Are Tanning and Sunbathing OK with a Tattoo?
Sunbathing and tanning beds might be really tempting, but are not a wise choice if you have tattoos. Does that mean your tanning days are over? Well, I guess that depends on how much you love your tattoos and want them to stay bright and looking their best. I can certainly empathize with anyone that also loves the sun and just can’t stay away. If you absolutely must go soak up some rays, at least be sensible and use sun block. Find the highest SPF level you can find and re-apply often if you’re going to spend a lot of time outside. If you just can’t accept having pasty white skin and your goal is to go out and get some color, make sure you at least protect your tattoos with as much sunscreen as possible.
