Avoid Tattoo Regret By Thinking About Your Tattoo

There was an article published recently by a tattoo design company which makes some great suggestions about how to make sure that you choose a meaningful tattoo. This is important because the more thought that you put in to getting your tattoo, the less likely it is that you''re going to have tattoo regret. It''s great that there''s laser tattoo removal to help you erase your tattoo mistakes but it''s far better to prevent the need for tattoo removal in the first place. The key to avoiding tattoo regret is to think about the tattoo for awhile before getting it, never get a tattoo spontaneously. You should try to find a tattoo that is meaningful to you - and one that will continue to be meaningful over time. This means that new relationships, current fads and something you just got interested in are not good sources of inspiration for a tattoo. Relationships that are permanent (children and parents for example), things that will always be true about you (like your birth sign) and lifelong passions are good examples of tattoos that won''t lead you to consider tattoo removal in most cases. Question of the Day: Does the prevalence of tattoo removal today make you think that it doesn''t matter so much if you get a tattoo that you don''t like? photo link
