Hi- My husband has been a tattoo artist for quite some time but we live in a rural little town and had never had an african american client until a week ago. She is a woman from africa and we did a heart with angel wings on her lower back. She wanted color but now called and states the color didnt take very well and that it looks faded after giving it a few days to heal. Does anyone have suggestions for getting ink to take in such dark skin or what colors are better than others. Her skin tone is a medium to dark brown, ALmost toward a coffee color skin. We just want to do everything to make this turn out for her as she is returning to africa in only 3 months. Please email us at blue2cry@hotmail.com with any suggestions and we'd be happy to take them into consideration. Also are there better brands of ink to choose for that skin tone? Currently we've got voodoo, skin candy, scream, kuro sumi and moms. Nothing seems to be working well though. Any imput would help alot.
