Have you been wanting to get a tattoo but don't have an exact
idea or not sure what you want? Tattoos are so popular and there
are so many ideas but many of us feel stuck at times on the
exact tattoo we want to get. For me I often feel stuck when I
think of how permanent a tattoo is. I see a lot of cool designs
that I like at the time but when I start thinking about the
having it permanently done I start to change my mind and look
for something else.
Others have the idea or rough plan of what they want but they
can't find any good source material or flash that matches what
they want. Some of our customers state that they have spent
months looking for a certain tattoo design. They look through
all of the flash sites and etc. but still can not find what they
are looking for.
This is a huge problem, you end up wasting a lot of time and
feeling frustrated. However there are some simple ways around
this problem.
1. First you should always pull ideas for tattoos from things
that you like or are into. Don't go and get a tattoo just
because you saw someone with one and you thought he or she was
cool. A tattoo will be with you forever and so it should be
something from you not from outside. Along these lines don't do
the stupid thing of going out to get a tattoo with a friend and
be pressured into getting the same thing he or she gets just
because you don't want to look stupid. Tattoos are permanent and
therefore should state something about you and what you love.
Therefore if you spend time just thinking about the things you
like and things that you identify yourself with you are likely
to come up with some great ideas. For example for me I love
being outdoor and nature and so I like star tattoos a lot and
nature themes. I also like a lot of the native American and
traditional Japanese designs. My wife is from Japan and she has
this plan of getting a Cherry tree branch full of cherry
blossoms across her back. These are very significant images for
the Japanese. They symbolizes the new year and new life or even
r enewal of life. So as you can see your tattoo should be
something you identify with.
2. Once you have some rough ideas it is typically time to go
online and look for some images. Now lets take the Cherry
blossom for example. Some place you could look for a tattoo
would be clip art. You can search using Google's image search
feature or go to Microsoft online clipart gallery. Either place
you can find either a clip art drawn piece or actual source
photos. Both will lead you to some good source materials that
will help in the design stage.
3. Next you want to take you source materials (photos or clip
art) and show them to a tattoo artists. You might also try some
initial sketches if you are artistically inclined. Even
something with simple line art or pigeon scratches can tell you
tattoo artists a lot about what you are looking for. So take
everything you got and show it to your tattoo artist and then
let them design the tattoo for you. Remember the more accurate
and detailed you can be with your description the more happy you
are going to be with the results and the whole process will be
much easier.
4. Most tattoo artists will then provide you with an actual
design shaded in and with color and the line art of the design.
If you are getting this done online then you can take that to
your local tattoo parlor and find some one to do the actual
tattoo for you. Often you can also ask for referrals from the
original tattoo artists. Typically they can do the work
themselves if you live within driving range.
If you take these steps into consideration and actually do a
little bit of homework and find your source materials and
provide lots of details about what you are looking for then you
are sure to get the design of your dreams.
