A GOOD ARTIST WILL SAY NO

If you're looking for support for your burning desire to get a neck tattoo, you probably won't get it from your local tattoo parlor unless you're older and have a steady job. A lot of artists flat-out refuse to tattoo necks, faces, and hands for young people because they know it could affect the rest of their lives.

“I don't feel like at 18 you understand the risk of that,” Leever says. “That's huge. I feel from a moral and ethical standpoint, I could do this and get paid however much, but totally change or ruin this kid's life.”

According to one recent survey, 61% of HR managers said a tattoo would hurt a job applicant's chances of getting hired.Some say that I am  turning away money. But I sleep better at night knowing that I wasn't responsible for screwing up their future with a inexperienced permanent decision.

Whatever your age or employment status, there are some tattoos artists just won't do, either because it's not their specialty or they know it won't look good or heal well. The professionals will be honest about this.

Small, intricate designs might not age well, and finger tattoos won't last. A good artist will warn you about these potential complications and maybe even refuse the work. Because so much of their business relies on referrals, their art is an advertisement, so it better be good. A good artist will tell you no because your money is not worth their name,.

But this isn't always true, especially for less-experienced artists looking to make as much money as possible. They probably didn't train under somebody that taught them well, It's become this cash-cow industry where people open up a shop that know nothing about tattooing and hire a bunch of people who don't know anything about tattooing and it's just about making money.

Although trendy right now, hands, face , neck tattoos just don't age well, and getting them at a younger age only makes it worse. We have gone back to the old rule of saying no to hands, faces, necks unless you are heavily covered. ( very rare exceptions apply.)

Emotionaly charged tattoos should wait a year before seeking an artist, such as memorials heartache etc. The pain  or joy of a situation can fog up the choice and your judgement. For memorial, there are whats called tombstone memorials, That signify the loss. For example. cross rosary birth and death dates. I suggest that the client finds a happier memory that will bring a smile in remembrance, not a reminder of the loss. Even take a moment and think of what the deceased would choose as a warm memory.

Remember, DO YOUR RESEARCH. THINK before you ink.
