Getting Tattooed in Winter: Why It’s the Best Idea Ever

Winter is often overlooked when it comes to getting a tattoo, but it might actually be the perfect season to take the plunge! Less sun exposure, better healing, and more availability at tattoo studios—here’s why winter is the best time to get inked.

Better Protection from the Sun and Bacteria

During winter, we naturally wear more layers, which means your fresh tattoo is well protected from the sun and external bacteria. No risk of sunburn or infection, which helps preserve the vibrancy of your new ink and ensures a smoother healing process.

More Availability at Your Tattoo Studio

Tattoo shops tend to get fully booked in spring and summer when everyone wants fresh ink to show off. In winter, schedules are more flexible, so you won’t have to wait weeks for an appointment. Plus, the experience will likely be more relaxed, as your artist isn’t rushing from client to client.

Faster and Cleaner Healing

A tattoo that’s kept away from the sun and excessive sweating will heal much better. Summer heat, swimming, and UV exposure can slow down the healing process. In winter, your skin stays cooler and drier, creating the ideal environment for a flawless recovery.

Perfect Timing for Summer

By getting your tattoo in winter, you allow your skin to fully heal before summer. This means you’ll be ready to show off your ink without worrying about scabbing, peeling, or post-tattoo care restrictions.

A More Comfortable Experience

Sitting through a long tattoo session can be tough, and the summer heat only makes it worse. In winter, the cooler temperatures make the process much more comfortable, especially for larger or longer sessions.
