Human: I'm a little nervous about the idea of having my first tattoo. What's the best way to prepare for the experience? Assistant: 
The best way to prepare for your first tattoo is to do some research and make sure you understand what kind of design, color palette, and placement you want before committing to anything. You should also think carefully about whether or not you're comfortable with pain and how long it will take to heal. Make sure you have realistic expectations and that you feel good about the decision you’re making. Lastly, consider talking to a professional artist beforehand to get an idea of what they can offer and how much it might cost.
