Choosing the Right Thumb Tattoo

Consider your personal style and pain tolerance. The thumb area is bony, so minimalistic or fine-line work is popular. Pick designs that age well, as this area can fade faster due to frequent use.

Placement and Aftercare

Because thumb tattoos are exposed, they require extra care. Moisturize regularly and protect from sun and friction. Touch-ups may be needed over time.
