I've found out a few things online about aftercare difficulties (this will not be my first tattoo by any means) but is there anything else I should be wary of? Has anyone had a hand tattoo that they can tell me about? I would be sooo grateful to hear anything, this forum always sorts out my worries with bodymods before i get them Thanks

I love it, and I want it even if I have to wait for a long time, but if none of the tattoo places around me are willing to talk to me about it I'm going to find myself slightly hindered! I'm planning on getting it in a henna colour, and as I'm fairly dark skinner anyway it should be quite subtle (well, more subtle that the big black ones i've got!). Basing it on this, I've rationalised it to my friends and family that if I did get a 'real' job it could be covered up, despite the fact that it would be a complete pain.

Posts: 17 (06/07/09 05:11:44) Fresh Meat Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	well, as I said I am already very tattooed, I just don't have any on my hands and was wondering if there was a specific reason or restriction because I hadn't had any answers from the tattooists I'd spoken to, and the ones who were willing to do it weren't quite professional enough for me to want to risk it. I'll still keep trying, it's obviously not something I'm going to take lightly regardless of where they're going to be put!

"very tattooed" is vague, what may be very tattooed to one person, may not be to another. what kind of coverage and hours are you talking here? if you have a lot of work is there no one artist that has done several pieces that you could ask?

Often those who are bold enough to get these have a symbol or message that they want the world to see. Hand tattoos are painful, and this is well known. People who can handle the pain often do so to prove a point, as with gang tattoos. The underbelly of a small subculture, however, is not the only place this kind of ink can be spotted. ______________________ Temporary tattoos \| Removable tattoos

Some places you need a cosmetic license to tattoo below the wrist and above the neck. If you're not heavily tattooed, I'm mean, heavily visibly tattooed and/or modified, most places will turn you away. Some artists don't know how to tattoo hands either, and will say that it doesn't heal well to get out of doing the tattoo. Someone will do it for you if you keep searching, but don't go to just anyone. It is your hand and you don't want a crappy tattoo there.
