5 Tips to Decide on the Perfect Tattoo

By Sylvia Rolfe Picking the perfect tattoo pattern can be a very tedious task. After all, this is a permanent body modification. You can't just decide tomorrow it is something you no longer want and wash it off. If anything it will cost you in most cases more than you initially spent on the tattoo itself to have it removed. There are many things to keep in mind when you are deciding what tattoo will be perfect for you.

* Colouring. Different colours work well with skin tones other colours stand out very strongly. Do you want a tattoo that screams for attention or are you seeking one that blends in and looks as though it is actually a part of your skin and body. Remember different colours can also increase your pain level.

* Pain Tolerance. As in choosing the colour for your tattoo you need to understand your own personal pain tolerance, black inks are typically done deeper into the skin and can cause a great deal more pain. This is why most people will tell you that the filling didn't hurt so much as the outlining did.

* Size and Filling. This is another thing to keep in mind. How large of a tattoo are you comfortable with. Large areas requiring filled in colour can be more painful and be more eye catching. Larger tattoos are more difficult to cover with clothing if need be.

* Visibility. Is the tattoo one that will be only for the most intimate of people or is it one that will be displayed proudly for the whole world to see. Is it going to be a tattoo you can cover if need be or one that will be covered at all times?

* Employment. Does your current employer look down on having a tattoo visible? Perhaps you change employment in the future will your new employer allow tattoo or could it prevent you from actually getting that employment?

Deciding on a tattoo requires many considerations, you don't want to have to get it removed in the future due to lack of thought and future insight. With some careful considerations you will find the tattoo that suits you perfectly and that will be one you are happy with for life.
