Default Don't permanently ruin your skin and artwork

The most common newbie error that can permanently ruin your skin and
artwork.
Now listen closely, this is something that's extremely important.
You need to know the skill level of the artist that you'll be working
with BEFORE you get inked! And I mean you REALLY need to know how good
(or bad) the artist you're hiring is!
Not exactly the earth-shattering advice you were expecting?
I know, but hear me out, and take a minute to consider this stunning
fact...
Clinton Sanders, a tattooed professor at the University of
Connecticut, has studied body alteration practices and tattooing
extensively...
He states that 22% of those who are tattooed regret the technical
quality of their ink. Which means they picked a poor artist. Don't let
this happen to you!
Be sure you ask your friends for a reputable artist. Ask to see their
portfolio. Look for pictures of highly detailed and razor sharp
tattoos. Don't settle for mediocre results.
My point is, be careful about selecting an artist. Make sure they are
good, great. You only have one shot at getting it right, so do some
research first.
But the secret to a great tattoo goes beyond the artist...
