The most exciting part of having a tattoo is selecting between the host of tattoo designs available. However, it is not something to be entered into lightly so it is only sensible to have a period of reflection before committing. Having made your decision, you should also spend time making sure your artwork will suit you and who you are.

The number of tattoo designs is limitless; bounded only by imagination which, is of course limitless. Quite apart from anything else too, each will be unique to its wearer anyway. That said, possibly the single best way to get something that you will appreciate forever is to craft your own design. If you are not the best artist you shouldn\’t worry; as a respected tattooist will be able to help anyway.

In any case, working closely with the artist that will be tattooing you is always a good idea. It helps build up a rapport of course, allows them to understand exactly what you are after and, they can be there to guide and advise you. However, don\’t let them lead you; be your own person and make decision for yourself ultimately.

It can often seem easiest to select a standard design. However, the common hearts, flowers and family scrolls may not be right for you. But if that is your choice, great, just make sure you are really happy with it.

One way to help decide which would be good for you is to have a temporary tattoo, a henna tattoo, put in place for a week or two. This will allow you to get used to the idea of a permanent design, and really help you feel how it will look on you.

Finally, having made your long thought decision over tattoo designs; you will need to select exactly where on your body you want to have it placed. This also needs a considerable amount of thought of course; but that is for another time.
