All tattoos will, of course, eventually fade and blur over time. That's the thing about ink on skin, it fades and ages with your body, and your tattoo won't stay as perfect looking as it did on the day that you first got it done, this is due to how our body precepts and reacts to the ink in the bloodstream, it’ll always be a foreign object that your body will fight.

Fine line tattoos tends to heal more to a dark gray look. The ink isn't as densely packed under the skin as with other thicker tattoos so the result is a softer and more blended look. It’s extremely normal and expected to notice some differences on the line consistency comparing to the fresh work.

After healed, the tattoo will settle just below your first layer of skin, that’s why they don’t look as bright and crisp as the fresh work.


Best way to take care of your healed tattoo is to keep it away of the sun/sunbeds or if you’re going to expose it use a high factor sunscreen. It helps to exfoliate and moisturise before our appointment.
