Always wait until the skin is fully healed and follow medical advice before tattooing. When to tattoo a scar Most artists recommend waiting until the scar is flat, pale, and stable.

Blackwork tattoos use solid black ink in bold, graphic compositions. The style ranges from large filled areas and heavy patterns to intricate designs that rely on contrast between ink and bare skin.

The shoulder's rounded shape gives tattoos a natural frame, wrapping designs around the deltoid muscle. It's a versatile placement that transitions easily into a sleeve or back piece.
