Why do most colored tattoos fade into green over time?

The idea that most colored tattoos fade into green isn't entirely accurate. Here's why:

Specific Culprit: Black ink is the one most prone to turning greenish over time. This happens because black ink is often a combination of various pigments, and some of these break down faster than others. As the blue and red tones in the black ink fade, the green pigments become more prominent, giving the tattoo a greenish cast.

Modern Inks: The quality of tattoo inks has improved significantly in recent years. Modern inks are formulated to be more stable and less prone to fading. While some color fading is still inevitable, it's less likely to result in a dramatic green shift.

Vibrant Colors Fade Differently: Different colors fade at varying rates. Brighter colors like red and yellow tend to fade faster than darker ones like blue and black. However, even vibrant colors won't necessarily turn green; they'll simply lose their intensity and become duller over time.

Factors Affecting Fading:

Sun Exposure: The biggest culprit for tattoo fading is sun exposure. Always wear sunscreen to protect your tattoos and minimize color loss.

Skin Type: Oilier skin types might experience faster fading compared to drier skin.

Tattoo Quality: A well-applied tattoo by a skilled artist using high-quality ink is more likely to retain its vibrancy for longer.

Maintaining Vibrancy:

Here are some tips to keep your tattoos looking their best:

Sun Protection: Apply sunscreen regularly, especially when your tattoo is exposed to the sun. Moisturize: Use fragrance-free lotion to keep your skin hydrated, which can help maintain the vibrancy of your tattoos. Touch-Ups: Consider touch-up appointments with your tattoo artist every few years to refresh the color and maintain the design's integrity. Remember, with proper care, modern, high-quality colored tattoos can stay vibrant for many years, and black tattoos are less likely to develop a drastic green hue.

TattooAge – photo project “Age and Tattoo”.

Under the patronage of the Dutch association GetOud, an exhibition called TattooAge opened in The Hague.

As part of it, dozens of fans of body painting, who are well over 60, shared their stories and attitudes towards tattoos. Overall, the project turned out to be very touching and beautiful.
