Beginner's Guide to Getting a Tattoo
The main concern when thinking about getting a tattoo should be finding something that
you really like as well as the location on your body. Keep in mind that this will be with you
for the rest of your life, so you must be comfortable with this decision.
Custom tattoos tend to be more expensive and time consuming because they demand the
artist to pay closer attention to the detail and design. In addition, it is a design that they
have never done before. Simple, more common designs are generally less expensive and
take less time.
Another aspect of the design to consider is color or black. Black tattoos are very attractive
because they tend to stand out more on the skin due to more of a contrast. Color tattoos
generally are more expensive but there can be more creativity involved because the
possibilities are endless with color.
The location of the tattoo is key. You must consider some things when thinking of
location. Will others see it easily? Do I want this to be easily seen by others? Do I want it in
more of a private place so only those close to me would view it? Which body parts hurt
more than others?
Generally, places that have thinner skin tend to hurt more. These places include, but are
not limited to, due to differences in all of our bodies, the ankles, head and the lower back.
Less painful places include the upper arm, back of the shoulder and the chest.

Tattoo Safety Precautions
Before making the decision to get a tattoo, be sure you are educated about possible
health risks associated with the practice. These risks are minimal but can occur
nonetheless.
Non-sterile tattoo practices can possibly lead to the transmission of infectious organisms
such as Hepatitis B and tuberculosis. To limit the risk, be sure to see the next section on
How to Choose a Tattoo Parlor.
Be sure to follow the exact instructions on caring for your new tattoo. Your skin is open
and is in the healing process during the first few weeks after your tattooing session so be
sure to take care of it carefully.
Another thing to consider is allergic reactions to the pigment. If you are aware of any
allergies you may have, be sure to share them with your tattoo artist.
There is a list provided by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) that is known as
Universal Precautions. This is part of the Blood borne Pathogens Rule that was issued by
the EPA. They apply in any health service setting that exposure to bodily fluids and blood
is likely to occur. This includes tattoo parlors.
Many states and local authorities have their own regulations for tattoo parlors that are
based on the EPA guidelines. Check to see if your state or local municipality has such
regulations. Also, look into any professional licensure that your state may have in effect for
tattoo parlors.
Finally, the biggest thing to remember when getting a tattoo is to NOT let a friend try to
tattoo you. Please leave it to the professionals who make this art their livelihood. They
have the training and licensing to provide you with a clean and safe service.

Choosing a Tattoo Parlor
Choosing the right tattoo parlor is very important, especially when getting your first
tattoo. There are many things to consider when choosing a tattoo parlor.
Make sure that the parlor is a place where you feel comfortable and relaxed. Some people
have had the experience of joining a friend for their tattooing session so you may already
have an idea of a place like this.
Most importantly, the parlor should be clean and professional. Clean is always important
when dealing with needles and blood.
The tattoo parlor should be well lit. This is important for a few reasons. The bright, or
better yet, natural light is a better way for you and the artist to see the true nature of the
colors used and what the tattoo will actually look like. It also makes it easier to feel relaxed
knowing that you can see what is going on all around you.
When walking into a tattoo parlor for the first time, don’t be afraid to ask questions. Are
the needles and other materials one-time use? Will gloves be worn? How long have the
artists been tattooing? Are they members of a professional organization?
Be sure that all of the needles are opened in front of you. This will ensure that they haven’t
been used 15 minutes before you for the person down the street.
If you know of anyone with a tattoo, feel free to ask them where they got it done and if
they would recommend the parlor or a particular artist. Tattoo magazines are a good place
too. You may find an article or advertisement for one in your area. Also, browse around the
internet to find a place.
Remember, this is a permanent investment, be sure to choose the tattoo parlor that is
right for you.
