Tattoo Help?

theres nothing wrong with having tattoos. i have a few aswell, large ones. alot of people think its 'too much' but whatever,eh? i know theyre gunna sag when i get older, but **** who cares! ill still love them! as for researching an artist, i would recommend going and finding out where tattoo parlours in your area are. go in and ask to see the artists' portfolios, so you can see some of their previous work and get an idea of whether you want that person to ink you or not. i always do this, and im so glad i do. because my buddy got inked at the same parlour as me but decided to go with a different artist...not a good idea...hes got blow outs and his tattoos look like crap, whereas mine constantly get compliments. so do your research on the individual artist, not just the parlour. and it helps to go in and actually meet the person too
