When considering getting a tattoo, it is important to do your research and find a solid tattoo shop with great tattoo artist. A professional tattoo artist will make the experience enjoyable and rewarding, and they will create a tattoo that you will love for years to come. And this is what you can expect when you get a tattoo at Electric Street Tattoo.

  • Communication: A good tattoo artist will be very communicative throughout the design process. They will listen to your ideas and feedback, and they will be able to explain their ideas and suggestions clearly. A bad tattoo artist will be more dismissive of your ideas, and they may not be able to explain their work in a way that you understand.

  • Creativity: A good tattoo artist will be able to take your ideas and turn them into a unique and creative design. They will be able to offer suggestions and modifications to your design, and they will be able to help you create a tattoo that is truly one-of-a-kind. A bad tattoo artist will simply copy and paste a design from their portfolio, or they will try to force you into getting a design that you don't really want.

  • Skill: A good tattoo artist will have the skill and experience to create a tattoo that is both beautiful and long-lasting. They will use high-quality inks and needles, and they will take the time to do the work properly. A bad tattoo artist may use cheap inks and needles, and they may rush through the tattooing process, which can lead to poor results.

  • Cleanliness: A good tattoo studio will be clean and sanitary. The tattoo artist will wear gloves and a mask, and they will use sterilized needles and equipment. A bad tattoo studio may be dirty and unsanitary, which can increase the risk of infection.

Here are some additional tips for getting a good tattoo design experience:

  • Do your research: Ask your friends and family for recommendations, and look for reviews online. We have a 4.9 rating on Google Reviews LINK

  • Meet with the artist in person: This will give you a chance to see their work and get a feel for their personality.

  • Be clear about your expectations: Communicate your ideas and what you are looking for in a tattoo.

  • Be prepared to pay for quality: A good tattoo is worth the investment.

  • Be patient: The tattooing process can take several hours.

  • Take care of your tattoo after it is done: Follow the artist's instructions for aftercare.
