Tattoo. Which part of the body to sacrifice first?

The question is very relevant. Mom will certainly say that you need to make it right on the forehead! But
if you need to save your forehead for subsequent botox injections then there are still a couple of
interesting places left.


Hands
Very popular ones for the first experiments. The pain barrier is small, there is a lot of space, you can
build up a lot of beauty. If you need to hide a tattoo from your beloved grandmother and an evil boss,
then choose the inner part of the shoulder, and periodically we ourselves will forget that something was
made up there. Jn the hands tattoos spread minimally and catch eyes as much as possible, so think over
the plots scrupulously.

Legs
If you are an avid bike rider with elastic sura then you will have to suffer a little. Although the legs seem
to be more massive than arms but in terms of pain barrier, oh, how they are inferior to. The tattoo artist
should carefully circle around the leg so that the paint does not spread, the leg does not turn red, and
you do not “drive off” in the process of work. Therefore, do not make small plots on your feet. After a
long session it is better to take care of yourself and lie at home with a cup of tea rather than go on a
walking tour of the fields. You don’t need to put extra strain on your legs.


Ribs/Flanks

Our most treacherous place which is constantly stretching, hanging down, getting fat and losing shape.
Don’t panic! We are looking for a good master and he will make us an awesome work there taking into
account the characteristics of our figure to make our tattoo look “perfetto” while sitting, lying, lying on
its side and in the dog pose (yoga pose).


Back
Definitely it is a place for a masterpiece! The area is large, you can even make a Sistine chapel. The place
is quite painful, a pain can shoots up the leg and the arm because the spine likes to joke with us. If you
choose a big project at once, then reckon on your strength and finances. There is no need to stretch
large tattoo projects for 2-3 years. Any serious master will have the right to refuse you if you show up in
a couple of years. The fact is that the skill of the master is growing, the working equipment and
pigments are changing and your old paint will sink into the layers of the skin, and the tattoo will have to
be partially updated. So, you will have to finish your long-term project at most twice as expensive and at
worst from some novice artist who has not yet got a lot of orders and throws at all.


Chest
This is a round for advanced players! Sensations are more serious and the skin is more difficult to work
with.

Neck
We are leaving the “costume” area and our tattoos will no longer be so easy to hide. The neck is a time-
consuming place, the main thing here is not to be stupid because this composition will bother your eyes every time you look in the mirror. If it is poorly positioned you can visually shorten your neck, splay the
symmetry – everyone you meet will tell you about it! The place is unpleasant but you can stand this pain.
It is quite difficult and inconvenient to heal. Everything is rubbing, sweating, itching and, as luck would
have it, compresses are constantly fidgeting on the neck because a head is attached to it which it is
impossible not to turn. For someone, the paint is not introduced for the first time and spreads. So,
before we make something we are looking for a master who already has experience tattooing necks!


Wrist/Fingers
It is completely for aesthetes, rappers or tattoo artists. A special chic on this level is the well-healed
works because in these places you may find any jokes. More often it is a blue-gray blurred substance.
And do not be sold on stylish photos from the Internet where “love” is thinly written on the phalanx of
the finger. In a week it will be “iov” with bald spots. Qualitatively, only hand-poke tattoo heals in such places (a technique in which the master works without a typewriter) or rare cases from a super-
professional! There is only one way out – we are looking for a person with cool tattooed fingers and pester him with questions until he gives out the name of his tattoo artist.

Face
A tattoo on such a place will add to your fame! You will be remembered on the street, in transport, in a
cafe, institute, cinema and also take pictures, scare the kids with you, and especially the foolish
gentlemen will roll their eyes at the sight of you. Everyone will consider it their duty to express their
opinion and call for repentance of your mortal soul. Having decided to be tattooed in such a
conspicuous place you need to realize clearly what a fantastic scene will rush after you and train your
inner self to masterfully kick off all unwanted smart guys.
There was a very interesting case in my practice. A 19-year-old girl who wanted to make a large
inscription above her eyebrow signed up for a session with me. In whole she had 4 small tattoos on her
body. I had a long conversation with her on the topic of “why?”. She decided to put an inscription on her
face. After listening to a boring speech from me in the style of her mom and dad and reasoning that she
was still too young for such tattoos the girl’s spirit drooped greatly. It was clear from her behavior that
after leaving the door she would continue to search for the master who would make this inscription.
Then I cheated. I said that in my opinion she does not need such a tattoo but if she does not change her
mind in a month then I will do this work free of charge. The girl was very pleased with such a deal and
went home cheerful. As a result, a month later she wrote to me but she wrote words of gratitude and
confessed how much she was wrong then. The only fundamental difference here is that if a 30-year-old
self-sufficient lady had come to my session at that time with a lot of tattoos I would not even have
started such conversations with her but would have just tattooed her face.


Aesthetics of the body
And in conclusion I want to note that large-scale projects that flow through your body and are not
clamped within the boundaries of one part of it look very impressive. If you want to do a large and
interesting work think about the fact that it can be arranged very unconventionally, emphasizing your
figure with an interesting composition. You also need to consider how the tattoo will look with clothes,
what part of the work will be visible if you walk around in a T-shirt or shorts, because you don’t run
naked all the time so that the drawing is clearly readable.
