Hair and tattoo: bad combination

Hair and tattoo: bad combination

One of the problems that is not usually thought about when deciding to get a tattoo is the issue of body hair. When we see all those beautiful photos of fresh tattoos it does not occur to us to think that the tattooist always wax the area before tattooing and that sooner or later the hair will grow.

To that is added the problem of people whose hair produces pimples (in which case it is not advisable to get tattooed there) or the people whose hair is enyst and you have to pull out from time to time with a needle.

Think about it before getting tattooed. You can choose or not to choose one area hairy or choose one and decide to shave or not regularly. If you skip the topic and let the tattoo be covered with hair, the drawing will not win with it.

Second: it is dangerous; as they say in the Dermasana clinic “the laser would activate all its heat before the black pigment of the tattoo ink since it would interpret it as if it were also melanin. That is, it would not remove the hair, but it would burn the area. "

Imagine, not only would the tattoo deform you, it would burn your skin.

Finally, if you have one small in a large areaYou have the option of having your hair waxed around the drawing and you wax it manually.

It's not that big either sacrifice for a tattoo that will always accompany you.
