White Ink Tattoo

[SOJA]

I have been thinking about getting a tattoo for awhile, does anyone have experience with white ink tattoos? I've heard conflicting reports on if they fade/turn a nasty brown color. For reference I am white and fairly tan (Sicilian blood). Also do tattoos on feet generally fade away?

No more so than other places, however, if you are a man, the gayness associated with a foot tattoo will haunt you forever.

sun makes ink fade.

yea and unfortunately my foot will not only be exposed, during summer at least, but I feel like white ink would fade much faster than black

honestly, white ink always just looks like scarring to me... but on your feet, without sun screen, that shiats gonna go pretty quick.

see if you can track down tattoorhino... he could answer your questions.

Foot tattoo? Really?

I'd recommend against getting a white ink tattoo. A good friend of mine had one, and 2 years later he got it colored in black because it looked terrible.

Tattoos on feet don't generally fade. If you don't have any other tattoos, I'd also stay away from the foot. I feel foot tattoos are more of a compliment to other tattoos than a stand-alone thing.

If the guy is inked up all over the place I don't see a problem with it but if he has just one or two yes... gay.

thanks for the advice, clearly the foot part is getting more attention than the white ink part- I don't know where I am going to get it.
