How Long Should I Wait To Get A Pedicure After Getting A Tattoo On My Foot?

6 Comments 01 February 2010

I know you aren’t supposed to have the part of the body where the tattoo is submerged in water for a certain amount of time. Its been over 2 weeks since I got my tattoo though.

    i would wait until it is 100% completely healed. give it at least another week,if not 2.

    I would wait until it is totally healed with no scabs or open skin. There are so many articles on the germs floating around in the nail salons, I wouldn’t chance it.

    I got mine done on Feb. 14th, my artist told me to wait at least 2-3 weeks so that it was completely healed. Hope you love your as much as i love mine….Good Luck

    Nail salons are some of the filthiest places on the planet – ANY open areas or recently open areas should not be subjected to these places. Go for a polish change and filing if you have to but NO foot soaks for at least 6 weeks.
    Do you know how much bacteria are in those water jets? While I am at it – never shave right before going for a pedicure, either. There are micro-injuries to the skin from shaving even if you don’t cut yourself.
