The healing time and painful sensations depend on the size of the jewelry and the individual characteristics of the human body.
The only significant disadvantage of minimalist tattoos is that they require correction. Because they are characterized by the predominance of fine lines, over time they can lose their clarity. First of all it concerns miniature images, characterized by clear geometry and simplicity.
Usually minimalistic tattoos are performed in black and white, but sometimes 1 or 2 additional shades are used when making a sketch
Girls who like flashy and bright tattoos, this style will not suit, because the hallmark of minimalism is monochrome and the absence of a large number of additional elements.

Minimalism as a movement in fine art emerged in the 1960s in New York City. The works in this genre were geometric forms purged of all symbolism and metaphoricality.
The main progenitors of minimalism were artists such as Donald Judd, Agnes Martin, Frank Stella and others. For example, Stella always described his work this way: "What you see is what you see."
. That is, he urged his viewer not to fantasize about hidden meanings and not to look for subtext in the details.
Over time, minimalist art moved into tattooing as well, giving birth to many talented artists. You're about to learn about a few of them right now.
Risks of intimate tattoos
The skin on the pubis is one of the most delicate on the body - almost every girl who has had self-waxing done at least once in her life knows this.
- Painful sensations while applying a tattoo on the pubis will be stronger, and the skin may end up with irritation, itching and other similar problems. This can also happen during waxing, and since the procedure of getting rid of hair will most likely have to be done periodically, this can negatively affect the appearance of the tattoo.
- Intimate areas are much more prone to infections than any other parts of the body. When getting a tattoo on your pubis, you should understand that its care must be much more responsible than for a tattoo, for example, on your arm or chest. Firstly, you should never ignore the master's recommendations, and secondly, even before the tattooist starts to work, make sure that he uses sterile tools and the procedure meets the sterility standards.
- If when applying a tattoo on the pubis the design also covers the genitals, you must understand that their sensitivity due to scarring may decrease.
- The tattoo artist will be touching you in very intimate places in the process. Tattoo on the pubis is not for shy girls.
An intimate tattoo cannot be recommended for your first tattoo. Get a tattoo in other places first to make sure you accept the pain and length of the drawing process.
Intimate tattoos have been around for millennia and can be a very bold, powerful statement about your body and character, but the above describes some real concerns you should take into account when thinking about a genital tattoo. If the risks outweigh the benefits in your mind, wait.
If the desire doesn't go away with time and an intimate tattoo won't be your first, with an open mind, self-confidence and a touch of humor you can turn your personal space into a work of art.
Success to you, be beautiful!
