Aftercare and treatment for any tattoo, especially sensitive places that easily come in contact with things, like your hands and fingers are very important! Make sure you aren't scratching the tattoo or rubbing any harsh surfaces against it.

Be aware that the skin on your hands and fingers are sensitive. Be very mindful of the placement of your tattoo.

When it comes to tattoos cover-ups are a big thing. It could be cover-ups on your fingers and hands. Cover-ups on your arms and sometimes as couples some get carried away with love and need to cover up things like tattoos of our ex-significant-others names or tattoos on our ring fingers or other private places. A cover-up consists of different designs and pictures that will compliment or hide the original tattoo. So it won't be that visible and so that it can naturally blend in with the cover up tattoo. So be mindful of the commitments you are going to make not only to yourself but with other people so you won't be forced to deal with coming up with another design or pictures for a cover-up tattoo. Though, I'm sure that, if you do want to use a cover-up tattoo, then you will think of a perfect design or pictures to replace what once was so significant to you.

Okay, so I'm sure we all are grown enough to understand that with any choice of tattoo that you will have your audience and some minor consequences or difficulties. You have to consider when you get a tattoo if you care or not about other peoples opinions. Especially when it comes to employment. I'm sure you guys have heard the old saying "no employer will hire you, you have tattoos." That saying can be somewhat true. Just depends on the employer and how "offensive" your tattoo can be to others. It's all about "to each their own," but some people have very opinionated opinions. With the way that the world is developing and the social norms for our upcoming generations, it seems that the whole idea behind not being able to be a sufficient worker due to the way you look, having tattoos, or your sexual orientation or race is coming to an end. Everyone is starting to become more open-minded with each individuals uniqueness. Plus, I mean equality! Duh! So have no fear! Be mindful of your tattoos and be hopeful as well.
