Very informative October 17, 2006

I am a 44 yr old mom, I'll be getting my first tattoo tomorrow night. I'm excited, still a little nervous, but a lot better informed about what will be happening since I read this book. I'd suggest it to anyone about to get a tattoo or just in the planning stages.
Great Gift (so I kept it) September 24, 2005
9 out of 10 found this review helpful
The first thing I did was read all the trivia stuff sprinkled throughout the book. It's packed with all kinds of little information points. I couldn't stop myself. Then I looked at all the pictures and started reading all the cool advice columns. I bought it as a gift for somebody who likes tattoos but ended up keeping it and then having to buy another! I've been thinking about getting a tattoo for a long time and this book is just what I needed to really get me going. Maybe that's why I picked it up in the first place? My friend really liked their copy too, by the way.
A good book for a tattoo "virgin". December 9, 2006
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
I ordered this book before getting my first tattoo, but I really didn't read most of it after getting my ink. I found this book to be very helpful and informative.
Out of all of the tattoo books that I ordered, this is the only one that had the helpful information that I was looking for.
This book covers everything from tattoo history and historic figures with tattoos, to tattoo etiquette and even the what-you-need-to-know-about-your-tattooist.
This book is a must have for anyone seriously considering getting a tattoo.
 Good Primer on the Tattooing Process January 9, 2007
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This book does an adequate job of explaining the overall process of pursuing a tattoo, from a vague concept to a piece of permanent art embedded in your dermis.
If you're looking for a lot of design examples, this is not the book for you.
However, there is a chapter in this book devoted to the "method" of picking a design; narrowing down your choices, where to look for examples, and other tips that are very useful for someone who is completely in the dark in regards to a 'final' concept.
This book also contains a lot of tattoo trivia and jargain which will appeal to those who are interested in tatoo history/terminology/etc.
Great Information! February 24, 2006

I really enjoyed this book, I had already gotten my first tattoo but this provided alot of infromation and explaination that I craved. I am still looking for a good Kanji explaination book though.....
