Before you go to studio, check out some of the most important tips, which will help you make this experience more pleasant.
Things you should know before going for a tattoo:
1. When you go for a tattoo for the first time, it's good to think about it a small tattoo, as it will also be 'lesser the harm' if you don't like the final product, and you also don't know how your skin will react to the ink. You can always add later new ones, larger tattoos.
2. You must know yours pain threshold, as this will help you decide which place on your body is suitable for a tattoo.
3. Many people go for a tattoo without knowing what kind of painting do they want. Don't make the same mistake, but keep in mind exactly what will remain on your body until you die. It is most worthwhile to make a painting that has some deep meaning and it will also mean something to you in the future.
4. The location of the tattoo is key. Decide in advance where you want to have a tattoo, but also keep in mind that some parts of the body are more sensitive and others less so that you can affects the course of tattooing.
5. Trust to the tattoo artist, as it is important to trust him with your wishes and possible fears. But you also have to believe that He will create the thief you want.
6. Take your time and think it through, because you probably know what you're getting yourself into (both mentally and financially). Make sure you are financially able to cover the cost of the tattoo and take care of your tattoo after it is done.
7. Be calm. It's perfectly normal to be nervous about getting a tattoo, but stay focused. If you are too skeptical, consider whether you are a thief you really want to.
8. Bring it with you a friend, who has a tattoo, as he will help you in choosing a painting and in communicating with tattoo artists.
