I want a tattoo on my foot, right above my toes going up to my ankle. but i heard that they can fade and once I get it I really don't want to have to have it redone. I want to get a color mendi tattoo. using pastels I have another tatoo on my bum and it is the same colors do you think my foot would take them as well as that one.

a tattoo on the foot is going to fade regardless simply because it is the most used part of the body therefore it sheds skin cells 5 times faster than any other part of the body. a tattoo on the foot is also damaged by wearing tight shoes and rough socks. over all a tattoo on your foot anywere below the ankle is going to fade eventually into a blob. its recommended to touch-up the tattoo every 6 months to a year depending on how much you walk and they type of shoes/sock you wear Smile (This friendly advice given to you by the Manager of Knox Ink in Barbourville kentucky Smile visit us at www.knoxink.com
