Is there a certain photoshop that I can get a free trial of to help me design tattoos?
Or does anyone have any ideas for a sleeve? I already have a Sailor Jerry anchor on my left forearm. I am getting a gypsy girl on my upper left arm this weekend. I want to stick with old school designs. Let me know if you have any tips, ideas, or anything! It could all help and be appreciated. Thanks!

Answer
None that I'm aware of. It all comes out of your artist's brain and onto paper.
Either draw it out roughly or find some similar ideas on line. Let your artist know what style you want and see what they come up with. If you don't like what they drew up they can always change it for you.

How much does a typical tattoo cost?

Village L

I want to get a tattoo, but through all my research on designs I realized I dont have a clue as to how much these things cost. I dont know if its $50 or $1000 I know I want to get a top of the line one form a really good artist so how much should I expect to pay??


Type of tattoo I want:

Classic 1940's style pin up girl on my arm. With good color.

Answer
I live in Los Angeles and have several tattoos. My experience is that tattoos work out to about $100 per hour. Your design sounds like it would take about an hour. Don't forget to factor in a tip if you really like the artist.

What are some cool white ink tattoo ideas? (Any pros or cons to this particular color of ink?)?

Lovely

So, I've always wanted a tattoo, but I want to do it when I'm 18 (16 now) and professionally.


I saw some pictures I thought they all look surprisingly classy and elegant. I thought of a few advantages such as they are harder to see (so good for work and parents won't flip out) and they seem to look pretty good.

So I was thinking of maybe a tribal design on my arm (girl btw), or my tribe on my wrist (I'm half white and half aboriginal. Cree and proud). But, I saw some other cool designs like bamboo on the leg and some elegant shoulder design.

It will be my first tattoo, so I wanna start off small. Also, how much would a small one cost? Like, on my wrist of something?

Any idea insight or anything would be much appreciated!!

Answer
White ink tattoos are ridiculous to me (no offense.) If you don't want anyone to SEE the tattoo, why are you getting tattooed?

My husband has been tattooing for fifteen years and hates doing them, for the simple fact that people can't actually see them, they have to get touched up numerous amounts of times, and with what the cost of a bottle of white ink is he has to hike up the price of the tattoo. So, okay.. you have your 'advantages', but think of the disadvantages as well. The sun will turn the white ink yellow - it does in just about everyone, and the artist will only cover the first touch up, not the five that follow. But anyways..

He had a customer about a week ago who got all of her kids astro signs tattooed on her wrist in white ink. (You said you wanted something small on your wrist). The tattoo total was only about three inches down the wrist, and she was charged $200.

Just remember when getting them done it will be hard to find an artist who wants to do them, and who will do them for a reasonable price.

Good luck.
