My shoulders have some light to medium-dark freckles on them and I want to get a sun tattoo using yellow and orange inks. Would the freckles be likely to show through the light colors?

I have freckles that show through darker blues and green ink in my tattoos, so yes, almost certainly!

  2. My tattooist strategically placed my design around darker freckles/moles I have. You can still see them but if your artist does a good job it won’t detract from the finished product!!

  3. Don’t let that discourage you from getting the sun though :)

  5. I have an orange tabbie cat tattoo on my shoulderblade. She’s got freckles =)

  6. Actually, with the sun, this could look like sun spots…
