Realistic Shark under Blue Water Tattoo

 I seem to do a lot of people's first tattoos, and this was one of them. She sat great for the three hours it took to complete this small 4x5 inch (approximate size) tattoo on her forearm. The trick to getting tattooed, and this applies to your first or hundredth time, is to be in good health, and rested beforehand, also staying relaxed during the whole process. Drinking a lot of water (in general, not just before or after getting tattooed) helps your body heal faster believe it or not! And finally, just be patient! The results are always worth the discomfort that inevitably comes with getting tattooed. Because of my client's patience, I was able to add the details that make this tattoo more realistic. Another thing to remember when getting your first tattoo is, get what you really want! Don't settle for "something small" to "test it out". All the pain, discomfort, permanency, acceptance or judgment by others will be a factor in every tattoo you get, so just get what you want because in the end you are the one who has to like it and the only one who will live with it.

"I can say without reservation Gabe Ripley's webinar, and the information presented, was one of the keystones to my career choices and direction the last year. I often quote much of what I learned not only to others, but to myself as well as a reminder to stay on track. I've taken the webinar twice and will purchase it if ever made available on dvd. I can't recommend it highly enough."

– Ian McKown

"I am so happy with the redesign. You’ve exceeded my expectations and it’s been a great experience working with Aaron, the designer. I felt like we were well matched. The site reflects the aesthetic I was trying to create and everything was done rather quickly. The channels of communication were open, I could tell I was being listened to and I think the cohesion of my site reflects that. I’m very happy with the look and function of adamlauricella.com -Thank you Gabe, Brian, Aaron and the rest of TattooNOW.com”

– Adam Lauricella

"With social media always changing, the importance of a professional website is imperative. I loved the design inspiration package they had me fill out to describe how I wanted my website to look. They were able to take my concepts and visualize them for me into a site that really felt individual and personal. I love that I can easily access and publish new news items and photos in an instant through the TattooNOW website. The staff is always professional, friendly and easy to reach. TattooNow has helped me reach a wider audience, allowing me to do more of the work I love!”

– Mallory Swinchock
