As with everything where there is high demand there is also a need for a high supply. In this case, the high demand for tattoos is directly proportional to the high demand for unique tattoo designs. Most people want a tattoo that is different to everyone else's, and the only way to really do this is to design your own tattoo.
You may be asking, do I really have to go through the whole trouble of actually designing my own tattoos. Can't you just walk into your local tattoo parlour and select from a couple of tattoo designs you like? Well, of course you could do that, but do not be disappointed when you walk in the mall the next day and see someone with exactly the same tattoo as yours.

Alright then, so what can you do to increase the chances of having a unique tattoo on your body? You could simply find a couple of tattoo designs you like and then take small parts from each one of them to create your own unique tattoo design. Access to a huge database of tattoo designs, will definitely make it easier for you to come up with your own cool tattoo idea.

Once you have created your tattoo, the next thing is to make sure you get a good tattoist to replicate your design. You might want to shop around a couple of places, observing the tattoists at work and then make your informed decision based on their work. ( By Munyaradzi Chinongoza )
