Does a Fine Line Tattoo Hurt?

Pain varies by person, but most people say fine line tattoos are more annoying than painful. Since the needlework is light and delicate, many find the experience easier than traditional tattoos.

How to Care for a Fine Line Tattoo

Proper aftercare helps keep the lines sharp and clean:

• Keep it moisturised with a gentle tattoo balm

• Avoid direct sun exposure

• Skip heavy workouts the first few days

• Don’t pick or scratch while it heals

Good aftercare = long-lasting, crisp lines.

How Long Do Fine Line Tattoos Last?

Fine line tattoos can last years, but their longevity depends on:

• Skin type

• Placement (hands & ribs fade faster)

• Artist skill

• Aftercare

Choosing an experienced fine line tattoo artist is key to getting a design that ages well.

Fine line tattoos look great in photos, which is why they’re everywhere on Instagram and TikTok. Many of my clients at @toritattoouk find inspo from online and come in ready to create something unique.
