Tattoo Consultant

Now that your consultation is booked, it’s time to prepare. Be sure that you know what you want. You don’t need to have a perfect concrete idea of what your tattoo should look like, but you do need to know what you want the subject matter to be.

A tattoo consultation is usually the first step toward getting a tattoo. It’s an important meeting that generally takes only 10 or 15 minutes, where artist and client exchange important information to prepare them both for the actual tattoo appointment.

To help you decide, look at their portfolio. Of course it’s important to find an artist with good strong line work and well executed tattoos, but you’ll also want to make sure that you like their choices and how they design their pieces. Be sure that their style and artistic ability will compliment your idea. Asking someone who only tattoos traditional skulls and daggers to design your delicate, photorealistic floral tattoo may not yield the best results.
