Choose Flash Or Custom Tattoos Toronto

By Judy Sullivan


As many women as men sport tats nowadays. Your doctor and the businessman in suit and tie are often hiding a tat. Ink has become a fashion statement that tells a story. Today more tattoos Toronto are done as custom work than flash. Often flash is a starting point for a custom designed tattoo that tells a story.

Stop by for a consultation before making a decision. This is especially important if you want an original piece of art permanently written on your skin. Ask about safety and health precautions. Ask the tattooer about his/her experience. Ask to see a portfolio of work the artist has already done.

Flash are pictures of pre-designed tats. Although sometimes derided as unoriginal, many have a timeless meaning that speaks to every generation. A heart with the name of a loved one written inside is a timeless symbol of love and devotion. A family tree celebrates family ties. Patriotic and cultural symbols bind a group together. An anchor is a symbol of stability throughout the storms of life. Other popular flash tats are the infinity symbol, a cross, a musical note, a zodiac sign. Butterflies, birds, and flowers can have different meanings to different cultural groups.

Memorials for a deceased loved one are a timeless favorite. Also popular today are script pieces expressing religion, faith, character traits, words of wisdom and inspiration on this strange journey of life. A recent favorite for men is a tat of the family name, usually written in Olde English script. Artistic tattooists can reproduce a realistic portrait as an ink tattoo.

Tattoos can also be permanent makeup to enhance eyebrows, lips, or eyes. They can hide or neutralize skin discolorations. They cover surgical scars, burns, birthmarks, even recreate nipples on reconstructed breasts. Find an artist who has experience in the medical tatting you need.

Motivations for wanting a tat include beauty, art, fashion, individual expression, personal narrative, cultural affiliation, and sexual attraction. Of course some are still the result of an impulsive act, especially when under the influence. Many gangs still sport tattoos to show affiliation. But there's also corporate logos including Harley Davidson, Budweiser, Corona, Chevrolet, Volkswagen, and Ford.

Ink as art has been popularized by the new reality shows of tattoo artists and tattoo competitions. Toronto is home to Northern Ink Xposure (the NIX show), a gathering of artists and vendors that includes artistic competitions. Visit the NIX show to see the process and the possibilities.

When deciding on placement, remember, they're permanent. Many doctors and lawyers have tattoos hiding under their shirtsleeves. Many women are sporting a tat underneath that blouse and jacket. As acceptable as they are, not all workplaces want employees visibly flaunting their personal life journey at work. Choose a design that will have meaning for the rest of your life.

No longer confined to the shady side of town, choose from over 100 shops in the greater metropolitan area. No need to hide your visit. Tattoos Toronto are popular with college students, nurses, doctors, lawyers, businessmen and women too. Even 15% of senior citizens have tats. For 18-29 year old's, that figure jumps to 38%.
