Let’s paint a picture; you’re having a super nice day, it’s sunny and warm outside and you’re going for a walk around the city. All of a sudden you spot a tattoo parlor across the street with a giant sign saying ‘Walk-ins welcome\u201c. And, now you’re intrigued; you’ve been wanting a tattoo for such a long time, but even if you do decide to get a quick tattoo, what would you even choose for a tattoo design. It’s not that you’ve been planning to do this.<\/p>\n

Well, if this sound like something that could happen to you (or if it happened), we’ve got you covered. You don’t have to worry about thinking of a super cool tattoo design right there on the spot; instead, you can always rely on something called flash tattoos.<\/p>\n

But, what are flash tattoos? In the following paragraphs, we’ll talk about flash tattoos, what they are, what designs they comprise, and how you can get your flash tattoo, well, in a flash. So, without further ado, let’s jump right into this super interesting topic!<\/p>\n

If you, now, all of a sudden think of a random tattoo design, chances are a common tattoo design like a rose, gun, heart<\/a>, flowers, or anything in that realm will pop into your mind as a tattoo example. And that is what flash tattoos are; the most common tattoo designs, regarded as such by almost every single person out there.<\/p>\n

Now, flash tattoo designs are generally drawn on paper or cardboard. As such, they’re then displayed on the walls, tattoo shop windows, and in binders so customers looking for a tattoo can have a quick inspiration (if they don’t really know what kind of a tattoo to get). Flash tattoos are always done fully; fully drawn and colored so that the customers have a complete understanding of what the tattoo will look like even before getting it tattooed on themselves.<\/p>\n

Okay, so let’s talk about the actual designs of these flash tattoos. First of all, they do come in different sizes<\/a>. Generally, the exemplary, displayed tattoo designs are approximately 11×14 inches, printed. The tattoo designs are often printed, and the tattoo artist does sometimes chose to do a separate line drawing on different sheets so they don’t have to draw the same tattoo design all over again, every time.<\/p>\n

The design of the flash tattoos often relies on the most common tattoo imagery, like vintage tattoo designs, different kinds of patterns, designs featuring skulls, roses<\/a>, guns, flowers<\/a>, you get the gist. But, we do have to point out that even among the common tattoo designs, the flash designs are organized and categorized as follows;<\/p>\n
