Can I get a Tattoo in the Summer?
Of course! Just follow our tips!
It was a common question in Finland, during our time there. We understand why. Sunny and warm days are extremely precious in the North during the summer time. But do You think that it is an equally usual doubt in Australia or California? Where most of the year the sun is shining and the weather is hot.
We don’t think so 🙂
There is no contraindication to get a tattoo in the summer. In fact, our skin is in a very good condition then, naturally nourished and moisturized ( unless You haven’t spent too much time lying on the beach without sunscreen ). You know exactly how dry the skin could be during the long, windy winter, when the temperature is around zero and the wind is way too strong. Then a good moisturizing cream is a lifesaver.
In the summer many people are on their vacations. Finally having time and freedom to get a dream tattoo ( hopefully in our studio ). For them, summer is just a perfect period. However, there are some simple rules that You have to keep in mind if You want to book a summer-time tattoo appointment, but hey! Only during the healing process! Not all the summer!
No sauna – It is not super problematic for folks, since it’s warm outside
No swimming
Avoid the sun on the fresh tattoo – we covered this topic here :

These are the main points. You can read more about tattoo aftercare on our website, so we won’t describe it here again. The most important thing during the healing process is to take a really good, proper care of it. It doesn’t matter if it is in the winter, autumn, spring, summer, weekend, national holiday or whatever. Excellent care is essential everytime ! As You can see, it is totally fine to get a tattoo in the Summer.
