    For what it's worth, the red heart you can see in the picture I posted a while back was done February of 2000, and hasn't been touched - I use sunscreen religiously, and seldom expose my tats to sun (I wear a t shirt when swimming).

    To be fair I never use sunscreen and my tats are almost twenty years old. When I first got tattooed vibrant colours were not really mainstream. Coloured inks may have been improved over the years for retention. These guys say to use use sun screen and I will agree. Talk to your tattooist he or she is more interested in you getting a tattoo to last, than to just do a crap tattoo for a quick buck.
