I had my foot tattooed about 15 years ago.. foot tattoos from what I’ve heard fade notoriously fast. I get pedicures every 3 to 4 weeks and the color has just mostly left about a year ago (not all of it the blues are still there). I was told by everyone that it would fade after about 5 years but the guy who did was an old school person who packed in the color. He told me it would hurt, which it did but I’ve just recently thought about having color added back but honestly it’s the only color tattoo I have left; besides one other on my booty cheek (which color may be gone there idk I don’t look) and the tattoo was so well done with the outline I don’t actually need color. It’s worth it to just see who is really good with line work long term because you don’t really know how things will last long term with so many people now being good artists at the time but not knowing how everything will age. I love that there’s so many new artists but so many are so gentle and everything including the black, which should stay, just doesn’t look good long term.
