Will the tattoo fade over time?

Many people will think for a long time before getting a tattoo, because tattoos have a great impact on a person's daily life. There are even some jobs that require people not to have tattoos. Tattoos can also be very painful because the tattoo artist uses a needle to tattoo on the skin. Some people finally muster up the courage to get a tattoo, but are afraid that the tattoo will fade over time. If a tattoo is left for a long time, it will really fade.

Tattoo is a special form of art on the skin. We all know that it is not so easy to remove a tattoo after it is done. However, some tattoos will fade if they are not washed. Fading is an embarrassing word, and tattoo fading is not any better. The first thing you need to do to avoid tattoo fading is to understand the cause of the fading.

There are three main reasons why tattoos fade:

First, the tattoo artist’s experience. Especially for new tattoo artists, the tattoo may not be deep enough.

Second, post-tattoo maintenance. Scratching the tattooed area during the tattoo recovery process will also cause the color to fall off.

Third, the tattoo pigments used by the tattoo artist are unqualified and will also fade.

However, if the tattoo is too deep, it will affect the tattoo effect, because too deep tattooing will cause greater damage to the skin. If the tattoo is too deep under the dermis, the skin layer covered by the pigment is relatively thick, which will affect the tattoo color effect and also cause scars. Therefore, choosing a good professional tattoo artist is a must.

It is also very important to choose a good pigment when getting a tattoo. You must strictly control the selection of pigments. Do not use cheap and low-quality pigments, which will cause rejection and allergic reactions in the human body, which is very harmful to the body and will also cause the tattoo to fade. By mastering these points and relying on the tattoo artist's superb skills, you can create a beautiful and fade-resistant work of art.

First, choose the tattoo color carefully

The brighter the tattoo's color, the faster it will fade. Because sunlight is particularly prone to causing yellow dye to fade and smudge around the edges, choose yellow tattoos with caution. Darker tattoos have sharper outlines and last longer, but there is no tattoo that will never fade; even black will fade to gray.

Second, pay attention to regular moisturizing

It takes about a month for a tattoo to fully recover, so during this period, proper maintenance is needed to fix the color of the tattoo to the greatest extent. During this period, the tattoo will feel itchy when it scabs. You can find some tattoo care lotion to speed up wound healing and help fix the color.

Third, don’t expose yourself outside

It is the biggest cause of tattoo ink fading. Therefore, if you want to prevent your tattoo from fading, the best way is of course not to expose it to the public. If you want to show off your tattoo, apply a waterproof sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30 to minimize fading.

Pay attention to the above points, Chengdu Tattoo believes that your tattoo color can remain fresh and lifelike.
