Do you dream about a tattoo? Choose wisely! They say that a tattoo is permanent, but in certain places they will naturally fade from your body. That actually means a waste of money, time and pain. So are you going to get a tattoo soon? Check which spot really stays beautiful the longest so you don’t get any ragrets.
It is a given that you will need to have your tattoo touched up every few years. There are different ways that a tattoo fades. Sun exposure, weight gain, sagging skin and friction. Even if your fresh tattoo is not properly cared for in the first few weeks, it can wear off faster.
Fingers and hands
Small, sweet or funny tattoos on your hands are immensely popular, but unfortunately they fade quickly. Mainly on your palm or the inside of your fingers. This spot naturally comes into contact with all kinds of things throughout the day, so the tattoo can disappear within a month. Moreover, your hands are exposed to the sun almost all day long, which causes the ink to lose its color and intensity.

Inside of lip
Nice and cheeky and a handy secret place. An ink decoration on the inside of your lower lip is nice, but due to the thin skin and scraping of your teeth, it is short-lived.

Sight
Few people dare to get a face tattoo and that may be for the better. Besides having high Mike Tyson levels, a facial tattoo wears off the fastest. Because your face is continuously exposed to sunlight, the ‘shelf life’ is only two to three years.

Bottom and heel of feet
Another good hiding place for a tattoo is the foot. A perfect place if you do not want or are not allowed to have flashy decorations, for example in connection with your work. Unfortunately, a tattoo on a foot, especially the bottom, side and toes, also wears out quickly. The ‘lifespan’ is approximately 1 to 3 years.
