How to look for tattoos? (self.Blind)
submitted by Adventurous_Ad_9824
So I’m thinking of getting a tattoo. I know what I want on it, but I was wondering how you all have gone about looking for designs. Do you have someone help? Or Google the design in mind?

Probably the tattoo artists can help you with that.

I think scarification would be a cool alternative. If you wanted, you could get something in braille! To me, that would be what I would do.

I'm not visually impaired, so maybe that was insensitive or dumb sounding. If it was, I apologize. And if you could, please explain a better or less inflammatory way to say it. Thanks!

Good luck to me finding someone who knows Braille though. I might so some digging

Not dumb at all! Ironically I never thought of that lol!

You're brave! I want permanent make-up, but everyone seems to have a different opinion about the style I should get. For me, it's more about impressing others, so I haven't done it. But if it's just for you, maybe find an artist who will work with you on the design and come up with something you're truly happy and comfortable with.

What’s permanent makeup? Just curious. Or was that facetiousness lol?
snow671 3 points 2y ago
It's make-up tattooed on, usually eye liner and eye brows

Oh that’s cool!

Hopefully, with any luck, I can find somebody who knows Latin. I have a thing for ancient Rome, lol!

Hey! So I have three tattoos and with each one, I knew what I wanted but got friends to help me pick out the precise design. I also spoke to the tattoo artist about what I wanted and they helped me to tweak any designs that I submitted to them if that makes sense? If you need a hand with anything, feel free to message me X

Talk to your tattooists.

Call them up and explain what's up.

If they don't do your style... they can probably direct you to people who do.

most of the artsy people I know love working with new clients, new ideas, new challenges, and as long as you have decent hygiene and dont whine about payment... you will 100% find some kick ass tattooist to ink, pierce, or scarification you.
