Lets try this again. Anyone else ever have to remake a long ass post like 100 times because technology hates you?
😅
These are my top 7 reasons why Fall is the best time to get that new tattoo!
1. Your not spoiling all that Summer fun. Proper aftercare means a solid month of no fun in the sun..or water..or outside really at all. You really need to avoid the sun, communal water, soaking, and sweating.
2. You will be less likely to get an infection in fall because your not going to be tempted by all those Summer activities I just told you to avoid!
3. Your wearing more clothes and therefore protecting the tattoo better from sun damage. Also, you dont have the stress and worry about family dinner. Wearing a turtle neck in Fall 👍, wearing 1 in summer 😬.
4. Your less likely to have a reaction to your Saniderm or other full adhesive bandage. "Allergic reactions" are generally more of an agitation to the skin as the adhesive reactivated and mixes with your salty sweat.
5. Moisturizing is something we do in perfect harmony with nature in Fall. Summer tends to be humid and the last thing people want to do is slather on more oils. Winter is so dry, can we ever moisturize enough without over moisturizing?
6. Slow Season Folks! If your not invested a service industry you may not know that once the kids go back to school business slows down. People have school and holiday priorities that take precedence and we get that. But your a savvy shopper and know that NOW is the time to get a good deal, faster booking, a calmer shop, and well rested artist.
7. Now is all there is. So just get the damn tattoo. Tattoos are about celebrating and remembering who we are, where we've been, and where we are going. Tattoos are about our favorite things, people, and places. Its your story, your motivation, your conversation starter, your security blanket. Tattooing is yours, its mine, it's for all of us and none of us are promised tomorrow.
