A Guide to Getting Your First Tattoo

By: Liza Remington

Tattoos are going to be a permanent addition to your art collection. You will be wearing it everyday. Make certain that it is something that you truly want. Be sure that the image you decide on is something you will want to live with for eternity. Getting a tattoo on the spur of the moment is not a great idea. Decisions you make in the heat of the moment could give you serious grief down the road.

Tattoos can be extremely expensive if you go with an elaborate custom design. Custom time takes the artist more time to design and more time to apply. If you are ready to make a significant investment in your body art than custom design tattoos are for you. Stock design tattoos are less expensive and take less time for your tattoo artist to design or apply. If you select a stock tattoo design from your tattoo artist you are probably going to get a design he has done many times before. Your artist will be able to move quickly through the design. You may be able to compromise on price and design by selecting a stock design and adding a small change or a new color to make your tattoo unique but still affordable.

After you have decided on a design you will need to choose color or grayscale. Black and shaded makes a tattoo really pop. There will be a definite contrast between skin color and the black ink. Color is good to. Color does costs more but gives you more design dimension. You can make your tattoo completely unique just by adding a few colors.

Location, location, location is not only important in real estate but equally important in tattoos. Where you put your tattoo will definitely tell your viewers a story. Put in a public place and advertise your attitude. Put it in a place hidden by clothing and keep it as a reminder of memories or know that the tattoo is just for that particular someone's eyes only.

Tattoos placed in areas where the skin is just going to hurt more than in areas where there is more muscle or fat. Decide on your pain tolerance level before you start the process. Your artist may be able to deliver a few small skin tests to determine if your pain tolerance for that particular location is acceptable. Areas with thinner skin include ankles, head, chest and lower back. Areas where pain may not be as intense include arms, legs, shoulders and your rear end.
