The choice of the tattooer - very difficult business. Some request too high price, others promise masterpiece, and do mediocrity... How to find the master?
- It is the best of all to look for the tattooer through social networks, such as VKontakte or Facebook. There you will be able to see full portfolio and to read comments already made tattoo and to discuss all issues interesting you with the elected master.
- Look through portfolio or you ask to show several recent works. The fact is that some tattooers work in strictly certain style: old school, for example, or dotvork. Therefore even the ordinary butterfly at two masters will turn out different.
- Pay attention to commentators. Even if the portfolio suits you, surely read all comments on the posted photos. Even ideally looking tattoo can fade because of use of bad paints over time, can inflame because of the wrong methods of drawing and in the absence of the due level of hygiene. And some ""professionals"" also in general can copy easily others works to themselves in album. Therefore if you have suddenly noticed in comments of charge of the master of dishonesty or negligence - think whether it is worth going to it?
- Precisely decide on the place of drawing the drawing and with the drawing. Agree, it will be very ridiculous if you come to shop and you will begin to consult at the shop assistant that today to prepare for you for dinner. And with the Tat masters: any should not solve for you, where to you to make tattoo, what size and color. The choice of the sketch - entirely your task. The only thing what the tattooer can help you with is development of the individual sketch. On your ideas.
- Learn cost and be going to pay. Unfortunately, it is necessary to pay for beauty. Surely find out how the tattooer has payment. Someone charges fee for hour, some appoint the payment for each separate tattoo. Also you should not waste time on trifles! The good, qualitative tattoo of the small size ordinary costs about 3-5 thousand, apart from the cost of production of the personal sketch. Production of tattoo of larger sizes, naturally, is more expensive.
- Studio or at home? The tattoo means use of the painting pigment and needles. In essence, the tattoo is introduction of paint under skin. Therefore it is necessary to be especially careful in questions of hygiene. Usually private masters not especially think of protection objects like disposable gloves and even disposable needles. In studios they to it are obliged.
