My first tattoo, is the foot a safe place to get a tattoo?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If on foot: would be very mindful of placement - because pressure from shoe against tattoo could negatively impact it. For instance - if shoe strap rubs against a new tattoo - that could impact healing (and may lead to a portal for infection). Of course would not get tattoo on sole of foot (:
