I have black that looks black, not blue. After had it done I went back the following week and had it done again so it is dark black. I use sunscreen on it when I tan and still it is unmistakably black.
sometimes tattoos can look like that over time..just the ink fading. that’s why you get it touched up
if its done well and taken care of it will stay black. i have two, and both are still black because i wear sunscreen when im out in the sun, and moisterize them regularly. so they stay black. my brother has one though that he doesnt always maintain the way he should so it has sort of faded to a sort of really dark blue color.
ps, dont get tribal unless you are actually in a tribe. so many people have tribal tattoos its not even funny any more.
Any amount of sun will fade a tattoo to some extent, and that little few minutes of sun adds up over the years. People with older tattoos will often forget sunscreen, and their tattoo will fade. This causes the blue/green color. So just make sure you go to a good artist, take care of it as it’s healing, and always wear sunscreen once it’s healed.
If it’s done in black ink then it should be black, not blue. Check with your local tattoo parlors. Most good places will guarantee their work. Like if it starts fading in a years time (which is WAY too early for that to be happening) then they will touch it up for free, make it look brand new again.
thats dumb…….tribal? come on way better stuff to get than that………what ever its your life
They fade and turn blue due to exposure to the sun and improper care
i believe that would have sth to do with the quality of ink being used…u should ask ur tattoo artist prior to getting ur first tattoo done
Or, you know, not, if there’s not an output to DVD. I should really look at pictures before I make comments.

make your eyeliner the thickest at the middle portion of your top eyelid, and have it thin out at each end of your eye
