So many people are talking about their favorite celebrity's tattoos. There are a number of things to discuss pertaining to this matter. The first thing that comes to
mind is that your favorite celebrity today will most likely not appeal to you at all in five years or so. Guess what, your tattoo will still be there long after you've lost interest in this ever so talented singer or actor, comedian, politician etc. Also worth mentioning is the fact that it is just not cool to copy Johnny Depp's bad tattoos.
Angelina Jolie, Christina Aguilera, Pamela Anderson, Charlize Theron, Anna Kournikova, Jenna Jameson, Kate Hudson, Brad Pitt, Nicholas Cage, The Rock, Usher, Michael Jordan and even Robert De Niro all have tattoos. The list of tattooed celebrities is endless. Almost everybody has at least one tattoo somewhere on their body, it seems.
While there are infinite choices when it comes to tattoo designs, it seems that most people that visit our studio prefer to be original. Flower tattoos, dragon tattoos, cross tattoos, angel tattoos, butterfly tattoos and heart tattoos are very popular tattoo designs. These are images that people already identify with tattooing
because this is what they are accustomed to seeing on others. You don't see a lot of people running around with a toilet plunger tattoo! However, if you are a plumber, this might be an excellent choice for a custom tattoo design.
Guys seem to be more interested in representing their vocation in the form of body art. Firemen like to get fireman tattoos. Police officers like policemen tattoos.
Auto mechanics get pistons and cars tattooed.
Girls usually want something feminine. Star tattoos, cherry tattoos, dragonfly tattoos and fairy tattoos have been popular with the ladies for some time now.
Hairdressers like scissor tattoos. Strippers like stripper tattoos! Anyway, you get the point.
The point I am trying to make here is the tattoo world is full of choices. The shop you decide to work with, the artist you decide to work with, and of course the ideas you choose. If you think you have an original idea, it's probably already been done. But don't let that stop you. Find a competent, safe, friendly artist in a super clean shop and start working on your next tattoo.
A custom designed tattoo is no more expensive than a tattoo flash piece you pick off the wall at the street shop you walk by at your favorite tourist spot. If you want to be original, do a little research first before just stopping in and picking your tattoo off the wall or copying the tattoo of your favorite celebrity. It's permanent, so it's worth the extra effort of shopping around.
