I would like to share with you some ideas to keep away from common tattoo blunders and put you on the road to finding the best tattoo design for you.

First, and foremost, you must always keep in the back of your mind that getting inked is a lifetime dedication, not a spur of the moment idea, you will soon regret. getting a specific tattoo design because you thought it looked lovely is ok, but a tattoo that has a narrative behind it is something you will be more proud of, don't you think?


I would like to share with you some ideas to keep away from common tattoo blunders and put you on the road to finding the best tattoo design for you. I will show you from my own experience how I made giant mistakes with my first tattoo, and the way you can avoid the same pain.

For example, in the event you put a cross tattoo design on your upper arm or on your back in remembrance of a loved, and later you pick to receive a half sleeve, full sleeve or back tattoo design, then this tattoo will make it hard to run with a theme, and that is why I say look at the giant picture before you get inked.
 of the most common blunders is jogging in to a tattoo parlour hoping to find the ideal tattoo. I do know, because I was daft to go down this road. Positive, I had an idea of what I wanted, a snake and dagger tattoo with my daughter's name somewhere in the design, but I was swayed by the tattooist who said snakes and daggers were masculine, and I 'd be better off with a softer picture. I walked out the door with a tribal butterfly tattoo on my upper arm, wondering how did this happen.

If it is your first tattoo or your first in a specific part of your body, always to keep in mind the giant picture; by this I mean, in the event you are thinking you will be happy with tattoo, think again, as most people will receive a second or third tattoo, and I have seen plenty of people get caught out in this situation.

I am currently in the technique of a cover-up which is so disappointing, but it leads back to what I said earlier, I require to receive a full arm tattoo design but trying to fit that butterfly in didn't work. So, do your home-work, be prepared by finding a lovely tattoo artist and go there with at least a basic drawing of what you require.

Or do as I did, and join a tattoo design site. It takes the pressure off deciding on the spot, and you can select of thousands of designs to select from, so you will find something to suit you.

I hope this guide has been of some benefit to you, and in the event you like to know the right place to go so you don't make the same mistakes as I did, have a glance at my site at: http://guidetotattoodesigns.com.
