Not only did a local politician (whom I'm not acquainted with) send me a generic birthday greeting, I even received one for Mother's Day, though I don't qualify.

of a tattoo artist you are going to use then the next step is deciding
on a particular tattoo design that you want. From this point on is where
the hard work starts. Finding the tattoo artist is the easy part but
deciding on what tattoo you want will take work. There are so many
different kinds of tattoos to choose from it actually makes it harder to
determine which tattoo to go with. It's also a lot of fun looking at
tons of different possible <b>tattoo designs</b>. The type of artwork
that you choose will be a personal preference but there are some designs
that are more common than others. For example, an angel tattoo design
is more popular with men than a rose or butterfly tattoo which is
popular with women.<br />
The
colors to choose for a tattoo vary widely and all depend on personal
preference. Rose tattoos do not have to necessarily be red, but can also
be black or white as there are many different meanings with rose
colors. Styles of the different tattoos will vary also depending on they
type of tattoo.<br />
The angel or devil tattoo will tend to be in
larger format with bold dark colors, while a tribal tattoo will have
many pieces and black color. A butterfly can be any different colors,
sizes and shapes.<br />
Choosing the location of the tattoo is also part
of the process. You can have a tattoo put anywhere on the human body
and some people will go overboard and place a tattoo in odd places such
as the top of the head, under the neck, on fingers, feet and many other
places you can think of. What is popular for women might not be as
popular for men, such as women love to have tattoos placed on the lower
back, upper back or on the ankle, while men tend to have tattoos placed
on the upper arm, shoulder or back. It is all a matter of style and what
the person likes best. There really is not a wrong place to put a
tattoo as long as you like it.<br />
As you can see, the choice of <b>tattoo designs</b>
are endless and finding the right tattoo for you may seem like a huge
task but of course there are many resources you can use to find the
right tattoo.<br />
Using the Internet to start your research may be a
good idea as there are many different websites related to tattoo
designs. There are many galleries and pictures that you can look through
to get an idea of the kinds of tattoos out there. Most sites will try
to sell you templates of tattoos, which might be of good use since you
can take those templates to your tattoo artist, which in the long run
will save you money from having a tattoo artist design a fresh tattoo.
This does not mean you cannot have the template modified. The cost will
depend on the size and complexity of the tattoo design that you decide
to go with. So if you wish for a small tattoo, it might be worth the
extra cost for a tattoo artist to create a unique design.<br />
If you
do not find any tattoo designs on the internet that you like, you can
always go to your tattoo artist and ask for a sketch of a tattoo that
you may be thinking about. This of course will cost extra but may be
worth it in the long run as once a tattoo is put on the body it's very
difficult to get rid of it. Be sure to spend time researching your
tattoo and look through as many pictures and designs as possible as it
will help you decide what you want.<br />
</div>
<div id="article-resource" style="text-align: justify;">
After finding a tattoo artist you will need to do research to
find the tattoo design. Start by looking through directories or
galleries of tattoo designs. This will help you find the design you are
looking for. Even if you don't know what kind of tattoo design you want,
by looking through galleries you will get an idea of what is out there.
Angel tattoos are becoming popular among men, along with devil tattoos. But for females you might want to look for rose tattoos or even any kind of lower back tattoo designs.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Lawyer
Kaireddyn (Kai) Orta began fabricating his own, rudimentary tools for
making tattoos in 1996, while still in high school here in Oaxaca,
Mexico. One day a neighbor saw him carrying a shoe box, and asked him
what was in it. Kai showed him the adapted motor, needles, ink and other
paraphernalia. The neighbor was the recipient of Kai's first tattoo.
Kai then began doing tattoos for his schoolmates.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Kai had been
interested in tattoos (tatuajes) and body piercing (perforación) since
boyhood. It was natural for him, since his father was a history teacher,
constantly recounting stories of rituals of Mexico's indigenous
populations. There was no shortage of books around the house with images
of pre-Hispanic peoples who were accustomed to self-adornment. Kai ate
it up.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But throughout Kai's youth, seeing tattoos in the flesh was
a rarity. Aside from in books and occasionally coming across a tattooed
person on TV, he would only have an opportunity to actually see real
live people with tattoos and body piercings when he would catch a
glimpse of mainly North American and European tourists walking the
streets of downtown Oaxaca, a Mecca for international tourism.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The
modern tradition of tattoos and body piercings had been established in
countries such as Canada, the US, Spain and Britain, long before it
arrived in Mexico. Like so many representations of emerging subcultures,
it takes upwards of a decade for them to catch on in Mexico, especially
in the more isolated and conservative regions of the country, like
Oaxaca.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The state of Oaxaca was by and large physically isolated
from the northern half of the country, and indeed the broader world,
until the arrival of the pan American highway in the late 1940s. While
the odd adventurer would make his way down to Oaxaca between then and
the early 1960s, it was the hippie movement later that decade and into
the early 1970s which opened up southern Mexico to the concept of North
American and European counter-cultures, including tattoos, and then body
piercing. However the prevailing sentiment of the Mexican middle
classes was that their children should be insulated from foreign youth,
and all that its subculture stood for.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Leap forward to the 1990s.
Change would begin to emerge in Oaxaca. Tattoos, body piercings and
other non-traditional forms of self-expression had begun to be perceived
as mainstream throughout the Western World. The silver screen and
magazines promoting its pierced and tattooed stars had become
commonplace. Oaxaca had to take notice. And that included its older
generation, which was then forced to recognize if not accept that the
ritualized behavior of their grandchildren (and to a much lesser extent
their children) could no longer be equated with something devious, dirty
and wrong, simply as a consequence of changing their physical
appearance through piercing and painting their bodies, permanently. Many
in the Oaxacan youth culture were becoming critical thinkers through
higher education, therefore better able to make informed decisions,
stand up for them, and celebrate them.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Kai is thirty years old.
Practicing law wasn't for him. By the time he had graduated and had a
taste of the working world of attorneys (less than a year), he had
already become an established tattoo and body piercing artist, with his
own studio, albeit quite smaller than his current digs. And besides,
most lawyers in Oaxaca do not earn the level of income that provides for
a middle class lifestyle, at least by Western standards.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Kai's current studio, Dermographics, in the heart of downtown Oaxaca, consists of:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
•
The reception area with long desk and computer, tropical fish filled
aquariums, display cases with mainly jewelry relating to body piercings,
wooden African floor sculptures and masks (as well as a few Mexican
masks), a bookcase filled with albums containing drawings and
photographs of mainly tattoos, and two comfortable sofas where customers
can browse through the "catalogues" at their leisure
<br />• A similarly adorned middle room with supply cases by now of course
filled with modern, commercial equipment and supplies, and a small
adjoining workroom
<br />• The back room, with chairs and "operating" table, for attending to tattoos and body piercings</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"Here
in Oaxaca we don't refer to ourselves as 'artistas,' Kai explains. "In
the United States there's much greater acceptance of the art form and
those who are dedicated to the skill, so in the US and other countries
such as Canada it's acceptable to use the term 'tattoo artist.' But in
Oaxaca we just refer to ourselves as tatuadores."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Kai & Colleagues Participate in Twelfth Annual Tattoo Fest in Oaxaca, Summer, 2010</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
During
the course of a 3 ½ hour interview at Kai's studio, his friends and
fellow tatuadores from Mexico City, Daniel (Tuna) Larios and his
girlfriend Angélica (Angy) de la Mora, were in the shop working and
otherwise serving customers, while for part of the time Kai was out
running errands.</div>

<div id="article-content" style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>Tattoo Designs</strong><br />
are something you need to think about seriously. Do not make one of the
most important decisions of your life an embarrassing mistake. Your
choice on tattoo designs, which will be permanently inked into your
skin, has to be some sort of tattoo designs that YOU are comfortable
with, one that truly rocks and makes heads turn in awe.It can be
difficult making that important decision on tattoo designs. It is
something you do not want to rush then regret later on.<br />
What you
need to know about tattoo designs is that in this day and age tattoos
are very common, in fact a study done in 2006 by the American Academy of
Dermatology, estimated that roughly 1 in 4 people between the ages of
18 and 50 had at least one to two tattoo designs. Even with tattoos
being so common, many people do not know much about them. Tattoos are
sometimes still considered odd, questionable and even taboo.
<br /><strong></strong><br />
<strong>Tattoo Designs</strong> are
patterns, pictures or markings made by dye inserted into the pores of
the skin by perforating the skin with immense caution. People in the
Tattoos industry refer to them as tats, work, ink or art. In scientific
terms, tattooing is actually micro-pigment implantation.<br />
Globally
this type of art practice is gaining approval and many mainstream art
and design galleries hold expos of tattoo designs and tattoo pictures.
The popular name for tattoo designs is Flash.<br />
<strong>Tattoo Designs</strong>
more often than not reflect the personality of the person wearing them
and so they should, they are on your body. Often people search for the
tattoos they want in the actual parlor for something that will suit
them. It would be hard to choose your tattoo designs from only what is
on display in the chosen tattoos parlor. You should do extensive
research on tattoo designs first. I have found numerous sites online
that offer a plethora of tattoos, tattoo designs, tribal tattoos,
pictures and information. The time it took to find as much information
and ideas that I could was massive, but worth it in the end as we can be
very specific to what we want when deciding on tattoo designs and
location to place the tattoos.<br />
Weather it be an extreme concern
for your cultural roots or something of significant importance to you,
the tattoo designs that you choose will be one of the most important
decisions of your life.<br />
I have heard countless horror stories of
bad decisions related to tattoo designs. People excited to rush out and
get those 'Perfect' tattoos that they saw on their favorite celebrity
like Britney Spears, Alyssa Milano, David Beckham or Robbie Williams. Or
even seeing some tribal tattoos in a movie like Blade, only to realize
after coming out of the parlor that the tattoo designs just do not suit
them, or wasn't what they expected. The fact then hits that they are
stuck with those tattoo designs for the rest of their lives.<br />
Their
problem was a lack of research in tattoo designs and tattoos in
general, because the excitement of actually getting some tattoos
finally, blurred their judgment and made them hasty to rush out and get
those tattoo designs that they saw or thought up and then trying to
describe it to the artist. Definitely <strong>not</strong> the smartest thing to do.<br />
Also
the location of your tattoos is key. You must consider some things when
thinking of the location of your tattoos. Will others see it easily? Do
I want my tattoos to be easily seen by others? Do I want my tattoos in
more of a private place so only those close to me would be able to view
them? Which body parts hurt more than others? Generally, places that
have thinner skin tend to hurt more. These places include, but are not
limited to, due to differences in all of our bodies, the ankles, head
and the lower back.<br />
Less painful places include the upper arm,
back of the shoulder and the chest. And it also depends on your pain
threshold when getting tattoos on how bad it will actually hurt.<br />
I
bet you have heard of or been with some people who just rock up to the
tattoo parlor, look through the tattoo designs in the books and all
the pictures of tattoos on the walls, pick something that looks cool and
jump right into the chair to get what <strong>should</strong> be
meaningful tattoo designs inked into their skin. They either want to go
the extremely cheap option and choose simple tattoos, (more common
tattoo designs are generally less expensive `nd take less time) or they
have just been out on a heavy night on the Britney Spears - (Beers) and
just stumbled into the parlor, only to wake up in the morning wondering
why they have a Superman tattoo pic on their butt.<br />
Another really bad mistake.<br />
<strong>Do not</strong> make these mistakes. Ultimately at the end of the day, it's <strong>YOUR</strong> body; think about this very important decision. What kind of tattoo designs are you after? What kind of tattoos do <strong>YOU</strong> really want? Remember, whatever you choose to decide for your tattoo designs and the location on your body, it will last <strong>FOREVER!</strong><br />
Make the decision a <strong>GREAT</strong> one.<br />
Weathdr
your looking for tribal tattoos or Celtic tattoo designs, Japanese or
Chinese tattoos, exotic or fantasy related tats, superman tattoo pics,
Robbie Williams tattoo, Brittany Tattoo, important after care
information, choosing a good parlor, artist, safety precautions or even
free tattoo designs, you need a source where you can grab everything you
could want in one place.<br />

these days? In the past you may have only seen tattoos on people such as
sailors, outlaws, and biker gangs but now tattoos are a very popular
body decoration for many people. The types and styles of tattoos has
also come a very long way. It is no longer crude pictures of pinup
girls, skulls, and anchors. Tattoos have developed into very
sophisticated art work ranging from Celtic crosses to very personalized
symbols. People have found and created designs that express themselves
in a very personal way.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>What is a Tattoo?</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Very
simply a tattoo is a puncture wound made in the skin that is filled
with ink. Although done differently today than in the past the technique
is still somewhat similar. Today, tattoo artist use a tattoo gun that
has one or more needles that penetrate the skin and delivery ink into
the skin. Tattoos last a very long time due to the fact that the ink is
placed deeply into the skin. The top layer of skins is called the
epidermis and it is constantly shedding and being reproduced. If the ink
from a tattoo was in this layer of skin it would not last very long.
The layer of skin that the ink is injected to is called the dermis,
which is a deeper layer of skin that is very stable and makes the tattoo
stay visible almost permanently.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Tattoos in the past were done
manually with a tool that they tapped on the skin to make the puncture
wound and then the ink would be injected by hand. Most tattoo shops
today have tattoo guns or machines to do this today, although you can
still find areas around the world that still use the older style of
tattooing. The tattoo guns make tattooing much more quickly today
because the machine is able to deliver the ink into the skin as it is
puncturing the skin. The tattoo artist can change the tip of the machine
to contain one needle or group of needles depending on if they are
drawing the outline of the design or shading part of the design. Most
tattoo artist today are very skilled and know just how far to drive the
needle into the skin to produce a good tattoo. Not going deep enough can
result in ragged tattoo and going to deep can result in excessive
bleeding, not to mention the pain would be much worse.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>Does It Hurt?</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Getting
a tattoo can hurt and can take several hours or even days to complete
depending on the size and design of the tattoo you are getting. The
amount of pain can and will very depending on the location of the
tattoo. Everyone has a different threshold to pain also. The art has a
bit to do with it also. A good tattoo artist can provide less pain over a
new or less experienced tattoo artist.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>So you want a Tattoo!</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
First
and foremost, if you are going to get a tattoo, get it done safely!
Remember, a tattoo is a puncture wound that needs to be taken care of
just like any other scrape or cut that you may get. By taking care of
your tattoo you will be less likely to have it get infected. It may
sound a little silly but you need to make sure that your immunizations
are up to date. Tattoo shops today have implement steps to help you
avoid infections and disease but it doesn't hurt to take an extra step
for your own safety. Have a plan to get medical care if your tattoo does
get infected. Some signs of infection are excessive redness, prolonged
bleeding, pus or changes in your skin color around the tattoo.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If
you have a prior or existing condition such as heart disease, allergies,
diabetes or a condition that effects your immune systems by all means
consult with your doctor. He may be able to recommend precautions that
you can take before getting your tattoo.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Choosing the place to get
your tattoo is very important. You want to be sure the tattoo shop is
clean and safe. Things such as needles, gloves, mask should all be
disposable and should never be used on more than one person. The guns
themselves and other equipment that is not disposable should be
sterilized after every use. You can contact your local government
agencies(county, city, local health department) that can inform your on
licensed tattoo shops, standards or complaints against a specific tattoo
shop.</div>

body, you must first do some thorough thinking. Take into consideration
that any tattoo will be with you for the rest of your life and is VERY
expensive and painful to remove. Choose the location of the tattoo on
your body very carefully. It may be a good idea to wear a non-permanent
tattoo for a while to make sure that the tattoo you're getting is
exactly the right size and design you want.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Tattoos
are reasonably painful to get, but you may stop the tattooist at any
time during the procedure, until you feel ready to go on again. Some
people feel pain more acutely than others. Most people feel inclined to
get another tattoo soon - which is an indication of the bear ability of
the pain. Large tattoos are done over a period of time, to give the
wearer time to rest after each session. And yes, when the tattooist
perforates the skin, there will be moderate bleeding. It is a good idea
to be well rested before your first tattoo!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Expensive or Cheap?
Good tattoos are expensive BUT nothing looks worse that a botched up
tattoo. My advice is to choose a professional artist at a tattoo
parlour, pay the extra amount and make sure that you get quality that
will last a lifetime. Your tattoo artist should use a transfer sheet to
transfer the image onto your body before starting to add on the
colours...</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Hygiene? Going hand in hand with choosing a
professional tattooist, is making sure that your tattoo is done with all
the hygienic safety precautions in place. A professional tattooist will
show and explain to you all the safety precautions that are taken. It
is a good idea to shop around beforehand to be able to cut out dodgy
tattooists. See our article about safety precautions.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Aftercare
Aftercare should be prescribed to eliminate infection of the wounds and
allow proper healing. In some countries underage tattooing is not
allowed and special permission has to be given to tattoo mentally
incapable people. It is advised to make use of well trained and
professional tattoo artists and precaution must be taken by the client
to make sure that tattooing is done only under the most hygienic
circumstances. The responsibility ultimately lies with the client to
make sure that all the safety precautions are adhered to. Click here for
link to tattooing equipment for sale There are no hard and fast rules
concerning immediate aftercare of a tattoo. It is advised though, to
keep it as sterile as possible while it heals. Specially developed
tattoo ointments are recommended, but there is consensus that gentle
cleaning with soap and water is recommended. gentle anti bacterial
ointment can be applied if the special tattoo ointments are not
available.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Care must be taken not to use too much water for
rinsing, though as this could also wash out tattoo inks or soften scabs
before they naturally fall off. If a tattoo gets infected, the chances
of distortion of the image are very good due to the formation of scar
tissue and the loss of pigments. Two of the tattoo taboos are to remove
scabs before the skin sheds them naturally and exposure to the sun is
not advised. Tattoos frequently exposed to the sun will also have to be
redone or touched up sooner then those not exposed - so stay out the sun
- even after your tattoo has healed! Picking off scabs will remove the
ink as well before it has set in and the sun tends to bleach tattoo
inks. A tattoo looks at it's best when the maximum ink remains imbedded
in the skin.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Keeping a tattoo moisturised for the first two months
after the first week of initial healing will keep your tattoo looking
better for longer as the tattood area tends to become very dry during
this stage. Keeping it moisturised will aso prevent scabbing and
scarring. Allergic reactions to t`ttoo inks have been reported, but is
very rare. It is recommended that a small patch of skin is subjected to
the ink, before attempting a tattoo, especially facial tattoos, such as
make-up tattoos. A program was introduced in Canada to legalize Prison
tattooing. Inmates are trained and equipped with the right instruments
to do tattooing properly - eliminating the chances of infection and
disease spreading.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The History of tattoo's</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Tattoos are hot,
modern day body art and fashion accessories. Tattoos have been around
for ages and still are a cultural icon Everyone wears them, from the
celebs to the everyday moms and dads. Ladies, especially, have become
very aware of the appeal that a well placed tattoo can have lower back
tattoos, small and secret little tattoos, flower tattoos and many more,
are meant to surprise and please and decorate and so it does too,
otherwise it wouldn't have been that popular!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Tattoos dating back
to the second millennium before Christ have been noted on mummies as
body decoration. Tattooing has been an ongoing practice since about ten
thousand years ago in Japan as evidence shows. Different ancient
traditions and cultures have been identified by the types of tattoos
that they made use of.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Tattoos have been a popular form of body
art for thousands of years in Europe and Asia. With the spread of
Christianity in Europe and the effort to convert tribal people with
traditional cultures that involved ritual tattooing, to Western
religions and cultures, the use of tattoos almost completely disappeared
in Europe for a while, because it was considered a pagan practice.
Europeans to see tattoos again after it had lost its popularity for so
many years, were Captain Cook and his sailors when they visited the
Marquesas Islands in the 18th Century. Captain Cook described the
tattoos as markings and said that the Polynesians called it "Tataw". The
sailors who were on the journey with him reinstated the art in Europe,
where it soon was reinstated as a popular form of body-art. Sailors,
especially, were associated with tattoos At the time tattooing was a
common custom outside of Europe and until today tattooing is a tradition
amongst indigenous peoples around the world.</div>

for many people their tattoo does not meet their expectations. And while
it's possible to make a tattoo fade using laser removal technology,
it's time consuming, costly and painful. So here's how to avoid the most
common mistakes that people make with tattoos.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>1) Never Agree To Get A Tattoo When You're In The Wrong State Of Mind</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Getting a tattoo when you're in the wrong frame of mind is a shortcut to disaster.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So
don't even think about getting tattooed when you're drunk, depressed or
under pressure (it's not a good enough reason just because all your
friends are getting one, or have got one). And don't get a tattoo done
on a whim.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You know it's a whim when you find yourself in a tattoo studio and you hadn't even considered getting a tattoo the night before!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It's
good to be spontaneous, but not with something that will last you the
rest of your life. So before you get a tattoo, always ask yourself "Do I
want to get this tattoo?"</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And keep asking yourself that question
every day for a fortnight. And only after you genuinely answer yes every
day, do you go anywhere near a tattoo parlour.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>2) Choose The Right Design</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Choosing the right design is absolutely vital to the amount of pleasure you get from your tattoo.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Let's
face it, if you want a dragon, you won't be happy with a flower design.
And if you want a large tattoo, you won't be happy with a small design.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So
don't compromise on what you want. The final choice of tatoo design
must be yours and not that of your friends, partner of tattoo artist.
After all, you're the one who'll have to live with it.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It should
be a piece of artwork that you absolutely love. And something that
you're certain you'll continue to love for years into the future.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Another
mistake that many people make is believing the they have to select a
design offered by their chosen tattoo studio. If you choose a reputable
artist, they'll be able to create a tattoo from any design that you take
along with you.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In fact, this is one of the best ways to get the right tattoo.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Browse
the internet where you can find thousands of high quality tattoo
designs to choose from. Most cost less than $20. Take time from the
comfort of your own home to decide which design you want. Take a few
days to think about the designs that you like. Then, once you've made up
your mind, print out both the color reference guide and the tattoo
stencil and take them to your chosen artist.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This option is much
more relaxed, and you're much more likely to select the right design. It
certainly beats picking a design on the spot when you're waiting in the
tattoo studio.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>3) Cheap Isn't Always Best</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Whatever happens, make sure that you select a high quality stencil for your tattoo design.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
All
high quality tattoo designs consist of two parts, the main tattoo
design which includes the color reference, and a matching stencil of the
design.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
What many people don't realise, is that the stencil is
applied directly to your skin by the tattooist using a machine caller a
"liner".</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So don't be tempted to do things on the cheap. Buy a
quality tattoo stencil (most cost less than $20). Trying to create a
tattoo from the color reference design or trying to trace a stencil is a
shortcut to a tattoo disaster.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A poor stencil will always lead to
a poor tattoo. Traced stencils are not accurate and will translate into
a shaky looking design. Regardless of how good they are, a tattoo
artist can only quality work from a quality stencil.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>4) Test Your Tattoo First</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Okay,
you've found the tattoo design that you want, but you're not sure where
to place it and what size to go for. Do you take a risk?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
No.
There are millions of people around the world who wish they'd chosen a
slightly different tattoo design, gone slightly bigger, or placed it
further to the left etc.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So if you want to avoid adding to these regrets, it's important to test your tattoo before you take the plunge.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It's
now possible to get special tattoo test paper that will allow you to
turn your design into a temporary test tattoo. Just print your chosen
design onto the test paper and apply it to your skin.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Then it just
a case of living with it for a day to two and forming your own opinion.
How does it make you feel? Are you happy with the size and the position
that you've selected? Does it catch your eyeline when you're not
looking at it? Is it distracting? And then comes the big question; ask
yourself, "could I live with this for the rest of my life?"</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Testing your intended tattoo is the only way to confirm whether you've made the right decision.</div>

<a href="http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcS6RWououCIVdmwp4rTZhERDm0dk8j-gvE2Dr0c_PDtNrUb2YKlXA&t=1" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img alt="Tattoo" border="0" height="266" id="il_fi" src="http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcS6RWououCIVdmwp4rTZhERDm0dk8j-gvE2Dr0c_PDtNrUb2YKlXA&t=1" style="padding-bottom: 8px; padding-right: 8px; padding-top: 8px;" title="Tattoo" width="190" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It may be your first time, or it may be your tenth time, but in every
case, you should review your tattoo after care instructions prior to
getting your new tattoo. You might wonder about the logic about looking
at the instructions before getting your new tattoo, but it is like
baking a cake, you just don't want to make any mistakes with these
instructions because new tattoos are open wounds and susceptible to
infection.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You
must be attentive to your new tattoo, and keep it as clean as possible
to ensure that it heals as cleanly as possible so you prevent infection
and end up with the nicest looking tattoo possible.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
While the
healing stages of a tattoo will be as unique to each individual as there
are people in this world, the tattoo healing process does follow a
general pattern. The specifics of each tattoo's healing process will
depend on the different skin type of the individual, the location of the
tattoo on the body, an the techniques of the tattoo artist. These
factors can all cause a variance in the healing process from individual
to individual.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You will be given aftercare instructions by your
tattoo artist. These aftercare instructions differ from artist to
artist. My recommendation to you is if in doubt about anything, always
go back to your tattoo artist before seeking the help of a doctor. Your
tattoo artist can take a look at your tattoo and tell what to do if
their is a problem to correct any healing problems.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If your tattoo
artist cannot help, they should send you for medical attention from a
doctor. If they do not, then of course, you must go yourself to make
certain that your health is not at risk. This is your responsibility.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Many
times doctors don't know much about tattoos and will prescribe
unnecessary medications that may harm your tattoo's healing process.
Some doctors may even be biased against tattoos. That is why I suggest
that you go to the tattoo artist first if you suspect their is a healing
problem with your new tattoo. The artist works with tattoos day in and
day out and is familiar with the best way to heal their work.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When
you leave the tattoo studio, you will have a bandage on your new tattoo
to protect it from outside contact. This bandage should be removed 2- 3
hours after getting your tattoo. Your tattoo may bleed a little for
the first 24 hours, remember, your new tattoo is akin to an open wound.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Before
you remove your bandage, make sure to wash your hands with soap and
warm water, in between the fingers, and under the fingernails. Then dry
your hands with a clean paper towel. Do not use any old towel that is
laying there, or even a clean towel as lint may be transferred to your
hands.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Make sure you have not let a large amount of blood dry on
your bandage so that it sticks. Be very, very gentle as you remove your
bandage so as not to start the tattoo bleeding again. If you just rip
off your bandage, you can mess up the appearance of your new tattoo, and
you don't want to do that, now do you?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Wash your tattoo gently,
very gently with anti-bacterial soap and water to clean it. Do not
scrub your tattoo, do not use a washcloth, or anything else other than
your fingers or hand to clean the tattoo. Do not rub, but "pat" the
tattoo as you wash it. Then, when you are finished, pat the tattoo dry
with a clean dry paper towel. Or, use clean toilet paper even, if you
don't have any paper towels on hand.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Let your tattoo air dry for 15 minutes or so. This will promote healing.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
After
your tattoo has dried, apply a few drops of Emu Oil to your tattoo.
The presence of essential fatty acids along with the hyper-oxygenation
of Emu Oil naturally increases the circulation to the applied area which
is why Emu Oil works so well and so quickly to heal.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Even though
it is an oil, it has been proved that Emu Oil does not clog pores
(unlike most commercially made tattoo aftercare products that are
petroleum based), therefore allowing the skin to breathe during the
healing process. Emu Oil penetrates through all seven layers of the
skin and is rich in nutrients (essential fatty acids) that feed the skin
to aid in new cell development that can hasten the healing process.
Emu Oil is also a natural emollient keeping the skin moist and pliable.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The
application of the Emu Oil immediately after the tattoo has been
cleaned will also relieve the discomfort and reduce the inflammation and
redness of the new tattoo. Emu Oil will help set the new colors due to
its deep penetrating properties and will help reduce plasma oozing.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Using
Emu Oil 2-3 times a day after repeating the cleaning process while the
tattoo heals will keep the area moist reducing or eliminating the
flaking or scabbing that often occurs as new tattoos heal. Emu Oil can
prevent the need for touch ups which saves the artist time and money,
and makes for a happy tattoo customer.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
New tattoos will look red
and swollen immediately following the tattoo procedure. The tattoo will
continue to appear this way for a few days throughout the tattoo
healing process. Within a week to ten days the skin surrounding the
tattoo should be more back to normal - most tattoos are completely
healed in three weeks time.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
While it is healing it is important not to do the following things or you may damage your tattoo:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
- Do Not scratch your new tattoo</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
- Do Not pick at your new tattoo</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
- Do Not expose your tattoo to sunlight or tanning beds under any circumstances</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
- No swimming, hot tubs or baths the first two weeks after getting your new tattoo</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
- Do Not shave the tattooed area for at least 30 days following the tattoo procedure</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
- Only touch your tattoo with clean hands, do not let others touch your tattoo</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Not
only is Emu Oil good for healing new tattoos, it is good for restoring
older, aged, sun damaged tattoos as well. This is due to the natural
hyper-oxygenation of Emu Oil which brings blood and oxygen to the
surface of the skin. This, coupled with Emu Oil's ability to moisturize
through all seven layers of the skin, allows users to see quick results
when the oil is applied to older tattoos.</div>
