Im fully sleved out from shoulder's to wrist's, with a full back peice & my upper chest has large peices on both sides ,i have'nt had a new tat in about 20 years now.
Get what ya like but stay the fuk away from fly by night tattooists who run small shops,if they havent been in business for decades take a big pass,like anything else skill comes with time & an artists skill might not become evident for 10 years or better,as you get older skin starts to stretch,colors fade & everything starts to get dull & blurry.
This is where real skill comes into play,too deep & the blood stream washes the ink away quickly & not deep enough & the image spreads & dissapears quicker.
I couldnt be paid money to get a tat from one of those kids they show on tv tattoo shows,those guys are too green,take your time & find a qualified artist,where im located the best artists have been in business for decades,in small funky little shops,the new kids all have flashy shops with cool names,maybe even a few west coast chopper bikes or big dogs parked out front to look real cool,my advice is to look past all the flash & check out the artists long term rep.
