Tattoos that feature really detailed work, using shadows and light to show dimension, make beautiful statements. Especially tattoos that feature nautical elements, or animals, with elaborate shading because you can really see the tattoo come to life.

#10 Ignoring Aftercare

If you’re going to take your new back piece to the tanning beds the next day, that’s your business. But don’t complain (about your artist or to your artist) that the colors have faded or you’ve gotten a nasty infection. Most likely, you will be given a tattoo aftercare sheet at the parlor, and your artist will be happy to answer any questions you have. Otherwise, that beautiful piece of art could get seriously ruined.

#8 Tattoos that follow veins

If you haven’t noticed yet, it’s often the little details that make tattoos more attractive, and in this case having the tattoo taper off into a vein is a nice touch. Trees have so many different meanings in tattoos and seeing that nature is literally melding into someone’s veins can send a pretty strong message. The angles of these kinds of tattoos are also really masculine, bringing attention to muscle definition.

#6 Tattoos that show a scene

Wraparound tattoos are really creative and the use of dots to show dimension really help these kinds of tattoos stand out. Since these kinds of tattoos curve around the arm or leg, it encourages men and women to stop and look around the whole area to get the full story. Tattoos like these show time and dedication, as well as a story.
