Wrist tattoos are popular and even celebrities love them: Linday Lohan, Nicole Richie, and Jessica Alba, to name a few. Before deciding to get this tattoo, you should also realize that there are advantages and disadvantages that you should be aware of.
Let’s start by looking at the downsides first.
- The wrist that is close to the bone may be more painful compared to the other fleshy parts of the body. There are minor tissues to cushion the skin, so expect the pain to be greater.
- The wrist is an area that is exposed and used a lot, so healing can take longer.
- Being an area close to the hand where there is great mobility, wrist tattoos can be more difficult to maintain and may even require touch-ups in the future.
- It could make it difficult for your job applications to be in a visible area, as there are still companies that discriminate against tattooed people.
Now let’s see its advantages.
- Highly visible wrist tattoos can make you look stylish and unique, especially if you are tattooed with interesting designs.
- The inside of the wrist is a good place to start with small designs where you can have the option to hide it if necessary, either with a watch or a thick bracelet.
- Wrist tattoos can be cheaper as the design for this is usually smaller.
- It’s located in an area where you can always easily look at it, admit it – we love looking at our body art.
- The dolls accommodate a wide variety of designs and there are tons of options so it wouldn’t be difficult to create a unique tattoo art for this.
Now that you have read both sides of the story, it is now up to you to weigh your options. If you choose to go for it, then finding the perfect design will be another task for you. Anything goes for tattoo art today, as even the most unusual can be truly impressive, especially if done by an experienced ink tattoo artist. If you have decided to get a wrist tattoo and have already found your dream design, all you need to do is visit your trusted tattoo studio and allow your vision to become a reality.
