tattoo tips:
• relax & sit still~! all that moving around is making it more difficult for your artist to do their best work, making it take longer & yes probably hurt more... this includes shifting your position every time the artist goes for ink...
•
• know what you want but be flexible... your skin is not the same as a piece of paper... your artist is an experienced professional & will know what can & cannot work, taking into consideration your skin tone, your shape, & size & detail of the artwork
•
• understand that your tattoo project is a commitment... dont be afraid! do be prepared to sit for multiple sessions to complete a large &/or detailed tattoo
•
• dress comfortably! its not a fashion show & you will be asked to position yourself in such a way as to make the area of your skin where you are getting the ink available & taut... as well its always possible that you will end up with some ink on your clothing so your favorite white shirt is probably not the best choice
•
• dont be afraid to ask questions
•
• respect & trust your artist... understand that while doing a tattoo may look easy, its not! its only the skill & confidence of your artist that makes it look that way
