Full Sleeve Tattoo Ideas

By Albert Patterson


Tattoo sleeve ideas involve either large tattoos or bunches of small random designs grouped together to cover most of the arms of their wearers. Usually carrying a centralized theme, these tattoo sleeve ideas are considered serious and committing tattoo styles that begin from the shoulder and continue down.

There are a number of things for consideration before opting for tattoo sleeve ideas involving full arms of art despite their continuous rise in popularity especially among women who show great enthusiasm on getting these tattoos.

The first consideration in nurturing tattoo sleeve ideas is the tattoo placement and size. There are three choices for sleeve tattoos, that is, getting the whole arm covered by the tattoo, just half of the arm or only a quarter of the arm.

Naturally, a tattoo artist can assist in making the decision as to the scale and placement of tattoo sleeve ideas. As a precautionary measure, people start their tattooing endeavour with just a few randomly placed tattoos. Later, these tattoos are bridged together to become one significant piece.

A full sleeve tattoo will most likely take a couple of weeks to complete (sometimes even months or longer). This largely depends on how elaborate the design is and pain tolerance. It is important that you allow healing time from swelling to get the best results.

A common technique that is used to achieve a flowing tattoo, is to add backgrounds to existing tattoos. Popular backgrounds include flame tattoos, smoke and swirls.

If on the other hand, you're thinking of getting a sleeve tattoo from scratch, then the world is literally your oyster because you have total freedom as to what type of tattoos you can choose. Another great thing is that this type of work never goes out of style. It's stood the test of time and seems to always be popular, unlike other styles such as tribal.
