Before You Get a Tattoo Read This

When it comes to getting a tattoo there are many reasons why we do. For most people, tattoos are art that is made on the body but with more meaning. Yes, some of us get them because they are so adorable. I especially like ones with meaning like these here, because of the meaning behind them. Love is a powerful force. A lot of us express ourselves with these tattoos. All love doesn't have to be the same thing as some can be brotherly love rather than romance.

Meaning

As I mentioned above, let me say it again. The most important thing about your future tattoo is its meaning. Not just an image but really think of the cost and the look and ask yourself if is it worth getting. If then you have to have it because the meaning is so strong then nothing else will matter, not even the pain. However, if you lightly considered the meaning of your tattoo and even chose a colored tattoo, you might want to research color tattoo removal procedure and cost for further consideration. 

Some people use tattoos to cover scars which is really cool. Although it may not be enough to cover some stretch marks it can hide tiny scars.

Choosing the right size

The size of your tattoos plays a big role in how they will look and the final decision. Sometimes in the professional field, you cannot wear a certain large tattoo. Although tattoos are becoming more accepted by individuals they are still not accepted everywhere. So be mindful of that, a small tattoo can be easily hidden. There are a number of celebs rocking small lovely tattoos that are so memorable. If you choose to go for larger ones you have to consider that they will take longer, cost more and maybe even more details. Check with your artist first because some won't do certain detailed designs. 

The design of your tattoo

There are plenty of places to get a tattoo and a floral shoulder tattoo is one of those. These are so cute and you can choose to make them big or small. Although this spot may be a bit painful it is totally worth it. I think the rose with a snake wrapped in it is beautiful and interesting. These types of tattoos are pretty and lovely. They stand out on any body parts you can choose to have really small ones behind the ears. Over the last few years, they have become more and more popular even among men. When it comes to getting such a tattoo you should do research and get ideas of what you are looking for.

How much pain can you take?

The pain of your tattoo can depend on certain factors such as your tolerance to pain and the location. Some areas of the body are a lot more painful. Also although you can get the area numbed you will still feel the pain. Some of the time, half the pain is really just in your head and you can feel more at ease with a calm mind. 

Personally, I have a high tolerance, I have a few tattoos and I am planning to get more. I have tattoos on my back, lower spine, ankles, and elbows and those are sensitive spots. You should keep in mind that any area over the bone will hurt a lot. The larger the tattoo the more pain you will have to endure. Hidden tattoos will hurt more in the long run as they spend more time being covered instead of getting to heal.

You can take something for the pain before you start the tattoo. Do not drink alcohol before getting your tattoo, this will make your blood thinner. Also, no one wants to work on a  drunk person, who maybe acts like a fool and can cause a mess. Just don't be high period!

So which tattoo may you be getting?
