1: Some people are allergic to red tattoo ink. Red ink is an ingredient in brown ink. If you are allergic and get a
brown tattoo, it will fade and blotch badly.
2: Some older tattoo artists think that if a colored tattoo isn't outlined in black, it will fade. This is not true.
All colored tattoos are believed to need more care than black to prevent fading, but with good care they can last and stay vibrant just fine. Treat it well and it should do fine, if you are not allergic. Lotion and sunscreen are your friends. Also, what whatisish said makes a lot of sense. Find someone who says they can do it, and whose portfolio backs it up. Look at lots and lots of photo albums of real work, not just flash on the walls, until you find someone who does the style that you want well. Then expect to pay well for good quality work.
