You may think that a fairy tattoo is too girly for you because, well, a fairy is certainly a very girly design. However, have you ever considered that you can do more with a fairy design than simply turn it into a fairy. Like most works of art, you should consider a fairy as a starting point for a larger, more beautiful design - designs for guys and girls alike. Listen up, because here's how you can take an otherwise girly fairy design and turn it into a tattoo that is suitable for a man or a woman.
The first step in creating your own unique design is to start with one of the many fairy tattoo galleries that are abundant on the internet and in tattoo parlors. These galleries are essentially libraries of stock fairy tattoos that you can get as they are or you can modify to fit your needs. Find a fairy or two or three that you find attractive and you're all set. What you are going to be doing is using the fairy as the foundation for a more appealing tattoo.
Now you may be thinking at this point that the rest of the steps are going to be far beyond your artistic skill - but you really don't need any artistic skill at all to customize a tattoo. You have a few options at this point in the tattoo design process. First, you can stick with the fairy tattoos that you picked from the fairy tattoo galleries or you start to customize them. If you're going to stick with the original design, you're done and you can quit reading. Otherwise, break out your pencil and start sketching.
Think of all of the different ways you can customize the stock fairy tattoo. You could add it as part of a larger picture, maybe a forest scene or something of that sort. Or you could take the fairy's pose and use it as a pinup design by giving the fairy different clothes or a different setting. Alternatively you can use the general idea of the fairy to create your own original fairy tattoo. The possibilities for what you can do are endless, and even if you have no artistic ability to speak of, you can still bring in the stock picture and write down your ideas for how you want it to look. A good tattoo artist will be able to translate your ideas to their paper and eventually create you a completely original tattoo based on what you discovered in the fairy tattoo galleries.
