5 Things to Consider Before Getting a Tattoo

There's a lot more to getting a good tattoo than saving up some cash and picking a design. One of the regrets I hear most often from clients is that they got their first tattoo at the first shop they saw. In my experience, a person is truly ready to get a tattoo once they've:

-Thought long and hard about the piece they want
-Researched the shops in their area and chosen the cleanest, most experienced shop with the best reputation
-Looked through the artist's portfolios and chosen the one most suited to their piece
-Had a consultation with the artist
-Saved up enough money for at least the first session (if it takes more than one)

Tattoos are a beautiful thing. Take the time to do it right, and it will be a permanent piece of art that you can carry with you forever.
