What You Need to Know Before Tattooing Your Hands
It’s time to talk tattoos and get down to the nitty gritty of one of the most popular locations to gain ink—the hands. Celebrities like Rihanna, Demi Lovato, and the Beebs have made hand tattoos hotter than ever, inspiring everyday collectors and enthusiasts to go under the needle. However, despite the rising popularity of ink on the hands, there isn’t too much talk about the process of inking this part of the body. Hand tattoos are very different from most other tattoos, because they’re in an extremely visible location on the body. Unlike a tattoo on your leg or your arm, they take a special level of consideration and communication. Whether we like it or not, individuals still face plenty of discrimination in the workforce for their tattoos and there is no hiding a hand piece from a potential employer. Take a look at our 6 step guide to hand tattoos in the photo gallery below. Then if you are considering tattooing your hand, are currently in the process of inking your hands, or have already tatted this part of the body—share your comments and questions on our Facebook.
