hehehehehe, i went through 3 razors on one guy just shaving his inner arm, i said “man you’re hairy” and he said “you should see my back!” ewwwwwwwww:eek:

What’s the deal with shaving? Is it safe to continuously shave over a tattoo for many years, or will it damage the tattoo somehow?

Its fine – I can’t see there being any damage to the tattoo (different layers of the epidermis)

Hi Joker

Once it is healed it is locked beneath the epidermis so you can shave over it no prob as you would need to dig down into the dermis to damage it – like majorly cut yourself.

Not to be recommended on brand new tattoos though.

Here’s a weird follow-up. If you have one arm inked and you shave it, do you shave to other bare arm to match? Or do you have one hairy arm and one smooth arm?

get the other arm fully sleeved – simple solution 😀

It’s an interesting question. Since I am quite hairy, this is a future concern of mine. I believe I’d shave either both or neither. And since having a bare shaved arm would be horrid, I think I’d skip shaving the tattoo arm as well, until I had them both inked.
