[Reference Type] Tattoo flash at a studio [Drawbacks] The main drawback to browsing tattoo flash on a studio wall is the same today as it always has been. If you find a design on the wall you really like, you are more or less stuck getting tattooed at the studio where you found it. If it turns out you like the studio / tattooist, this isn’t a problem. Also, while all tattoo flash artwork was created with the intention of it being tattooed, the designs may be shown smaller than they can actually be tattooed. It’s also important to make sure the tattooist checks to verify the stencil actually matches the design. Finally, using this approach to finding reference, you may experience the “salesmanship” of a tattooist who wants your business. If this doesn’t bother you, this too may not be a problem. [Benefits] 
This “old school” approach to finding tattoo reference can still be used today. More and more studios don’t hang tattoo flash on their walls, probably due to the stigma associated by some with tattoo flash, and peoples’ desire for what they consider to be “custom” tattoos. But many shops still have great reference hanging on their walls (or in portfolios) you can browse. Another benefit is that you will have a tattooist on hand that can answer your questions and bounce ideas off of.
