Hey guys, I’ve been thinking about getting a 3rd tattoo in color but i’m not sure if it would work with my skin color (which is light brown). Can you guys tell me if this is feasible?

I’m thinking left upper arm.

that yellow in the flower and the skin color most likely will not hold on darker skin. might also have a problem with the whites.

I could do without the sunflowers, but i really like the blue colors and it would be bad to not have the entire thing colored.

My skin color is very light so wouldnt the tattoo colors overwrite it? I don’t know the science behind tattoos….

If you mix white and tan skin, it will look rusty. Yellow and tan skin could turn out brown. It would look alright for the first week of healing, but after that it would go to hell.

Think about the product of mixing the ink with the color of your skin, and that is how it will heal up to be.

I hope that makes sense 😮

Also, that chick is going to have more or less the same skin color you do. Frankly, that tattoo is just too light in general unless you’re an albino.

Besides, I’ve never seen a slutty anime girl tattoo come out looking good.

Love. Peace. Metallica.
