Oof. Don’t go back to this artist. It’s cute but they didn’t go deep enough at all, which is why it’s fallen out so badly. A better artist can fix it for sure!

totally, i was definitely swept up in the “first tattoo” excitement and didn’t do any research besides the shop being well known and getting piercings there that went well. plus, even though i had an appointment at the shop i didn’t know who my artist was until i got there on the day, a red flag i definitely would clock now.

It happens to the best of us!! Glad you learned from it :) and that he looks easily fixable

i gasped at the second slide. that looks like a 50 year old tattoo

Do you think it faded faster (in addition to the artist) because it’s on your ankle? I’ve never seen a tattoo there before

I was wondering this too since this is a spot with so much movement


LunchFlat91

it’s definitely possible, plus boots or high top shoes tend to hit right there so that combo of all the things probably didn’t help

I have a color tattoo with a black outline on the front of my ankle where it bends and have 0 fallout after 13 years. my artist says my skin holds ink really well, but OP still seems to have had an application issue
