Aesthetic Tattoos for Vegans
If you’re getting on board of the vegan revolution or have been a vegan for some time now, then you need to know all about vegan tattoos. Needless to say, vegans take their lifestyle pretty seriously. Right from not eating meat and dairy products to not using leather accessories, they are very particular about saying NO to anything that involves animal cruelty. This being the case, it was no wonder then that vegans were not very keen on tattoos till very recently. One main reason for their aversion to tattoos was that the materials used in the tattoo making process, from the ink to the stencils used for the designs, were not vegan. The black ink used was made using an ingredient called Shellac which is a secretion obtained from certain beetles. This meant that vegans weren’t happy with the whole tattooing idea.

This tattoo is powerful as it effectively uses a well-known logo to make the statement. It is minimalistic in nature but still highly effective.

So what are the things one needs to consider when opting for a vegan tattoo?

1. The most obvious thing to be considered is of course the ink. Check with your tattoo artist and see if they carry any vegan ink.

2. Talk to them and explain how important this is to you as some artists may dismiss such specific requirements, thinking you’re being overly picky. Explain that it is a very sentimental and ethical thing for you so that they understand the weight of the matter.

Remember this, as more and more potential customers request for vegan products, tattoo parlours will have no option but to stock up on them. So if you’re a vegan and thinking of getting a tattoo, even if you don’t go in for a typical vegan design, you will still be making a loud statement through your choice of opting for vegan ink.
