WHAT COLORS WORK BEST WITH DARK SKIN?
The darker your skin the darker the color you should use. Stick to black, blues, greens, and red. Stay away from white, yellows, and oranges. Your skin is translucent, not transparent. If you put white in brown skin, the skin grows back over the tattoo as it heals and makes the white look light brown. This is why your tattoo looks like it fades a little as it heals. It goes from being an open wound, where you can see the pigment clearly, to looking at it through your skin as your skin heals and grows back over the pigment. This is something we can do nothing about.
