Foot tattoo

    I have been planning my second tattoo for a while now. I know what I want, just changing my mind about where I want it. I have been looking at foot tattoos, kinda like this (just the text):

    http://www.craftster.org/member_projects/jungrrl/Blog/CraftyTattoos/LikeIceIsCold/LikeIceIsCold.jpg

    I know it will hurt a lot!!
    But my question is does anyone know if the ink will bleed or blur down there.
    The one I posted looks fine I know, just wondering if anyone has one done!

    The one I have on my wrist, the letter M, it has kind of blurred a little I think. Like dark shading in between, don't know if this is my skin, the position or what.

    Thanks!

    I have a polynesian style tattoo on my foot that covers a good bit of it, covers most of that appears in your link. For me it was sore but bearable, like most tattoos. Only thing is though the closer you go to the base of your foot the less likely the ink will hold. Part of mine is below my ankle and nearly at base of my foot and ink has started to fade already (Tattoo was done in December), this is because of the constant sweating of feet and the constant wear in this area.

    I would say if your getting text to get it a bit higher than the one in your pic as from my experience it will blur and fade a bit.

    I've one on my foot. Have it about 6 years. It's bled a little.

    and FYI, don't pay attention to those two fibbers above, your foot is gonna hurt like hell :p

    :) Totally prepared for the pain no matter what anyone says :D



    I wouldn't really mind the bleeding or fading too much
    Its the blurring that would worry me :)

    I have tats on both my feet and if I had had a gun at the time they were being done I would have shot myself in the face.

    Very painful.
