Twenty-five years from now are you still going to be glad you got that particular tattoo? And, something you might see as being cool today, you might hate down the road a bit.

Specific things to look for when scoping out a good tattoo studio: 1.Ask if they use a brand new sterile needle every time. 2.Ask if all other tools that are involved in the tattooing process are either sterilized or disposable (and, of course, are y either sterilized or disposed of after each customer?)

Reality is that most people select their tattoos based on deep, personal meaning. They aren’t interested on what is “in” and what will get them the recognition of the cool crowd.

Tattoos and the updated practice of tattooing can be regarded as an almost mystical experience similar to the exchange of energy experienced during tantric sex or modern day sex magic.
