Let’s drum up some discussion on this topic. I see many people on the forum that want suggestions for tattoo designs. So let’s talk about when you go to the tattoo parlor.
Do you usually have a design idea in mind (i.e. I want a skull tattoo), have an exact design (i.e. I want this skull in these colors and this size), or do you go with an open mind and let the artist suggest a design (i.e. I know I want a tattoo, but not sure what).
I am sure people have opinions on this topic, so let’s hear it!!
i picked that i have a general idea… but then again i do have a few that i had the EXACT picture, and wanted zero changes. i got a new tat thursday, and i all i told the artist was that i wanted some viney flowery thing. LOL i really didnt know what i was looking for, but he did a wonderful job of translating my goobledy-gok into a beautiful design… so both i guess.:)

You must have found a great artist…do you stick with the same tattoo artist everytime you get a new tat done??
I usually bring a pic to my artist before hand and we discuss then when I go for appointment he has it ready. I trust him 100% because I know his work & yes, if you find a great artist why ever change if you don’t have to!?
The last pic I brought him was such a shitty shot but I am positive that he’ll make something awsome out of it….the pic was just a guideline. Can’t wait to see it!
I think most artists encourage your feedback as they want to be sure you get what you want and if it is not possible or won’t turn out nice I think that most would say so……if not, maybe then you should shop for another artist.
