 |
|
Ok, artists and ppl who have gotten or seen them...
If you look in the insect section of the tattoo pics, you'll see a dragonfly on a toe. My sister wants us to get matching toe tats (b/c we love uber cute flip flops that would show them off well:-p) but my artist says that he doesn't do them. He says that they don't turn out well...they get blurry and faded. What experience have you had with this? I think the other artist in the shop would do it, so I want to know if its going to look like shit in a couple years. He'll do an awesome job, but is placement the problem? |

the artists at my shop won't do tattoos on the fingers, hands, front or sides of the neck or toes.
From the explanation the girl who's training me gave said something about the skin being different and more difficult to work on? *shrug*

It's better than having a permanent tattoo piss on your parade the rest of your life  |

If you had gloves on for hours each day and they were rubbing against your knuckles, then I guess it'd be the same. |

| The skin on the top of your toes is WAY tougher\harder than the soft skin between your knuckles where his tats are... |
