1 Tattoo History

The art of tattooing has been a practice since the beginning of time. Well, not maybe that early, but before civilization takes place. In writing about the history of tattoo, ask yourself first what do you want to know of its story. Here are some questions to help you talk about its history so you can have an idea to write your blog post about tattoos.

 

• Where did tattoos originate?
• How did the ancient people get to discover tattooing? What was the purpose of tattoos?
• How did the people of the past tattoo their bodies before the invention of the tattoo machine?
• What was the most used tattoo design?
• Were there meanings if one person had more tattoos than the other?
• Were tattoos a reward or a punishment?
• Were children allowed to get tattoos?
• Where did the ancient people get their ink?
• What were the ingredients of the ink ancient people were using?
• Did tattoo designs vary from one country to another?

 

Here are some guide questions to give you an idea of how you can you write a tattoo history for your blog. Of course, it is always recommended to research first before going to your computer and start typing so your post will be accurate and to correctly inform your readers.

 2 Tattoo Artists and their Specialties

It is also a good idea to research the top 20 tattoo artists in your country or in your area. Not only their info and where their shop is located but also their specialty. Yes, tattoo artists are good artists but not all of them are good in a specific design.

For example, one tattoo artist is an expert in creating tribal tattoos but not that good in making portraits. So it would be helpful for your readers who are planning to get their (first) tattoo to know where is best for them to go depending on the design they want.

In this way, they will have a good memory on their first tattoo and will not regret it. Also, it is good that the artists you are somehow promoting on your blog have the sterile equipment and clean work area. A clean equipment and area make the people who are planning to get a tattoo feel less anxious if they see the place orderly and clean. Not only you help your readers (and your local tattoo artists) but also your blog as well. How?

It will increase your website’s ranking in your local search engines and that would attract more people to visit your blog. Who knows, the next thing that will happen is to have people and companies sponsoring you. Oh, what a dream!

3 Tattoo Designs & Styles

In connection with the previous one, tattoo designs must also be considered as a blog idea. You could write about different tattoo designs. Yes, there are different designs where people who are planning to get a tattoo can choose from. In writing a blog post about it, you can list down every tattoo design and describe each. In this way, if your readers are wanting to get tattooed in the future, they will know easily what design they will google for. Here are a few ideas about tattoo designs.

 

• Old-school Design vs Modern Tattoo Design
• Tattoo Designs that Women Want
• Top 5 Tattoo Designs for Men
• Small Tattoo Designs
• Wrist Tattoos
• What are Tribal Tattoos?
• Nautical Designs and Styles for your Next Tattoo
• Best Tattoo Designs for Couples

4 Tattoo Techniques

Yes, there are different techniques for creating a tattoo! Not all tattoo artists use the tattoo gun in doing their art. You could make a post wherein you list down all tattooing techniques and their origin.

Also, it is a good idea also to include the countries where the unique techniques are available and the names of the artists who do these techniques. This will be surely helpful to some who are adventurous and want to try getting inked other than the tattoo gun.

 

5 Do You Have a Gang Tattoo?

Gangs are present in almost all countries. And to keep their identity and know their members, some gangs have created their own tattoo designs. This could be a good idea to work on so you can inform your readers what tattoo designs to avoid. This is, first, not getting involved and affiliated with their actions. It would be difficult if someone got a tattoo that is connected to a gang. If, for example, gangs declared war with each other, if that someone’s tattoo was noticed by an enemy gang, their life may be in danger. And that would be the last thing a tattooed person want.

Second, not all gangs are rebellious and hated by society. Some gangs are actually nice and are doing nice deeds to people. You can inform your readers to still avoid the “good gang” tattoo to respect them and their doings.

 

6 Effects of Getting a Tattoo

Of course, modifying your body has an effect on yourself and on people around you. You can write about the positive and negative effects of a tattoo on your body and to others. People who are planning to get a tattoo must know the effects of it so they can prepare themselves physically and emotionally.

Getting a tattoo should not just be a spur-of-the-moment decision as it can heal or scar you. You should also make your readers study themselves first and their culture if getting tattoos is okay. As some people still raise their eyebrows when they see people have tattoos and judge them.

So it would be helpful to your readers the effects of getting a tattoo to think deeply before heading to a tattoo parlor. You could also write about side effects of getting a tattoo on your body. Some people may be allergic to the ink or their skin being sensitive to the needles, you can write about it too so that people who are deciding to be inked can visit their doctors first and be assessed if it is okay for them to get a tattoo.

 

7 Pain-o-Meter

You can get inked anywhere, literally, anywhere on your body. As long as there is skin, that area can be tattooed. So as an idea to write for your website, you can write and make a diagram the areas of the body and their tolerance to pain.

This will let your readers know what design best fit in the area they are planning to be tattooed at. For example, of course, for a first-timer, one might want to be tattooed on the least painful area. Then, after knowing the areas that are not painful, they can then search or think about a design that would look good in that area.

 

8 How Tattoos Work

People who are not in to tattoos might not know how tattoos “get drawn” on one’s skin. That would be a great post for your blog to have a little education how tattoos work. Write about where exactly the ink is getting injected at. Is it on top of the skin or underneath it? Are you scarring yourself when you get yourself a tattoo? Those questions might help you in doing your little research first before writing a post about this idea.

 

9 Hours Before Getting Tattooed

Some people might think that they can go to a tattoo parlor anytime of the day. Well, some tattoo parlors allow walk-ins but most parlors require their clients to make an appointment first. So, you can write some preparations for people before their appointment like what they need to do and eat. Of course, getting tattooed will take time (even long hours for huge tattoos like on the back) so it is necessary to share some information to your readers if they need to eat or not or is it okay to drink coffee before getting inked. This is to avoid them to feel discomfort and not to disturb their artist while the work is being done.

 

10 How to Remove Tattoos

Some people who had tattoos in the past might want to remove their tattoos for different reasons. It might be they had it when they drunk and they didn’t like the design, or the tattoo was so horrible it embarrassed them, or some other personal issues; they just want to get rid of it. You can write a post where you can inform them how they can remove it professionally. Of course, they cannot get rid of it by themselves (unless they are dermatologists) but you can list down who and what they should trust in the removal of their tattoos without getting your body hurt or wounded. You could also include on your post on how they can help their skin to heal fast to get it fair and clear.

 

11 Do You Have Health Issues?

Professional tattoo artists do not just tattoo people for the sake of getting customers and getting paid. They also consider the health of the people. You can write what sicknesses need a go-signal first from a doctor. This is to avoid complications and not to risk their name as well. You can also look for other diseases that must be taken care of by the client and tattoo artist. That is why having a clearance from the doctor is important. Aside from diseases, you could also research first “are pregnant women allowed to get their tattoos?” as an idea. This is to help women who are expecting mothers and wanting to get a tattoo know if it is safe for them and their baby to get inked while the 9-month pregnancy period. These are some ideas if you want to talk about health in making a post related to tattoos.

The tattoo artist might give their suggestions too but as people rely to search first on the Internet might as well write about it too. And not only for the skin color, but they can also decide first too what color style they want. As they will wear that tattoo for a long, long time. Unless they will decide on getting it removed!
