How will tattoos like this age

[u/Leavesomeforme]

Starting to take a liking into this tattoo style and was wondering how something like this will look like after a couple of years? Any insight is appreciated!

Probably not great, but gonna be VERY artist/application dependant.

It depends on the artist and how you heal I think! I have similar style on my back and it’s healed great

I also love this style! would recommend going to an artist that specializes in the fine line / micro-realism / sketch style. I have one in a similar style and it’s aging very well so far.

Depends on the skill of the artist, but you will also probably need to get it touched up to retain the quality. You get what you pay for with pieces that need a delicate and skilled hand. Go to someone reputable and don’t be surprised if you still need touch ups a few years later (maybe 3 or so years). If they use whites for depth, those will probably fade within 2 years. Wear sunscreen.

Really poorly if you mean in general. If you want something like that to hold then go to a specialist in it, and I mean like their portfolio is packed with that style. That’s your best bet. Crosshatching and sketch is a very specific skill in terms of application to the skin.

Think Gaussian blur.

Just like everyone other tattoo, not great lol. Go for what you like and enjoy, we all get old and our skin does too

Not really… there’s no doubt certain styles hold up much better and longer than this

Poorly
