Hey guys I’m thinking of getting my first tattoo, but I’m pretty oblivious when it comes to what to look for in an artist. Are there any clear do’s and don’ts when it come to getting your first tattoo??
any help whatsoever would be appreciated |

"There’s some great studios in Leeds.
You want someone who won’t just take some flash artwork off the wall or out of a book and trace over it and stick it on you.
Find someone who will take the time to custom draw out what you want.
And most importantly, you get what you pay for. " i got new one today, have a look x |

Decide what you want. Research an artist that does that style of tattoo. Or do what I did and throw ideas around with an artist and then trust him to do a sleeve!
Also, always look at pics of actual pieces the artist has previously done |

Once you know what tattoo want thsts when you look for an artist. Most will specialise in a particular area like portrait or Japanese ect. Go to their shop and look through their portfolio, see if you like their previous work and chat to them about what you want. |

Research an artist who specialises in that particular style of tattooing i.e watercolour or realism. Maybe go to some conventions. Check out their work, obviously cost can be a factor but as norman collins said 'cheap work aint good and good work aint cheap' Have a consultation etc. Get a good nights sleep and avoid alcohol etc. Take sugary sweets, water and some carbs, headphones oh and warm socks if its a long session  |
