Foot tattoo designs look unique and stand out and the foot is the perfect place for a tattoo as it is nice and flat. Foot tattoos are also rare and are seen as exotic.
The most popular tattoo designs on the foot are flower tattoos, letter tattoos and the star foot tattoo.
Foot tattoos are rare and some tattoo artists wont even undertake them, just like hand and face tattoos. This is because tattoos on the foot, hand and face are more painful than other tattoos, and take great skill by the tattoo artist to minimize this pain.
Basically if a tattoo is right over bone, then it will be more painful than having a tattoo over a fleshy part of the body. If you are not sure about the pain and are getting a tattoo for the first time, then choose a fleshy part of your body for your first tattoo.
A few things to be aware of if considering a tattoo on the foot include ‘ink migration’. There tends to be a greater incidence of ink migration with foot tattoo designs. This means the ink will probably spread over time, blurring your tattoo design. This can happen to any tattoo on any area of the body, but it’s more common with foot tattoos.
If you get a foot tattoo, just be aware that you may need to go back to your tattoo artist to get it re-inked. The best place to get a foot tattoo is on top of the foots as this is the place with least blurring. Just avoid the sides of your feet and toes.
Another thing to be aware of when getting a foot tattoo is the issue of healing. A new tattoo shouldn’t be rubbed against clothing while it heals which takes about 2 to 3 weeks. For most tattoos this is quite simple to manage, but with foot tattoos it’s a different matter. Depending on your tattoo designs, this may mean that you can’t wear shoes or socks for the whole time your tattoo is healing.
Besides these things, tattoo designs on the foot are exotic, rare and look stunning. But if you think it’s going to be too painful and you are unsure, just stick with a sholder or arm tattoo for now.
