01

Let the body lead

A strong design follows the body instead of sitting on it like a sticker. Your artist can adapt the composition to the area’s natural flow.

02

Think about scale

Fine details need room. Bring your desired size to the consultation so the artist can recommend an approach that will read clearly over time.

03

Consider your day-to-day

Work, clothing, sports and sun exposure can all affect where a tattoo feels most comfortable and practical.

04

Try the placement first

Use a temporary outline or reference on the area, live with it for a few days, then decide with more confidence.
