Choosing a credible tattoo artist is like
selecting a dentist. Each artist has their own unique style of inking and of
course their own incredible array of artwork. Almost every experienced tattoo
artist will be able to provide you with a 'custom piece' of artwork. A 'custom
piece' is a term that refers to an original tattoo creation that was designed
specifically, and only for YOU.
And, you wouldn't trust your neighbor to perform
a root canal would you? Well, not unless your next door neighbor just happened
to be a dentist :-) Still, you wouldn't want to get a 'garage root canal'!!
You'd want to go inside a clean, sterile environment with certified
professionals with the right tools to perform the delicate work that needed to
be done. In all seriousness, this is the only body you have. So you must care
for it as such.
Take some time to look through the artist's portfolio,
which most pro artists have, and take a look at the work they have done. Ask
them questions that are important to you, no matter how silly you might think
they are. Believe me; a professional tattoo artist will give you any answer you
seek with regards to tattooing. If you are unsure of anything, ask! The tattoo
artist you select should be receptive to your questions and be as helpful as
possible. However, don't expect to act like an ass and then have the artist
kissing yours! Be respectful AND tactful.
