Finger Tattoo Hurts?
Pain during a tattoo will always depend on each person's tolerance. There are those who are more sensitive, and those who feel almost nothing while the needle paints the skin.
However, we need to say that a tattoo on the finger imposes the art on a region that has little skin, causing the needle to approach the bone closer, causing more pain than in other regions with more “flesh”.
Even though finger tattoos are mostly delicate and small, they will need to be inked well for good results. Because of this, the needle will need to pass several times in each line and space to fix the ink well and ensure an incredible design.
But if you are REALLY wanting to get a tattoo on your finger, we can already tell you that the pain felt is bearable. If that's what you want, don't give up. Choose a symbol/word of your liking and voilà!
Tips and Care
Super trendy, the finger tattoo even inspired celebrities of the moment like Rihanna, Bruna Marquezine, Cleo Pires and Neymar. By becoming this worldwide fever, however, many forget that tattooing resembles a surgical procedure.
That is, any tattoo you are going to get requires specific care so that it heals well and lasts for a long time on your skin with the same beauty as the day it was done.
It is necessary, for example, to avoid eating pork meat for at least a week after getting a tattoo, as this food can directly influence the healing process.
Not sunbathing in the area, covering the tattoo with plastic film and applying the healing cream recommended by the tattoo artist is also essential right after getting it done. Afterwards, the sunscreen in your hands will be indispensable too.
In addition, as it is located in a very used area of our body, this type of tattoo can have certain disadvantages. Check out some of them:
- Finger tattoo can fade over time: this is true and needs to be pondered by anyone who really wants to get a very significant tattoo on their finger. This region has very thin skin, in addition to having a large number of sweat glands, which favor the presence of acid on the hands, gradually erasing the tattoo.
- It can also get blurred: in addition to your sweat, all the movement you do with your hands in your day to day life can impair the quality of your tattoo image. This region is known to easily absorb ink. American tattoo artist Virginia Elwood even says that these tattoos tend to lose color and a little of their shape after a couple of years.
- A tattoo on a visible part can harm the job market: some companies still do not accept tattooed people as part of their workforce. Even though it is increasingly in the media and its meaning has been demystified for a long time, a tattoo, even a small one on the finger, can harm your entry into the market, depending on your area of expertise, of course.
