Do Ear Tattoos Last

From the official aftercare post Id love to hear some insight from other people with behind-ear.

Do ear tattoos last. The good news due to the small area to work the tattoo design must be tiny so you will not be hurting very long. Due to this there is a distinct possibility that the tattoo may fade over time losing colour and boldness. The color of the ink makes a big difference too as the lighter the ink the faster it fades remember.

Any artist who would agree to do a head piece on a total newb shouldnt be allowed to wield a needle. Im considering getting a small tattoo behind my ear just solid black but after reading about how tattoos should be left alone for 1 month how they will flake etc. Make sure your artist has done head tattoos before.

There are many reasons as to why this happens and many answers to the question of how do tattoos age. Hi Im very new to everything tattoo related and up until recently didnt even realize that tattoos had a healing process. Nara tells us ear tattoos are no more likely to fade than tatts in other areas as long as theyre.

Tattoos may take minutes to hours to add to your body but they last a lifetime. Another bad thing about getting an ear tattoo is that it fades especially when tattoos are placed on the ear itself. Tattoos on the ear or behind the ear pose the risk of exposure to hair products as well as phone use which can greatly irradiate a new tattoo.

You may also be able to request a numbing agent from your artist if youre really worried about the pain. Another way to lower that pain is tattoo. Pain should be only one consideration of getting a tattoo.

The Pros of the Tattoos Behind the Ear. Ears do tend to bleed more than other areas though so dont panic if you see a load of red. Of course they would look great but only when they are freshly inked.
