For some reason, the size of the tattoo is something that a lot of first timers never really consider. Many assume that their tattoo will be the exact size of the design they have found online while others believe that the tattoo artist ultimately decides.
How do you measure for a tattoo?
Start by measuring the height and width of the design you want to get. Next, convert it into inches – tattoos are almost always measured in inches and square inches. So when you work out what you want, make sure you make a note of your tattoo size in inches. Lastly, multiply the height by the width to get the square inch size.
