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.

Using only black ink at different dilutions, this style achieves a photographic quality with rich shadows and soft highlights. Black and grey work is versatile enough for portraits, nature scenes, and symbolic imagery.

The ribcage offers a private placement that only shows when the wearer chooses. Its curved surface adds dimension to designs, though the area is known for being one of the more sensitive spots to tattoo.
