If You’re Going to Get a Tattoo – Be Safe!

Tattoo Designs | Comments (0) admin @ 8:22 pm

If you’ve decided that you’re going to join the growing numbers of people with tattoos, it’s important to make sure you’re getting your tattoo safely. You may have heard the rare horror stories of people who’ve contracted HIV or Hepatitis from getting a tattoo.

While it isn’t the norm, it is an unfortunate possibility if you aren’t careful. Here are the safety precautions you must take before getting your tattoo:

• Go to a reputable artist and tattoo shop. Ask around. If you see someone who has a tattoo that you like (or is particularly well done), ask the person for the shop or artist’s name. Most people don’t mind being asked who did their tattoo. Go online or search the yellow pages. Many shops advertise their sterilization processes and procedures, or advertise that their artists have taken special courses provided by the local health department.

Now, before you say, “But I LOVE my boyfriend,” just take some time to consider what you’re doing. Tattoos are pretty much permanent. They hurt going on, and hurt worse coming off.

A Look at Zodiac Tattoo Designs

Reader Articles | Comments (0) Guest Author @ 1:33 am

The zodiac to this day remains to be a captivating subject for people. It has been thought of as something that is – either directly or indirectly – linked to a person’s destiny and characteristic. The 12 signs of the zodiac – Aquarius, Pisces, Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius and Capricorn – are often used to symbolize an individual’s personality. Hence, it is not surprising that some people have taken the zodiac as a motif for tattoo designs. Most people use their own zodiac signs as a tattoo design. Others use the tattoo of loved ones to act as a remembrance for the important people in their lives. For life partners, they have fused two zodiac sign into one and using it to symbolize the relationship.

Double Tube Bracelet

The Double Tube Bracelet is a fabulous piece of Jewelry to add to your collection. It will go with all of your other Body Piercing accessories. The thickness of the bracelet is approximately 1/4 inch. wide and it is available in three different sizes. We measure these bracelets just as we do our Captive Bead Rings which is the inside diameter. To measure for this just lay a ruler across your wrist to determine the size bracelet that you will need. Also to check your measurement you can use a cloth tape measure or a string to measure your neck and then divide that measurement by 3.14 and that will give you the diameter if your neck where a perfect circle. Because the shape of your neck is not an absolute perfect circle this is just used as a way to check your measurements.

Reader Articles | Comments (0) Guest Author @ 10:18 am

Over the passed few decades tattoos have become ever more popular amongst all types of people and age groups. And now you've realised you'd love to have a tattoo emblazoned onto your skin. But before you take the plunge, there are just a few things to consider.

Where should it go? Do you want it to be visible all or most of the time or perhaps have it on display only when you're casually dressed? Don't forget, though, that most people do feel some level of pain during the process of being tattooed. Some parts of the body hurt more than others. If you know that you have a low pain threshold then opt for a small tattoo, at least to start off with.
