So I will be turning 18 and I’m wondering what would be good as a first tattoo. I have a few things that I would LOVE as a first tattoo but don’t know if I should try one of those first or get something completely different. And I don’t want to make a terrible mistake with placement or my tattoo choice. I’ll put the list down get advice for which one will be best for my first. (Or another possible location/tattoo that would be good as well. THANKS!

Ram skull (Chest)
Two snakes (on my sides)
“It can’t rain all the time” (forearm)
Deer antlers (v line)
Skeleton jaws (knee/s)
Johnny Silverhand tattoo (hand/wrist)
Spade symbol [like the card] (hand)
Matt Tuck arm tattoo

I’ve seemed to find lessons for every other type of music than rock specifically. I have been able to find things for online, but I’d rather want in person lessons.

It’s the best way I can describe it. Whenever I play fast songs (ex. James Hetfields part of Creeping Death) my elbow starts to hurt because I’m really straining, and if I try loosening my grip it makes it difficult. Is there any tips on how to fix this?
