This Unusual Location is a Trending Topic
Are you looking to tattoo a place that’s hidden yet unusual? Why not try the soles of the feet? Sole tattoos are becoming more popular by the minute, however, we will warn you that they’re no cake walk. The feet are an extremely sensitive area to tattoo and much like the palms of the hands, they present a special challenge for your artist. Both the soles of the feet and the palms of the hand are callused and not every style can be done properly on this area. Intricate shading and color will not heal correctly if done on the soles of the feet, therefore bold black and heavy outlines are your best bet. If you’re still not sold on tattooing yours soles, take a look at the gallery below and let us know if these epic tattoos changed your mind.
