    Hi

    Hand tattoos do fade very rapidly because of the constant wear and tear of the skin and the washing.
    Also you have to ask do you want a mushroom on your hand when you are 70?

    That said if you do go with it I would advise against using a lot of green ink as this has a issues of looking very blotchy as time goes on.

    Take care

    i gave it a good years though and i decided it’s definitley what i want, whether i get it or not is another thing, what with as you said fading and so forth, if i get them they’ll be very small, about the size of a bottle cap if ya get me. didn’t know that about green ink though. thanks for the heads up! i’ll have to look into that now before i get em. thanks. 🙂

    I have a ghecko in the same spot, javent had it redone yet but it has faded quite alot, seeing that i am a surfer and live on the beach it is not surprising, but it has held well, i also looked after it very well while it was healing.
