Why Won't Some Artists Tattoo Feet?

Question: Why Won't Some Artists Tattoo Feet?
Answer: I actually wrote an article a few years ago on why many artists won't tattoo feet. Please refer to[http://tattoo.about.com/cs/beginners/a/aa052903a.htm] Tattoos: No Hands, No Feet, No Face - Why?

That all being said, I think foot tattoos are great and I plan to get mine done, too. But it's just going to take finding the right artist to do it and then it's totally up to you to take really good care of it. You also have to realize that no matter what you do, it may fade or wear down faster than the rest of your tattoos (up your legs) so you may need to get your foot touched up every couple of years to keep the brightness matching with the rest of it.
