There are lots of decisions to be made if you are getting a tattoo. The design of the tattoo, the size and the location on your body are all things you must consider. Even if you have decided on a theme, size and location for your tattoo, there are dozens of designs available for most themes.

On option may be to get a temporary tattoo first and see if you like the design. Make sure you keep a picture of the tattoo. If the size, location and design of the temporary tattoo work for you, you can have a permanent tattoo applied. This may not be possible with tattoos that cover large areas like sleeve tattoos. Temporary tattoos are usually fairly small.
