Now that you have your art work it's time to think about the size and the placement of your tattoo, are you looking for a modest shoulder piece or a spectacular full back piece incorporating a natural landscape or water background? While the choice is always personal it may be best to research how such tattoos look on other people in order to get a feel for the impact they create.

Cherry Blossom Tattoo DesignsCherry Blossom Tattoo Designs
Ask yourself does the size do the tattoo justice or would a small blossom fit better, you'll see what I mean as soon as you start to look and get a feel for all the options. Some will just not look right as a large piece while others will be perfect.

Where to Get Your Tattoo:
This is the most important part of your tattoo. First; you find the perfect cherry blossom tattoo in the right color, shade and size to work the best with your skin tone Then the right artist to apply it. This is something you should research very carefully; invite friend's opinions, ask people who have stunning tattoos "where they got them" usually people are happy to refer you to a good artist.

Don't take this part lightly; you will be wearing this tattoo for the rest of your life. So interview all potential tattoo artists, ask to see their portfolio and some of their work.

Remember you don't have to settle for an artist in your town or go with the first artist you meet, a 200 mile drive or a $300 flight is cheap compared to wearing a badly done tattoo for the rest of your life. Be patient and get a cherry blossom tattoo you will be proud of for the rest of your life.

Word Tattoos

Getting words inked on is a GREAT idea for ink. They can be straight forward and to the point, or they can be mysterious and symbolic. Here are 3 common word tattoos to consider getting inked:

1. NAMES.

Names Word TattoosNames Word Tattoos
This word tattoo refers to someone who you want to represent by name. It could be a loved one, someone whom you admire or are a fan of; a pet, girlfriend, husband or wife and much more. It could be more general as well such as the common "mother" tattoo.

Examples of name tattoos: "mother", "ozzy", "jesus", "Frank", "Marge".

2. SAYINGS.
Sayings Word TattoosSayings Word Tattoos

This word tattoo is very popular. It involves taking a saying of some sort (an inspirational quote, a humorous line, or just a one or two words representing something) and getting it inked on as a tattoo. These tattoo sayings can be very powerful as they convey a direct message.

Examples of tattoo sayings: "born to lose", "strength", "live free or die", "believe in yourself".

3. LETTERING.

Lettering Word TattoosLettering Word Tattoos
These tattoos focus on lettering and usually are large with just one or two letters which represent something, like a place or someone's initials, or the initials representing something. Though they can be longer as well. Lettering ink focuses on a rather elaborate type of font. Each letter stands alone as a solid work of tattoo art. Whereas some of the other tattoos mentioned will often be accompanied by separate designs, lettering ink can hold it's own without any other design needed.

Kanji love tattoo symbolJapanese Kanji Tattoos are fast becoming the most popular tattoo design. Japanese Kanji characters are so incredibly artistic and have such mystique that it seems as though they were created ideally for the purpose of tattoos. When you think about the best qualities of a tattoo many words come to mind such as symbolic, mysterious, and meaning.


The beauty of Japanese Kanji tattoos is that each Kanji symbol is an ideographic character, which means is represents an entire object/meaning/symbol. Japanese Kanji symbols have such elaborate definition; each stroke of the symbol must be done in the correct direction and order. Japanese Kanji Tattoos can easily represent nearly any meaning you want. Words such as love, peace, freedom, strength, unity are very popular Japanese Kanji tattoos, as well as loved one's names.

It is a good idea to research your Japanese Kanji Tattoo before visiting your tattoo artist. There are several reasons for this - firstly, Kanji is a different form of language to English, and if you were to choose a Kanji sentence, the order of the words will be in different order to English. Secondly, many tattoo parlors have Japanese Kanji tattoo designs which have been altered by westerners and you will not know until it is too late. Finally, some Japanese Kanji characters have several meanings, and you may think your symbol means one thing, where in fact it means something completely different. Luckily there are websites out there that can help you get the perfect translation.
