The problems with getting foot tattoos
There are so many places on your body to get a tattoo. Almost any
part is up for grabs, though some body parts are more difficult to
get tattooed than others. One place that appeals to people is the
foot. To a person new to tattooing, this seems like a perfectly fine
location. However, some tattoo artists are against performing foot
tattoos.
Tattoos on your feet are discreet and easy to cover. Unless
you're barefoot, no one is going to see this tattoo, so it would
work well for someone whose lifestyle isn't entirely accepting of
body art. While these are certainly upshots to getting a foot
tattoo, this location has downsides that have some tattoo artists
saying no because they want to give their customer the best possible
tattoo.
Your foot is constantly rubbing against things. You use your feet
everyday. The constant movement and interaction with the elements
makes tattoos on the feet very difficult to heal. An improperly
healed tattoo isn't going to be a very attractive tattoo, and that's
something you'll have to deal with for a long time. Sun exposure and
activity can also lead to fading.
However, even people who are aware of the consequences may still
want to get a tattoo on their foot. The best way to go about this is
to discuss your desire with your tattoo artist -- a trained,
qualified professional, not someone who is willing to give a less
than great tattoo for the money. At the very least, he or she could
recommend someone to you.
By asserting that you know there's a risk in lack of quality, you
represent yourself as a knowledgeable consumer instead of an
impetuous one. Show that you're willing to put in the large amount
of required time to care for this tattoo, and there's a chance
you'll end up with what you want.
