Step 1: Consider Your Style
When it comes to art, style is substance. And when the canvas is your body, choosing art that reflects your style is not an option, it's a necessity. Before you pick a design or pick up a pencil, you must consider your personal style. Portrait, tribal, Celtic, Chinese, floral, zodiac, religious and military are just some examples of tattoo styles to consider.
Step 2: Choose Colors
Your desire for vibrant color or shades of black, white and grey will determine your design and your artist. Some designs, like a koi fish, would be boring in black and white, while others, like a Chinese symbol or tribal tattoo, would not look right in color. Likewise, certain artists specialize in certain styles, so color choice is crucial.
Step 3: Choose Design
Once you've narrowed your options by style and color, you can choose a design. Designs can be custom-created or selected from flash, a library of ready-made tattoo designs found in most shops.
Step 4: Design Placement
Where you put your tattoo design affects its size and shape. Intricate designs need a larger canvas to show detail. Simple symbols can go virtually anywhere. Consider how the shape of that tattoo fits with the curves of your body.
Step 5: Go for it!
Now that you've found the perfect tattoo for you, find a shop and the right artist and go for it!
