Choosing Your Tattoo Placement: A Practical Guide

Placement shapes how a tattoo looks, moves and fits into your life. Thinking it through before you request a design leads to a piece you will love for years.

Visibility

Consider when you want your tattoo to be seen — every day, or only when you choose to show it.

Size and flow

Designs look best when they follow the shape of the body. Your artist can adapt your idea to the area you have in mind.

Planning for the future

If you may add more tattoos later, mention it. Your artist can leave room for future pieces to connect.

The tattoo request form asks for placement and size. Add reference photos and your artist will advise you.
