-
The First Touch - up
it all starts from your first appointment with the studio. As your tattoo starts to heal , the first 4-6 weeks are crucial, specially if you have heavy shading or very intricate work or have a tattoo on an area that is prone to fading or drop out such as knee caps, fingers etc.
Your artist will book you in for your first free touch up if you need one , after an assessment of the tattoo, this will be after the first 4-6 weeks of you getting a tattoo.

Lifetime Aftercare Service
After you have had your first free touch up and if you tattoo is still faded, in cases of fingers tattoos etc. you will be assessed by the technician if and when you need another touch up.
The usual price for this touch up would be charged but as part of our lifetime aftercare programme you won’t be paying anything for the first year.
as we deposit more and more ink on the same place that was tattooed , the chances of you having a blowout increases as the treated area has more pigment in that area causing the lines to blur or blow out. to avoid this we need to assess the tattoo, make sure it is fully healed, which can me a couple of months after your first free touch up appointment.

year after year
It has now been over a year, your body has broken down tiny ink particles and flushed it out of your system, making your tattoo look faded, light or even disappear in rare cases or cases where you opted for white ink or light grey ink for your fineline tattoo.
You can then reach out to us and book your touch-up appointment to cover the tattoo and make it look fresh and crisp*
And we will help you with any touch-ups needed through out the time your tattoo lasts, which is forever.
do fineline tattoos fade?
its an ongoing debate on between traditional and the new age artists, that fineline tattoos fade over the years, some say it will disappear over time.
We want to ask, what is better, a tattoo that fades or a tattoo that blurs over time?
as soon as someone is pierced with a needle that contains ink, the body recognises the ink as a foreign substance and start the process of breaking the ink down and getting rid of it but it can’t, so its defence mechanism is containing the foreign substance and keeping it in one place and not allowing it to spread, which makes your tattoo permanent, or should we say permanent in regards to a human life span.
The ink deposited will still be broken down over the years and your tattoo will keep fading, so here’s the dilemma, do we want to put more ink in the body making it impossible or nearly impossible for your body to get rid of the ink and keep the tattoo dark for longer, which means the lines will get thicker, the shading will spread a bit more, the details will fade or the gaps in the text will shrink and in some cases turn into small blobs of ink.
Or do we want the ink deposited under the skin to be small enough so it doest’t spread or make the lines go thicker but would eventually fade a bit more in comparison to the thick and bold traditional lines. giving us an opportunity to go over the lines and make them look fresh and not have to make the lines thicker in order to make then look dark or crisp again.
