About the style

Colour that stays bright.

Colour work is built in layers: a strong outline or underlying structure, then blended colour packed in evenly so it heals smooth. Bright colours need enough space and contrast to keep reading clearly over the years.

Skin tone, placement and sun all affect how colour heals and lasts. We talk this through with you and suggest a palette and size that suit your skin and your design.

Good to know

Colour tattoo questions.

Does colour fade faster than black and grey?

Lighter colours such as yellow and pastel shades can soften sooner than black, especially in the sun. Solid structure and daily sunscreen once healed keep colour bright. See our guide to sunscreen on tattoos.

What is the difference between neo-traditional and watercolour?

Neo-traditional uses bold outlines and rich, solid colour. Watercolour uses soft washes and splashes, usually with some linework so the design keeps its shape as it ages.

Does colour take longer to heal?

Healing time is similar to any tattoo, usually about two weeks on the surface. Larger colour areas can feel more tender at first. Keep it out of the sea, pools and direct sun while it heals.

How much does a colour tattoo cost?

Our studio minimum is USD 59. Colour pieces are quoted by size, placement and detail. Send your reference and an approximate size for a quote.
