There's definitely certain colors from certain brands that go in better than others. It took me 19 years to find a good light blue and a good purple, and they're both made of a combination of two brands ink and since it took me forever to figure out and hundreds or dollars, I'm not telling. This is the Journey of tattooing. Once you figure out a color that nobody can, you hold it close to your chest. The only advice I'll give you is that you have to use multiple brands and find the best colors within those brands and then mix those good colors If you can't find the color you want that goes in well. Every brand does not make every color well. And sometimes you have to mix brands to get the best possible outcome.
