I've been thinking about getting a tattoo. What are some tips for choosing a tattoo artist?

1. Research your tattoo artist online and read reviews from other clients.
2. Visit the studio in person to get a better feel for the environment, staff, and artwork on display.
3. Ask questions about the artist's qualifications and experience.
4. Get a price quote before committing to anything.
5. Look at the artist’s portfolio and make sure it aligns with your ideas.
6. Consider how often you plan to get inked and if the cost of the procedure is reasonable.
7. Make sure to check the shop’s policy regarding aftercare and any restrictions on where or when you can have the tattoo done.
