Sun, Fun & Tattoos

Submitted 06.18.25

The summer is officially here!  Part of the fun in the summertime is being unemcumbered by all of our winter apparel.  We can FINALLY wear garments that assist in showing off our beautiful tattoos!!  

Regardless of what you enjoy doing in the summer months, if it includes being outdoors to enjoy the sun, don't forget the sunscreen!!  Yes, it's true...we only live once & we should enjoy each day to the max.  However, we encourage you to take a few minutes to apply some sunscreen and protect your 'skinvestment'.  Don't you want your tattoos to look as beautiful in ten years as they do today?  If so, applying sunscreen is one small preventative measure you can take to minimize the opportunity for fading, discoloration and potential skin damage. Those UV rays LOVE to break down tattoo  ink, leading to a plethora of undesirable effects on the skin...ESPECIALLY on your tattoos.  

This is not a sunscreen product plug...LOL.  We encourage you to soak up all the Vitamin D you wish this season, but do it with UV protection in mind.  You can use a clean zinc product or another OTC brand of your liking; whatever makes you smile & keeps your tattoos looking sleek.
