The Artist’s Opinion
For the most part tattoo artists will likely refuse to tattoo the palm of your hand and may take some convincing to do otherwise. Palm tattoos have one big effect, they can’t be covered! Most tattoos have the advantage of being covered by clothing so employment is usually no trouble, but as with all hand tattoos gloves are the only covering option so unless your willing to wear gloves as a standard your artist may not want to jeopardize your chances of employment.
Prevention
As noted palm tattoos are highly likely to fade, though there are steps to keep your tattoo nice and bold. Like any part of the body the palm is susceptible to sun damage so job one is always ensuring your tattoo avoid over long sun exposure. Another step to maintain your tattoo is to go bold! The bolder the tattoo the longer the ink should hold, it also helps if the ink is deeper in the skin, of course this means the tattoo will hurt a lot! But hey, no pain no gain!
Health Risks
Any tattoo carries risks, there is always the chance of infection, scarring and allergic reaction that is a fact, for the most part however these risks are fairly minimal but because of the sensitivity of the palm there is a slight increase in the chance of such negative consequences occurring.
