5 tattoo tips ↓💉 🎨 Research your studio AND specific artist: This is the biggest one. Don’t just book somewhere because it’s cheap or nearby. Every artist has a different style so make sure their work actually matches the tattoo you want. 🧴 Numbing cream is NOT cheating: Just check with your artist first because some studios only allow certain brands and some artists prefer to apply it to the area themselves. 🍬 Bring something sweet to suck on: Sounds dramatic but tattoos can make you feel a bit shaky - especially if it’s your first one. A fizzy drink or sweets during honestly helps so much and keeps you focused on something else. 👕 Wear comfy clothes: You want easy access to the area being tattooed without sitting uncomfortably for hours. Oversized/comfy outfits are always the way. 🩹 Follow the aftercare properly: Your tattoo looking good long term comes down to healing properly. Keep it clean, moisturised and do not pick at it no matter how tempting it is. #FirstTattoo #TattooTips #TattooHealing #ManlyTattooStudio SydneyTattoo
