Face tattoos, Neck tattoos or Hand tattoos

When discussing a new tattoo at The Tattoo Shop we emphasizes the importance of longevity. Many admire the initial look of finger tattoos seen online, but are unable to see how the tattoos heals. Hand, neck, and face tattoos often fade faster than other areas because of rapid skin regeneration in these areas.

Not tattooed by me but attached is an example of what I’m talking about in case you were unaware how ink could fall out. Because of how fast hand tattoos fall out compared to other parts of your body this is why I try to stay away from tattooing neck, face, hand and finger tattoos, especially the inside of fingers.

The skin on our fingers is highly active, causing finger tattoos to fade quickly and lose clarity after healing. Many clients come to me with faded finger tattoos, feeling disappointed. They often wish they had been informed about this before getting tattooed.

I want my clients to share stories behind their tattoos confidently, not feel embarrassed due to fading ink. My priority is that clients leave with designs they can wear confidently. By discussing challenges linked to hand, neck, and face tattoos, we help clients select designs that maintain quality over time.

Quality tattoos don't come cheap, and you don't want to spend money on art that might not heal as anticipated. I aim to prevent dissatisfaction of fading ink by informing you ahead of time.

Finger tattoos, in particular, tend to deteriorate, leading to fading ink and an unfinished appearance. Our guidelines for tattoos on the hands, neck, and face encourage thoughtful choices and guarantee exceptional artistry. Let's discuss everything to ensure your tattoo experience is fulfilling.

Photos of tattoos NOT done at The Tattoo Shop, and with good reason. This photo was found on another blog by Lighthouse Tattoo with similar standards also notating “Will we tattoo your hands or face? Maybe, if you meet the requirements. So what are the requirements? Well if you already have them done or are heavily (HEAVILY) covered you’re in luck, you are already aware of the stigma and issues you will run into so we will tattoo you. Are you filthy rich(or at least substantially wealthy) and can prove it? Well what are you waiting for get in here, you already got things figured out and we have no issue tattooing your whole forehead, or whatever else you're wanting. And if you are unfortunate enough to have a felony charge, you already are well aware of the struggles you face in finding meaningful employment, but on the plus side we will tattoo you.

So, are we saying you shouldn't get your hands or face tattooed or condemning those who do? No, we are just trying to inform you of why we here have such high requirements which isn't the usual thing for a lot of tattoo shops. We are purely just trying to look out for our clients best interests and not just here to make a quick buck off the misinformation or lack of detailed knowledge of tattooing that those who aren't tattoo artist themselves might know.”
