So ask yourself, if you really want to be scarred for life.

One thing a lot of people do when getting a tattoo is to have someone’s name tattooed on themselves. I do not suggest tattooing your girlfriends name on yourself. Let’s face it people, whether you think it will happen or not, people break up all the time! I actually know a tattoo artist that would not tattoo names on his customers unless those names where the name of their children, or a loved one that has passed away. Do you really think your new girlfriend Sally wants your ex girlfriend Jane’s name on your arm? Think before you ink!

Lots of men seem to think it is cool to have a half naked woman tattooed on their body. Although when you are young, your male friends may think it is awesome, chances are the women in your life will not. You also have to ask yourself if you are ever going to have children. Do you really want to become a father and have your children see a naked woman on your body on a daily basis? I am sure that some people wouldn’t mind, but I sure do not want my children seeing it.

The last point to think about, is how this tattoo will look in 30 years. As a person gets older, their tattoos begin to blur. Your tattoo artist should tell you all the ways to keep your tattoo looking good, and part of that will probably be a touch up. Tattoos are for life, so if you are going to get a tattoo, choose wisely.
