Client getting Tattoo - tanTALK

Kristie22 · 04-14-2009, 09:05 AM

One of my clients is getting a tattoo. What precautions should I take before and after her tattoo (waiting period of spraying, etc.)? I did a search on this but mostly spray-tan tattoo's came up. Thanks! :)

Tatoos are under the skin..But wait till it fully heels with no scabs...Then it ok to tan.

Miami Ink makes a fade stick too. SPF basically plus some special color guard. UV is not rec for tats as they will fade color over time. IF B/W tat, not as big a deal.

I dont see any different .People go to the beach all the time and they have tatoo,and alot of teen are getting more and more tats on there lower back near the waist line.Yes it will fade in time but not because of spray tan .

Any issues with me spraying her the day before or couple days before she gets her tattoo? I can't find much about it on the net.

Duh....sorry. I didnt even notice this was sunless! Forget the above. Spray tan , go for it. No worries. As for before a tat, I'm not sure on that one since you are injecting dye into the skin. I wouldn't think it would be an issue but I could see it possibly affect the color outcome.

No don't tan her before her tatoo like RCKnap3 said about the ink injecting..and it won't be a couple of days for her scare tissues to completely heel unless you want to wrap her tatoo and then spray her down.
