How to not end up at the wrong tattoo gallery...
By Sascha Menzer
Whether you're looking at a tattoo gallery for your first tattoo because all your friends are getting one, you're going on vacation and want something to remember your fun time forever, or you're planning out your next large custom piece, your goal is the same: getting the perfect tattoo. To get the perfect tattoo from a tattoo gallery, essentially all you need to do is match the perfect tattoo design with the perfect tattoo artist--but it's not really that simple.
Getting a tattoo is not something to be taken lightly, unless you have already done your homework and have a thorough knowledge of tattoos. While the mantra 'tattoos last forever' is a great thing to keep in mind when making your decision, it is not completely accurate: they only last until you move on to the next world, silly... or until you cover them up with new ones, or get them removed with laser surgery--but that's a whole other article. Tattoos may be painful to get, but they are even more painful to remove. Suffice it to say, the decision you make now will affect you, in some way, for the rest of your life.
The 'proper' way to get the perfect tattoo is to do a few years of researching tattoos as well as the art world in general in order to develop a taste for artistic tattoos, before choosing a tattoo artist, not after. Visit some tattoo conventions, surf the Internet and check out many tattoo pictures and templates at tattoo galleries, email and talk with tattooed people you know, check out the landscape, and learn about it before jumping in.
So, the first rule to getting the perfect tattoo, like almost anything in life, is to be patient and really learn about this fantastic art form before taking action. In this information age of knowledge sharing, there is no reason to enter the world of tattoos without doing it the right way. Sure, most of us heavily tattooed people did not follow the advice being given in this article, but that's because we were young and dumb. Now that we have learned all these lessons the hard way (and our dumbness is still debatable) and are sharing them with you, you don't have any excuse for making bad tattoo decisions. If you end up on a website like badtattoos.com, or as the butt of your friends' jokes, don't say we didn't try to warn you...
