Question 1

Do fine line tattoos fade?

Accepted Answer

All tattoos fade slightly over time, but fine line tattoos can age beautifully with proper care and placement. As the lines are finer, they are more prone to a fainter heal. You can always come back for a top up appointment if required.*

Pain varies depending on placement, but fine line tattoos are generally less intense than heavier styles. Most clients say it is between a 2-5 pain level out of 10.
