Frequently Asked Questions

Questions About Colour Tattoos?

We’ve done our best to clarify everything below, but don’t hesitate to flick us a message if you need some more information!

Why are colour tattoos considered difficult to execute?

Colour tattoos are challenging because they require the artist to expertly blend multiple hues and create seamless transitions. This style demands a high level of skill in colour theory, shading, and spatial awareness to achieve vibrant and dynamic designs. The artist must also have a strong understanding of how different colours interact and behave on the skin. Choosing an experienced and talented tattoo artist is essential to ensure the best results for this intricate tattoo style.

How long does a colour tattoo session last?

The duration of a colour tattoo session can vary widely depending on the complexity and size of the design. Smaller pieces might take a few hours, while larger, more detailed designs could require multiple sessions to complete. The use of multiple colours often extends the time needed compared to black and grey tattoos.

Are colour tattoos more painful than other styles?

Pain levels depend on the placement of the tattoo and your personal pain tolerance. Colour tattoos often involve extensive shading and colour blending, which can prolong the session and potentially increase discomfort. However, the experience varies for each person.

How do I care for my colour tattoo during healing?

Proper aftercare is crucial to preserve the vibrancy and details of your colour tattoo. Keep the tattoo clean and moisturized, avoid sun exposure, and follow the specific aftercare instructions provided by your tattoo artist. This will help maintain the brightness and clarity of the colours.

Can colour tattoos fade over time?

Yes, like all tattoos, colour tattoos can fade over time, especially with frequent sun exposure or improper aftercare. Using sunscreen and regular moisturizing can help maintain the vividness of the colours and prevent premature fading.

How much do colour tattoos cost?

The cost of a colour tattoo varies based on the size, complexity, and the artist’s expertise. Generally, colour tattoos can be more expensive due to the detailed work and time required. For more information, check out our helpful tattoo prices guide.
