Tattoos Do's And Don'ts

Most of us can agree that tattoos seem to be the symbol of 'hipness' du jour. Old and young, Black and White are sporting tattoos of varying colours, styles and meanings. I have nothing against them personally, but I swear that some people just wake up and decide to get a tattoo without any proper thought of what they're permanently stamping on their bodies. Where they place these tattoos is another eyebrow raiser.

Anyhow, I decided to come up with some do's and don'ts for sporting tattoos:

Do keep it simple, stupid! Thinking big is usually an admirable quality, but not necessarily when you're getting a tattoo. How many times have you seen an oversized lower back tattoo (also known as the 'tramp stamp') peering out from under a lady's top and wonder what the heck she was thinking? Simple is always better.

Don't tattoo your breasts! There are hundreds of women walking around Barbados right now with all kinds of designs on their chests, and I wonder if they know that gravity ain't a female's friend. Besides, that can't be good for the breasts at all.

Find out what tattoo symbols mean. That Sanskrit or Kanji symbol might look real cool on your shoulder blade or ankle, but I don't think you'd be too happy if you found out its meaning was 'moron'.Don't get multiple, multi-coloured tattoos. This picture says it all. She looks like she was mutilated.Don't place multiple tattoos on one limb, especially on a leg. It looks like you have a skin disease.

Women, please don't place tattoos on your upper arms, 'cause you look butch as wuh. Unless that's the look you're going for....

How To Find A Good Tattoo Shop

So… you’ve been thinking it over for weeks now and you’ve decided you’re finally going to take the plunge… gather up your ten closest friends and go get a tattoo. With your cash in hand, and a vague idea of what you want, you open up the yellow pages to find your friendly neighborhood tattoo artist. Much to your surprise, you find not just one or two, but 10 or more shops listed. What now? With the rise in popularity of tattooing, there has been an exponential increase in recent years of new tattoo studios, eager and willing to cash in on the public’s newfound interest in skin art. This has both its advantages and disadvantages.

Competition between studios offers you, the customer, more choices than ever. It also helps to force tattooists to keep their rates reasonable. A chief disadvantage, however, is that it’s become increasingly more difficult to find a good tattooist. Before you flip a coin or throw a dart, realize that this is no decision to be taken lightly. With new studios opening on what seems like every corner, it’s become more important than ever to do your homework. There are more tattooists working today than at any other point in history, which, sadly, also means that there are more bad tattooists working than at any other point in history. Here are a few tips on getting a tattoo you can be proud of.

First, and most importantly, think about what you want!!! What do you want your new tattoo to say about you? Do you want it to say anything at all? Where do you want it? Why do you want it? There is an endless supply of ideas out there, just waiting for you to go find them. The Internet, library, comic books, fabric patterns, craft books, etc, can all be excellent sources of design ideas. With the quality of work available today, you’re only limited by your imagination and your budget.

Once you have an idea in mind, it’s time to find a good studio. This is the easy part, though very time consuming. Yourfriends will most certainly offer their advice, and this is fine, but don’t go on that alone. Take a day to drive from shop to shop, with the intent of not getting a tattoo. When you walk in, go directly to the counter, and ask to see the artist’s portfolio. If they don’t (or won’t) show you one, leave immediately. This is the only way to gauge the ability of the tattooist. Don’t be distracted by the walls full of brightly colored designs or the flashing neon in the windows. Take your time and closely examine the portfolio, looking for crisp, clear photographs of healed tattoos with smooth line work, solid color, no scar tissue, and a style that is pleasing to your eye. Be critical…Remember that artists almost always put their best work in their portfolios, so if what you see is mediocre at best, what you’ll get won’t be much better. Once you’ve decided if the work is of acceptable quality, take a few minutes to look around. Is the shop clean? Well lit? Does it have a good “vibe”? Talk to the staff. Ask about their experience. How did they learn? Where have they worked? Does the artist seem friendly, cooperative, confident, and knowledgeable? If all’s well so far, now you can check out the designs they have on the walls and/or in the books. You never know… you might get some new ideas… but do not get tattooed yet! You have a lot of shops to check out still.

Do the same thing a to the same thing at each shop, being mindful to look at quality, cleanliness, professionalism, and style, and keep a mental note of how each shop rates in comparison to the others. Once you’ve checked out all of the local studios, you can now make an informed decision on where to go to get your tattoo and who you would like to do it.
