Fine line work softens faster than blackwork because the lines are thinner. With sun protection and quality aftercare you can expect this piece to stay crisp for 5–10 years before any optional touch-up. Placement matters too — high-friction areas blur sooner.

Pigment fade is mostly driven by UV exposure. In Delhi we strongly recommend SPF 50 on any healed colour tattoo when it's exposed to sun, plus an annual moisturising routine. With those habits, colour holds well for years.

Pain varies person to person, but the wrist is generally considered a moderate placement on the standard pain scale. Most clients describe the sensation as manageable in two to three hour blocks; longer sessions are broken with short resets.

Healing in this area benefits from loose, breathable clothing for the first two weeks, no submerged water (pools, bathtubs), and avoiding direct sun. We send a written aftercare plan after every appointment and stay on WhatsApp through your healing window.
