Cherry Blossom Tattoo
Cherry blossom tattoos are some of the most popular tattoo designs for women currently. The beauty and delicate nature of a cherry blossom can’t be denied. In both Japanese and Chinese cultures the cherry blossom is full of symbolic meaning and significance. Before deciding to get a cherry blossom tattoo design it makes sense to understand the symbolism and deep cultural connections and meaning that this tattoo might hold. After all the best tattoo designs are ones that hold a great deal of symbolic significance. Typically the tattoo that is universally regretted is the one that was gotten while out with a bunch of friends just because they were getting one. So don’t fall into the trap and regret your tattoo later in life. Instead if you are planning on getting a tattoo at least take the time to research the symbolism and meaning behind it and see if it speaks to you and if the ideas are significant in your life.
While many people tend to blend and confuse the Japanese and Chinese culture together from lack of knowledge the two are very different in many ways. Therefore the meaning and symbolism that the cherry blossom holds is different in each culture.
Chinese Cherry Blossom
For the Chinese the cherry blossom is a very significant symbol of power. Typically it represent a feminine beauty and sexuality and often holds an idea of power or feminine dominance. Within the language of herbs and herbal lore of the Chinese the cherry blossom is often the symbol of love.
Japanese Cherry Blossom
For the Japanese the cherry blossom holds very different meaning. The cherry blossom is a very delicate flower that blooms for a very short time. For the Japanese this represents the transience of life. This concept ties in very deeply with the fundamental teachings of Buddhism that state all life is suffering and transitory. The Japanese have long held strong to the Buddhist belief of the transitory nature of life and it is very noble to not get too attached to a particular outcome or not become emotional because it will all pass in time.
The fallen cherry blossom is not taken lightly in Japanese symbolism either. It often represents the beauty of snow and there are many connections made in Japanese literature or poetry to a fallen cherry blossom and snow. This also has been extended to the life of a warrior whose life was ended early in battle.
As you can see in both cultures the symbolism and meaning behind the cherry blossom is very significant and powerful at the same time. It is important to think about these symbols and connect this with what your personally believe the cherry blossom represents. If you still want to get a cherry blossom tattoo and the above meaning from the Japanese culture or the Chinese culture do not speak to you or you’re somehow view the cherry blossom in a very different way then it is okay to still get a cherry blossom tattoo. However, it is always important to know the symbolism before getting a tattoo permanently done.

Gothic tattoos
Gothic tattoos represent some of the most interesting and beautiful forms of tattoo art today. Gothic lifestyle is so individually unique that there are no set standards for designs. Some of the more popular designs include Gothic cross tattoos, pentagram Gothic tattoos, and the ankh gothic tattoo. Gothic tattoos also have quite different styles with old English lettering and complex designs.
Most people that are unhappy with their tattoo got it under pressure on the spur of the moment. It's a good idea to shop around and talk to several Tattoo artists. It's also a very good idea to ask other peopple about their tattoos and where they got them done, what their experience was like, and if they were happy with the person that did it.
By looking at an artists portfolio you can get an idea of the experience they have and if they have worked with complex gothic Tattoos. Look closely at the tattoo pictures for quality clean lines with bright colors that blend smoothly, and clear images. Most artists love to show off their work and it's a great way to meet the person who will be giving you that perfect tattoo.
If a tattoo artist has a bad attitude when you first meet them think how that attitude might be when you're halfway through. Good tattoo artists charge between $70 and $125 an hour. Good tattoos are not cheap, and the cheap ones look cheap.
Take lots of time to pick the perfect artist and tattoo for you. After all, you'll be wearing it for the rest of your life. It's probably not a good idea to let your friend pick a design for you. Never get tattooed if you're under the influence of drugs and alcohol and NEVER let a friend tattoo you.
Don't plan on getting your gothic tattoo the day before you want to show it off. After getting your tattoo it will take about a month to heal. During the first week you'll feel sore, have swelling, irritation and redness. You'll need to keep it clean by washing it several times a day with mild soap and pat dry with clean paper towel. You may want to apply some antibacterial after it's dry. The next 3-4 weeks your tattoo will tend to dry out as the healing process continues. It's also a good idea to keep your tattoo moist to prevent excess scabbing, infection or scarring. Avoid lotions that contain fragrances, artificial color, and other ingredients that may irritate your tattoo. The sun can also reek havoc on your tattoo, try to avoid sun on your new tattoo until fully healed.
