    Default Tattoo under a toe-Possible?

    The only place I would consider getting a tattoo is under my big toe. Is this even possible? Does anyone know? I think it would be cute.

    Me and my girl tried to get feet tattoos and they wouldnt do it! This was on the top of our feet, I wanted a scroll type toe ring but nope, they wouldnt. Never gave us an explanation that seemed valid neither...!
    UNDER your toe?? Why under? WHat would u put UNDER a toe?

    Never explain yourself to anyone, because the person who likes you doesn't need it and the person that dislikes you won't believe it.

    i have a tatoo ON my toe, the one next to the big toe.. I have a daisy.. They were pretty reluctant about doing it, but did it for me anyway.. It hurt like hell though!!! I think under the toe would be even worse!!

    please DON'T DO IT-I love female feet, but tats on the feet are a major turn off-the female foot is a beautiful thing naturally-don't mess it up

    The skin on the pad's of your hand's and feet are very different from that which cover's your body. It's thicker and coarser, IF you could find someone to do it they would have to drill very deep to be effective and when it healed it would probably be very fuzzy looking or nothing but a blob of ink. This is probably why you are having trouble getting someone to do it. I doubt you would be happy with the result's.

    I have heard that it is not advisable to do the underside of feet or hands because that skin exfoliates so much faster than the rest of your skin so I don't know how that affects that.

    Anais is right. I have the tops of my feet covered in tattoos, and the only way that my artist did it was because he knew I understood the risks. The skin exfoliates off of the bottoms of your feet at a very high rate; it's meant to regenerate as quickly as possible. The ink will either get mooshed up with all the pressure, heat and moisture on your toes from shoes, or get scrubbed off within 6 weeks. Toes are also bad, since they constantly get hit by your shoes and can rub off really easily. Top of the foot is best if at all on the foot region, since it gets the least vigorous rubbing. You MIGHT find someone to tattoo your insole where it's soft, but it'll hurt like hell.

    Thank you all very much for the information. I guess under toe tatoo isn't a good idea after all. You guys sure know a lot about stuff. I love it!

    If you have every seen pictures of those people who have, like, 80 percent of their bodies covered in tattoos, you wil notice that their plams and bottoms of their feet are devoid of ink. If they wont get tattoos there, then one would suspect that it's not a good idea.

    Get a Henna tatoo on the soles of your feet.. They last for about 3 weeks or so. I had it done last summer.

    The reason most tattoo artists refuse to do the bottoms of hands/feet is because of the texture of skin/constant contact that they have with things. The tattoos litterally wear right off into a blah, dullish design... it fades and alot of times runs too. A good site to check out (by the way) is (where I got my info).

    I got the same impression. I thought under the toe nail! Are you some sort of scarification masochist? You'll make bamboo under the fingertips obsolete!
    Actually, I can't see much purpose to a tattoo under the toe. Who's going to be looking there?

    Actually there are a number of tatoo artists that do tatoos under your toenails if you want it, but it supposedely hurts and grows out over time, a friend of mine had it done and it was cute but the thought of a needle going to my toenail gives me weak knees. owwww

    I know someone who got a tatoo on the bottom of her foot. she said she did it because she was drunk and her friend wanted to practice. it didnt look that good, very fuzzy, prolly partly because of the skill of the artist and where it is located.

    why not your ankle? most artists will do it and you can hide it with a sock, pantleg, or skirt, or you can show it off easily too.

    A friend of mine had tatoos on his finger nails done in the forest in Central America at a biker bar. He let them tatoo the nail beds because he knew that the tats would fade because the nails would grow out and the skin under the nails sheds quickly. He said it did not hurt..I guess if you just want to imagine what a tatoo is like....

    LOL, i thought the same thing. I closed my foot in a car door once and my big toenail fell off, and let me tell you that is the LAST place in the world you would ever want a needle. The skin under a nail is more sensative than most will ever know...
