Some Tips To Avert A Tattoo Disaster

If you decide to get your first tattoo then that is a huge decision that is not to be taken lightly, after all if you don't like the design years later then you only have some very expensive and painful options left to remove it. A good artist will be able to cover over your tattoo if you don't like it, but that is a difficult process and you may not like the result of that either so it is much easier to just choose right the first time.

Below are 3 tips to help you avoid some common tattoo mistakes that people make:

Make sure you choose the best person for the job: We said that choosing a tattoo you like is important, but probably more important is to choose an artist who is going to do a good job of bringing your idea to life. The skill level of artists varies massively and in most countries I don't think there is even an exam that people need to take for them to set up as a tattoo artists.

That is why when I want a new tattoo then I look at the tattoo magazines and read about some of the artists featured in there. By reading the interviews and looking at the awards that people have been given then you can easily see which artists are the most skillful and passionate which makes choosing a lot easier. Yes that may mean you need to travel because the chance of an artist near you being featured is slim, but it will be well worth it in the end. It also hurts less if your artist knows what they are doing, so if you are having tattoos on your feet which is supposed to be very painful then you will glad you picked somebody good!

Avoid words in the design at all costs or triple check they are correct: This is one of the most common problems that I see with people who have had tattoos done, and one that is easily avoided. The most common cause of this has to be that someone decides they want a phrase inked on themselves and then they just ask the tattoo artist for it with no planning. The best way to go about it is to write it out in a word processing program first. That way you can spell check it to spot obvious errors, and you can double check it yourself, plus you can easily amend it if you need to as well. Then print it off and take it to the artist to have it done once you are happy with it.

Plan ahead: This is something I wish somebody had told me years ago. You might not think you are going to get any more tattoos after the first one, but you probably will so spend some time thinking about the future. It is important that you leave room to expand your design if it is in a popular place like on your arm or back, and how easy is the design you chose to add to later or blend in with other tattoos? Tattoos are quite addictive and it will look silly if you just get a collection of individual tattoos, the best designs are those that cover a large area and integrate a lot of different designs into them.
