Tattooing is a very tricky ball game. One moment while you are sitting in the tattoo parlor, getting a tattoo done, you think it will suit your taste and the very next moment when you step out of the parlor you find that the tattoo does not look as attractive as you has expected it to be.
The reasons behind this sudden revelation are many and multifaceted. While there are not many people who actually care about the kind of tattoo design which they are choosing, even tattoo artists are not honest enough to tell them frankly whether the design is suiting their personality or not.
In order to save yourself from the agonies of this design mismatch, there are a few things to know which can help you a lot in deciding the right design for tattoos for yourself. The fact that tattoo removal is such a clumsy, time-taking and risky affair makes it even more important to look for the kind of tattoos that should be avoided at any cost.
The first kind of tattoos that you should avoid are the names. Getting the name of your beloved fiancee or girlfriend can at once sound very exciting but in due course of time, it may be fraught with all kinds of risks. Nobody has a hold over the future. Who knows about that fine morning when your girlfriend would dump you forever? And then, her name inked on your skin would be just like the rub of salt over the wound. Would you ever want to have that burning feeling? Relationships, at times are very conditional affair. You don’t have many people your life who love you unconditionally. Therefore, unless the name which you are going to get inked on your skin is of your dad, mom or sister, do not go for names!
Next in this list is the turn of logos! If you are a fan of a particular logo related to certain sports team or company then you might want to for getting that tattoo inked on your forehand. But wait! Just imagine the scene ten years down the line when that team or the company would have changed that logo with a new one. The logo on your hand will then appear very out of place and obscure. If you want to show your love for your favorite team then you should try to look for other tangible designs.
