Meaning of couples tattoos

Some couples tend to be tattooed a tribute to their half on a very visible place of the body. Everyone can say "me too, I can do it" but it takes a lot of courage to engrave this permanent testimony of love. Having tattoos printed for you, especially for a couple, means that you are absolutely sure that you have found the right person for you. Nothing means as well "forever" as a good tattoo. Whether you want to be tattooed or not, it's impossible to deny that couple tattoos are a charming gesture.

Couples tattoos have no other intention than to assemble pure affection from one person to another. They are also used as a symbol of completeness and unity between two lovers. Some of these couples tattoos are a commitment: the two lovers promise to stay together and support each other in difficult times. Other couples decide to get assorted tattoos after marriage, to represent their union for life.

Tattoos of Roman numerals for couples

The tattoos of Roman numerals have become very popular. Many celebrities from the world of music and sports have adopted them. But all that exists comes from a certain world and has a precise origin. Many people have the impression that these tattoos of Roman numerals convey a kind of prestige – but they appeared centuries ago, during the Roman Empire, and were used as a punishment. The Romans used them to mark their slaves and other criminals who had committed barbaric acts.

"Split tattoos" for couples

A split tattoo is a unique design cut into two pieces. The two parts can be placed either on two parts of the body, or even on two different people. These tattoos can have a humorous (double-faceted or hidden message) or artistic purpose. They symbolize a person's ambivalence, their connection to others and their complexity. Split tattoos are usually located on symmetrical limbs such as forearms, feet, legs or hands. However, some artists working on optical effects have successfully used their entire body to show their emotions. A split tattoo can be a risky decision to engage in a particular relationship – at the family level, friendly or, even more dangerous, in love.

Nautical tattoos for couples

This type of tattoos has existed for centuries and never went out of fashion – not once. In this style we find the tattoos of classic sailors – who are making a comeback in recent times – anchor tattoos – which tell the world that you have a strong personality – and even the more complex tattoos of landscapes -which show the sea and its funds. Another nautical tattoo idea is a boat dancing on furious waves. This drawing represents a complicated period of life and reminds the tattooed person that they must stay centered and keep their feet on the ground until this personal storm is over.

Heart tattoos can have many meanings. The heart is a symbol of love, assistance and kindness. A splashed heart symbol can represent a heart filled with love. It is also the true center of the human soul.

Ideal placement of couples tattoos

Couples tattoos can be a wonderful option. This is exactly a type of tattoo made to be printed on the body, like normal body designs, but the difference that exists is that a couple tattoo tends to be incomplete. Just like the matching works, the couple tattoos will be incomplete or show only one character – obviously male or female. Your partner will wear the other half of the tattoo; so, the drawing will be complete when you are together.

The placement of the drawings will depend on where the couple wants them to be tattooed, as well as the type of matching tattoos they envision. Smaller designs are usually placed on smaller areas because they do not contain much detail. What is extraordinary about these tattoos is that they require a great commitment, since they are permanent. That's why couples who decide to make matching tattoos must always remain loyal and be totally committed to staying together forever.

Preparation tips before the tattoo session

Preparing your skin for the tattoo session is very important and can make a big difference when it comes to healing. If your skin has been sunburned or damaged before the session, your appointment should be postponed, otherwise the result could be permanently compromised. Avoid getting a tattoo on scratched skin, red, cut, with crusts or with a rash, or even severe acne.

After being tattooed, you will have to stay away from the sun for a while. If you catch a sunburn or your skin becomes very red, you may have problems. Redness is caused by blood moving near the surface of the skin. When trying to tattoo on reddened skin, the damaged dermis hurts even more. The blood can also dilute the ink when the artist tries to put it under your skin. This will cause some areas of the drawing to fade and may cause bleeding during the entire tattooing process – which could greatly compromise the end result. The tattoo will not have as good a rendition as usual.

Apply sunscreen for several days on the area that you think you have tattooed. Being tanned is good but it is not the healthiest thing and it is not ideal for body art. Cuts, scratches and acne are also to be avoided because of scarring and possible uneven healing. Try to solve these problems as much as possible. Moisturize the skin a few days before the appointment.

Estimation of realization costs and standard prices of torque tattoos

How much does a tattoo cost? There are good reasons for two tattoos with the same design and made by the same artist to have different prices. Many of these factors are obvious at first glance but there are also a lot of less obvious causes that make some tattoos cost a lot more than others. You may regret your decision for life if someone who has just bought a tattoo machine online and does not have much experience makes you pay 20 euros for a tattoo.

But if you go to a tattoo studio and ask an artist who has decades of experience what are his prices, do not be surprised if he tells you he is asking € 200 per hour working. There are many artists with only a few years of experience in the body art field – but there are also many others who have ten years of experience and are still as poor as when they began to practice their profession. So always check the artist's previous work to see if the prices are justified. And do not systematically avoid young artists who might be more talented and ask for less than their elders.

Tattoo Maintenance Tips

Once your tattoo is done, leave the bandage in place for at least three hours. The artist will tell you how long you have to keep it. The bandage collects blood, secretions and ink from the tattoo, so it's best to leave it in place. Do not leave it uncovered and avoid wearing new clothes or expensive clothes above.

Always wash your tattoo several times a day with unscented antibacterial soap. Make sure it is clean to avoid possible infections. Do this for two or three weeks, or until your tattoo is completely healed. And never touch it without washing your hands.
