Designing Your Own Tattoo

Author: admin  //  Category: Forearm Tattoo, Forearm Tattoos, Tattoo Designs, Temporary Tattoos


We would first recommend not tattooing yourself – if you do the chances that you will end up with a messy collection of scar tissues is quite high.

Creating and making your own tattoo designs, which are then put on by a professional, can be a fulfilling and even a spiritual exercise.

Decide where you want to put the tattoo on your body, some tattoos work better on different parts of the body.  The scale of the tattoo should also be considered.  A timid tattoo may be lost on the forearm or middle of the back and a large blackwork design may not look right when placed on the ankle.  

Even if you are making your own design, we would recommend some internet research  to find some designs to try against your body, just to get an idea of positioning, scale and colour.

Then with the use of a bit of tracing paper, start putting some design ideas down on paper.

When you have come up with a design you are happy with hide it away and forget about it for a while.  If you still like it when you dig it out, youcould tray a temporary tattoo based on your design.

If the design is still right on you (and obviously doesnt just apply to forearm tattoos), then make a decision and head on down to the best reputable tattooist in your area and make it permanent.
