Well, got it retouched today, must say looks as good as new again.

Guy said that black tattoos tend to fade and showed me his which had black bits which had faded, but also looked like they were seriously long term tattoos which had faded over time.

Seemed like he was saying that it was normal for my tattoo to be like it was which I don’t really accept after 6 months, otherwise surely the ones across my chest would have been the same.

He did it without charging though, and just recommended the same aftercare, benpathen and keeping out of the sun. Should I be looking at any other ways at looking at keeping it fresh, obviously I am guessing that there is only a certain amount of times a tattoo can be touched up.

Want to have confidence as I want to have others done.

Whereas the lettering on the front here still looks ok.

You can see the fading especially on the bottom half.

Thanks for the replies. Six months on, the lettering and heart across the chest look okay, the actual tattoo on the arm appears to be fading and looks as I can only describe as mouldy, not been out in the sun or exposed, followed all aftercare protocols, wondering if anything can be done about it. Pictures to follow.

Definetely, especially the second one, just doesn’t look as good as when it was done. Is this normal, or am I being a bit paranoid. Will it need touching up?
