HISTORY OF TATTOOING
Tattoos were first used to decorate the body in Ancient Egypt. Body art on the chest, hips, arms, chin and nose was then considered to be implicitly erotic and certain motifs were used to signify a person’s fertility, love or sexuality. These days both men and women have tattoos to show everything from their favourite football team to their first-born child.

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR GETTING A TATTOO
Consider what design you'd like! You have to live with your tattoo for the rest of your life. Discuss size & color with your artist to achieve the look you want. Sometimes it is better to
leave artistic aspects of your tattoo up to the wisdom and experience of your chosen artist.

LOCATION OF YOUR TATTOO
Give the location of your tattoo considerable thought. It is there forever. If your concerns are
for the sensation and level of discomfort involved, your artist should be happy to discuss these aspects with you.

CHOICE OF TATTOO ARTIST
Find the artist that fulfills your needs in creativity as well as in professionalism, price and,
last but not least... personality! All should make you feel comfortable.
