Many would surely agree that a person’s foot is definitely among the few sexy parts of the body. However, it can also be rough and dirty, sometimes full of callouses, simply because of how we use and take good care of them. If you value your feet at all times, meaning, you clean and pamper them, one thing you also might want to add to improve its beauty is a tattoo.
Why have Small Foot Tattoos?
Small foot tattoos are surely attractive. You might ask, why would you settle for a small foot tattoo when you can get something big that can almost cover possible imperfections caused by excessive walking or running, or because of being obliged to wear closed shoes all the time? Well, first, you have to understand that your foot does not have enough muscle. In fact, it’s almost just skin on top of the bone. Because of that, it can be more painful to have it tattooed compared to other parts of your body. Also, like the knee, our foot sometimes elicits an uncontrolled reaction, especially due to too much pain, therefore, it could be a bit risky to have a big foot tattoo that would really consume more time. No matter how hard you control your movements, once your foot gets through severe pain, it will automatically react, resulting in an affected tattoo design. Lastly, the tattoo on your foot could possibly blur or spread as the skin heals, unlike on the other areas. Because of that, the outcome could be something you won’t appreciate in the long run.

Small Foot Tattoo Aftercare
Foot tattoo usually heals 2-3 weeks after the procedure. During this period, avoid wearing closed shoes so as to prevent infection. Shoes can have abrasive materials that could possibly rub against your tattoo, therefore, these could affect its recuperation. Failure to follow these could possibly result in pus or bleeding abnormally. If it happens, the tattoo design might be damaged, leaving you with an unattractive one.
If you have a job that will require you to wear shoes at all times, you might want to consider other parts of your body, such as getting a half sleeve or a chest tattoo.
Hey readers! I’m Jeffrey and your tattoo artist of the day;) I have been drawing and painting my whole life, and after graduating high school I decided it was time for a bigger challenge and I started drawing on people. I’m so fortunate I got to express my creativity through my body art and even more so to share my passion with my now wife Emilie. She started working with me in my tattoo shop as a piercer and I started writing about and photographing, my creations on this blog. I love to hear from you and hope you enjoy our work together!
