4 Steps to Getting the Perfect Lower Back Tattoo Design

No comments October 30, 2009 Hamiddin

Lower back tattoo designs are of many kinds but there are four steps which you should follow to get the perfect lower back tattoo. Here are the steps.

Be Ready

Modern techniques are now available to get the perfect design but there are customers who are not satisfied with their tattoos. It is very important to be mentally prepared before you get a tattoo. A tattoo is permanent so make sure that you do not take any hasty decisions.

Design Selection

This is the second most important thing in getting a tattoo. Do not ever select a design just because your friends or family thought so. It should be a personal choice because tattoos are permanent. You will need to select a stencil and the color preference which you can then take to your tattooist.

Getting a Proper Stencil

It is very important to get a high quality stencil. Every tattoo has a unique stencil which is set into the skin with the help of a liner. An inferior stencil that has been hand traced can make a poor tattoo. The color reference you choose will act as the guide for the perfect tattoo so choose it with care.

Test Your Tattoo

Before you get the real tattoo done it might be a good idea to get a false tattoo of the exact same type and size and on the exact part of your body where you have chosen to place your real tattoo.

See if the website or tattoo design studio you have chosen has such a facility. Getting a false tattoo done will prepare you for the real deal. You will also be able to change the place of your body where you have gotten the tattoo later if you find it misfits.

Choosing the Right Artist

Choosing the right artist is very essential if you want to have the perfect tattoo. There are three qualities to the right artist: portfolio, experience and enthusiasm. A good artist will always have a portfolio of their finished work. Check for the quality of lower back tattoo design on their portfolio. It is not a good sign if an artist does not have a portfolio.

An artist who has experience of a few years is always a good choice. Thirdly and most importantly, the artist should share the same enthusiasm as you have for your tattoo. The attitude of an artist shows the quality of his works.

These are the four steps that would help you to get the perfect lower back tattoo design.

Angel Tattoo Designs - Angel Wing Tattoos

No comments Angel Tattoos October 25, 2009 Hamiddin

There is no doubt that angel and angel wing tattoos have become extremely popular in recent years. And why not? Angels are some of the purest creatures that one can choose to ink on their bodies. They are very spiritual; these tattoos are around the most religious out there! However, not everyone who decides on angel wing tattoos or angel tattoo designs is getting them because of religious reasons. Angels stand for so much more than that.

Angel wing tattoos can be found in many shapes and sizes. Some span the entire area of people's back while others are small enough to fit nicely on your ankle. So how do you know what size to get? It's all about your personal preference. Some people just don't want an enormous tattoo covering their backs. Smaller angel wing tattoos are much easier to hide and some find them more attractive.

Full-bodied angel tattoo designs are just as or even more popular than angel wing tattoos. While the wings are cute and subtle, an entire angel can depict exactly what you want them to be thinking and feeling. The tattoo can portray a happy, peaceful angel or a protective guardian angel. Some illustrate a saddened fallen angel, while others represent adorable, cheery cherubs.

No comments Interesting Ideas for TATTOO Designs for Girls October 24, 2009 Hamiddin

Tattoo designs for girls are gaining popularity very fast as it is often believed, not without reason, that tattoos increase the sex appeal of the person in question. Most women find that a tattoo at certain places greatly increases how desirable they are to men.

Most of the sexiest women in the world have tattoos which greatly add to their sex appeal. Sporting hot and sexy tattoos on various body parts is now all the rage, but it is quite obvious that women today are changing their views on ‘cool’ tattoos. The reason for this is that women are now evolving from the cliché girl tattoos to bolder tattoos. Thus it isn’t unusual to that the tattoo studios that men use are preferred when it comes to tattoo designs for girls. The run of the mill chic tattoos are no longer popular for tattoo designs for girls.

Tattoo Back Designs - Two Sneaky Tricks For Finding Tons of Quality Artwork

No comments October 23, 2009 Hamiddin

How long have you been trying to find some wonderful tattoo back designs? Many of you are still looking, having gone through no less than 2000 tattoos that are very generic. Seeing this much cookie cutter junk is a whole lot more common than you think, but like the title says, two sneaky tricks will bring you to a fresh new world, where you can pick from original, perfectly drawn tattoo back designs.

I like to think that I know quite a bit about tattoos. I have quite a few (7) and I love to do research about them. That's why I took it upon myself to figure out why so many people were complaining about seeing a mind numbing amount of awfully generic artwork every time they surfed the web for tattoos. The reason is actually very simple: An inordinate number of us are still relying on search engines to show us where the great artwork sites are. They don't work, though. You will run into every galley that has generic tattoo back designs, but that's about it.

This is the only kind of gallery that shows up in search results any more, while the bigger, higher quality places stay far from reach. Well, it's time to bring them to the forefront, because there are tons of galleries out there that are waiting for you with fresh, high quality tattoo back designs. You bring these sites to the forefront by sneaking into any big type of forum. All you need from them is their archive section, though, because that's where you will be able to read and skim through tons of topics about tattoos.

It's the perfect place to get informed, because many of the larger topics will be laced with people sharing names and links to the superb galleries they've bumped into over the years. So many of the galleries that have real artwork stay hidden because of search engines, but this shows you where they are. It might take a few minutes, but the amount of amazing tattoo back designs you get from it is well worth it. No sane person should be settling on generic artwork any way.

No matter what style you prefer when surfing the web for tattoo back designs, nothing beats seeing high quality design choices.

Tattoo Arm Designs

No comments October 20, 2009 Hamiddin

Arms are the most frequently tattooed part of the body. This common practice and choice has its roots both in Eastern and Western traditions and makes sense when you consider that our arms are very visible parts of our body and naturally lend themselves to being viewed in most situations.

Most frequently, we see that tattoo arm designs fall into two major categories, Japanese and American Traditional. These will frequently be naval or sailing tattoos, kitch Americana such as pin-up girls from the 40's and 50's style, flags, etc.. They are generally executed within a few basic styles, including different locations on the arm, different sizes, shapes and of course designs.

One popular style becoming more common as tattooing increases in popularity is the SLEEVE TATTOO. These can be a full sleeve which will cover the entire arm, a half sleeve which starts at the shoulder and extends to the forearm, and the quarter sleeve, or quarter arm tattoo which generally goes from the wrist to about the middle of the forearm.

The idea is that the tattoo is dense enough so that no bare skin is evident and the appearance is as if you were wearing an article. You can even find some tattoo 'sleeves" to actually wear that way on e-Bay though I don't recall seeing anyone wearing one myself J.

Another popular pattern for the sleeve is floral, and as you expect generally women will favor this approach. But that isn't written in stone by any means and with the right design a floral pattern will work excellently with men as well.

Your choice is your own, of course, but taking into consideration your build type in general and the size of your arms in relation to the rest of your body is something that would be wise to consider before applying the ink.

Lotus Flower Tattoo

No comments October 19, 2009 Hamiddin

Lotus flowers have always been symbolic to many of Asian cultures and religions, most especially in India. Perhaps that's why the lotus flower tattoo is so popular. Did you know that this beautiful flower starts growing from the bottom of a pond's' mud? With time, as it grows, journeying towards the light. Once it has actually reached the surface of the water, is when the flower starts to blossom and becomes a beautiful flower.

To Hindu and Buddhist religions this flower is a symbol of wakening to the religious reality of life. Between the two religions the meaning varies somewhat differently but both religions place high importance on the lotus flower.

To the more modern tattoo admirers the meaning simply refers to representing "life in general". Just as the beautiful lotus flowers starts it growth in the bottom of a muddy pod into something of great beauty as people we may also grow and evolve into something more beautiful as well. Thus the symbol represents our struggle in life of growth and change.

For those that may have gone though a rough time in their life and overcame it seems to be the ones who have chosen this flower design as a personal symbolic reference to themselves. Just as the lotus flower started at the bottom of that nasty pond it journeyed forth and evolved into something of magnificent beauty.

The Lotus flower tattoo design is often placed or harmonized with a Koi fish. Many times in a Koi fish pond can be found the beautiful lotus flower, perhaps why they are often creatively designed and intertwined together.

Lower Back Tattoo

No comments October 18, 2009 Hamiddin

Naturally a womans' body has many places that are ideal for the placement of a tattoo but the most erotic one is the lower back. Some consider it an ideal inked location, if you work in a position that does not allow showing of tattoos, as it can be easily covered. Yet, it is also located in a spot that is easily shown off when the wearer wants to do so.

They come in many designs and styles that will enhance the appearance and the appeal. Most designs will curve gracefully along the waist area and the curve of a womans' hips. It will accentuate an already sultry and exciting part of the female anatomy.

The most popular designs for the lower back usually include vines, stars and flowers. Often times as well they depict some type of winged creatures such as dragonflies, butterflies, and even angels. If you choose a winged creature you do not have to stop there, you can add in flowers, vines and any other design you would like. Use your imagination and you'll see the possibilities for designs are endless.

Since a tattoo is a permanent design on your body you need to consider carefully the design before you make your decision. Give a lot of thought to the design and don't pick something just because it may be appealing to you right now, or it's popular or someone told you to. Think about choosing one that you will enjoy for many years to come. Choose the one that literally jumps out at you and captures your attention from the get go.

Also keep in mind that you do not have to choose one that is already made to order but you can find a professional tattoo artist who could design one just for you. This way yours will be unique and maybe even tell a story of sorts. The cost of a professional design will probably be a bit more, but often it is well worth it for yours to be strictly for you alone. It is a life long commitment.
