Shaving head for tattoo

    I have an undercut and I'd like to get a tattoo there - if I get it shaved the day before, is that likely to be okay, or would I need to get it shaved on the day?

    Thanks!

    (Getting the tattoo on Sunday and I'm not sure if there'll be a barbers open!)

    I had mine shaved the day before, tattooist then re-shaved the area before working on it as per most other parts of the body.. Hope you post pics :)

    Yeah, the tattoo artist will go over where they need to tattoo with a razor, but best to have it as clear as possible ahead of time, so that you know it's good to go.

    In the end I put off the tattoo for now, instead I'm having fun trying out different hair art designs. Here's my latest!

    (Dunno why it's coming up upside-down, but you get the idea!)
