Choosing Tattoo Designs For Girls

Cool cross tattoo designs are also a big favorite among girls and women who are interested to get ink done. But upon making your decision on which tattoo design to go for, there are still a couple of decisions that you got to make. First, which part of the body you would have the tattoo done and how big would the tattoo be?

With regards to placement, there are some considerations that you need to make when choosing where you would want the tattoo done. First, what is the shape of the tattoo design? Is the design triangular? Oval? Circular? Keep in mind that a horizontal tattoo design would make any part of your body that it is tattooed on appear wider. A vertical tattoo design on the other hand will make the part of the body it is tattooed on appear longer. Do you like the tattoo to be seen in public? Or would you rather keep it hidden? Would you still want to be able to wear a sexy backless dress at an office function perhaps and still be able to conceal your tattoo?

When you are inside a tattoo shop, the tattoo artist will be able to give you tips on where you can have tattoos made as well as help you choose among different flash; from cool cross tattoo designs to cute as well as discreet and dainty butterfly body art. Regardless of the design and the location of the tattoo on your body, the tattoo artist would be happy to stencil a specific design that you have already chosen.

A tattoo, ideally, must be recognizable by someone who is standing a few feet away from it. Usually tattoo artists would prefer doing a bigger tattoo rather than a small one. Bigger tattoos would give the tattoo artist more room for shading, and is actually far easier to outline and add in details. And people who get tattoos find that it is more fulfilling to get one very recognizable and striking tattoo rather than three small scattered ones.

Which now leads us to I think the most important and make or break question of all: how much money would your tattoo cost? Generally, tattoo artists charge by the piece or they charge by the hour. An experienced tattoo artist can merely look at a design and can tell you how long it would take to tattoo it and how much it would cost. Per hour charging is usually done when you go in and have a large custom made design tattooed; one that would need more than one session to complete (ouch!). Nevertheless, keep in mind that this is body art we're talking about so do not go and scrimp on it.

After all, you would be stuck with needles and really, would you risk going to cheap tattoo shops to save money only to find out that you have contracted some sort of infection afterwards? Cool cross tattoo designs as well as several other design ideas are plenty, you need to determine first though, where you want to have it done and how much you are willing to pay for it.
