This guide focuses on choosing a clear idea, planning size and placement, and setting realistic expectations for the session and healing. A little planning now saves regret later and makes the experience smoother.

Sketch-style tattoos replicate the look of pencil or pen drawings, often including visible construction lines and loose strokes. The intentionally unfinished quality gives the design an artistic, work-in-progress feel.

The upper arm is a classic tattoo placement with enough space for medium to large designs. It's easy to cover with a short sleeve and serves as a natural starting point for a half or full sleeve.
