The artist who repeatedly nails the style you want, at the size you want, on real bodies—not the one with the most followers.
Look for repetition. If you can’t find 10+ solid designs in the style you're looking for, you’re gambling.
Fresh tattoos can look flawless for days. Healed work shows line stability, shading consistency, and how the tattoo actually settles into skin.
Ignore follower count and viral posts. Judge consistency, healed results, placement sense, and whether their portfolio matches your references.
A description of what you want, style, placement, approximate size, 3–5 AR tattoos or reference images, and any must-haves. Short, clear, and specific beats a long story.
AR won’t replace the artist’s judgment, but it will save you from the classic mistakes: wrong placement, wrong size, wrong vibe.
