Can I Get Tattooed If the Area Is Sunburned?

Answered by Sude ErdemTattoo artist in Los Angeles

No. If the area is heavily sunburned, we unfortunately cannot tattoo it until the skin has fully recovered.

If you are going on vacation before your appointment, make sure to protect the area with sunscreen and avoid excessive sun exposure. Red, peeling, irritated, or damaged skin is not suitable for tattooing and may require the appointment to be postponed.
