There are 3 ways you can guarantee yourself a killer tattoo design. Too often guys and girls go with what is popular or get hooked on the first design they see, and regret later sets in realizing they chose a super lame tattoo design, instead of taking the time to find something awesome.
Here's 3 ways to get a killer tattoo design:
1. LOOK AND ASK! There are so many awesome tattoos out there worn by guys and girls that you should definitely keep your eye out and when you see someone with cool ink, then ASK them the following:
Where they found their design.
Which parlor or artist inked them up.
Any recommendations for high quality designs.
2. MAGAZINES! I don't think many people realize how many tattoo magazines are out there and how many high quality designs they contain. Definitely give this a shot. Hit the bookstore, browse through some mags, and buy the one(s) that contain inspiring, high quality work. This gives you an excellent idea of the style you like, specific artists who you can investigate further, and just general inspiration for what to look for in a killer design.
3. TATTOO GALLERIES ONLINE! These are a blast to look at. All the work is good, and every imaginable category is provided. Once you sign up for an online tattoo gallery, you will find yourself spending hours browsing through awesome designs, bookmarking the ones you like and eventually making a decision which you won't regret. Basically you will go through so many designs you will be very confident in the choice you make.
