Pick a tattoo that is meaningful to you

The first thing may seem obvious - but don't rush in. You want to pick a tattoo design that is right for you, something which has meaning to you and not just an arbitrary design. When you pick a tattoo design, think carefully about your situation and tastes. Do you want to pick a tattoo to represent a person - be a child's name, parent's name, a symbol of something which means a lot to you like a sport, hobby, flower, military unit or martial arts design.

People often pick a tattoo insignia that would be patriotic or has a personal meaning. You need to make sure you will not ever get tired of it as it is permanent.


Start out small

A good rule is to start out small. If you have some basic tattoo designs in mind, you can get something small and there will always be an opportunity to add more to the design later. You might also pick completely different tattoos later on other parts of your body. You don't need to get it all done at once, so try not to overwhelm yourself trying to choose multiple tattoo designs.

Some of the most popular tattoos at the moment appear to be Celtic dragons, oriental lettering, roses, butterflies and any kind of fancy lettering.

If you are not ready for the permanency of a tattoo, a temporary tattoo can be made with henna (a herbal dye that is put on the exterior part of the skin to stain it) and it can last about a month.


Where....back, arm, shoulder, leg, foot...

Carefully consider the location of where you would like the tattoo placed. Ideally this should be based on what part of your body you would like to show and how often you would like others to see it. Also, you need to pick a tattoo design that fits the part of your body you would like tattooed. An example, choose a design for the upper arm that might be wide at the shoulder and taper down the arm.


Pick tattoo color
 
It often looks good if people with darker complexions pick a tattoo with high contrast or thicker line; maybe a larger design with stronger shading that is not subtle. Darker colors like dark blue, red, or green will display a design better than light colors such as pinks, peach, and yellow will. Generally orange does not show well on dark skin.


Do your research 
pick tattoo carefully
If you know that you want a tattoo, but are not sure which tattoo design to choose, you could ask good friends that you know, particularly if they themselves have tattoos, why they chose certain patterns. You could consult a professional tattoo artist to see what some of the more popular patterns are, read some books or magazines too. Another quick and easy option is to research tattoos from the reputable tattoo gallery. Whichever option you choose, the more research you do, the easier it will be to find a tattoo design you love.

Another thing to consider is cost. When you pick a tattoo don't necessarily opt for low cost, because more often than it means low quality. If things don't go as planned, you may regret it. When you choose a tattoo design, the most important thing is to find a reputable studio and artist in your area to perform the procedure. It may cost a bit extra, but it will be worth it in the long run. After all, tattoos are not a temporary thing. It will be with you for your entire life. Be sure you've figured out what tattoo design you want and you will be happiest in the long run.
