Fineline Tattoo

Fine Line Tattoo
Fine line tattoos are exactly what they sound like super thin, delicate lines that create soft, detailed designs. They’re perfect if you love tattoos that are more elegant rather than bold or heavy.
This style is all about the little things. Whether it’s a tiny floral, a meaningful quote, your favorite symbol, or something totally custom.
Fineline tattoos are a delicate and artistic form of tattooing that use extremely thin needles to create crisp detail lines. They are known for their subtle elegant appearance, and are perfect for those who want something meaningful yet soft and understated.
Unlike traditional tattoos that use bold lines, fine line tattoo work focuses on precision, minimalism and fine details making it ideal for small design, single needle work, script, florals, symbols, or micro tattoos.

Permanent makeup (PMU) is cosmetic tattooing that enhances your natural features like shaping your brows, defining your eyes, or adding color to your lips. It’s meant to boost your everyday appearance and confidence.
Paramedical tattooing focuses on restorative work for people who’ve had surgeries, scars, or skin trauma.
It includes treatments like:
Scar camouflage to blend discolored scars into your natural skin tone
Inkless scar revision (microneedling) to smooth and improve scar texture using serums, no pigment required
3D areola tattoos for breast cancer survivors or after top surgery
Belly button restoration tattoos after tummy tucks or other abdominal procedures
Phalloplasty pigmentation for clients who have undergone gender affirming bottom surgery and want natural looking color and definition
So while PMU is aesthetic, paramedical tattooing is restorative, supporting both physical and emotional healing.

For all Paramedical Tattoos (3D Areola, Scar Revision/Camouflage, 3D Belly Button and Phallus Repigmentation) Patch testing is required for all paramedical procedures. We recommend booking your patch test at least 1 week before your session to allow time for any delayed skin reactions. Allergic reactions (especially delayed hypersensitivity) can take up to 72 hours to appear. This is especially important for clients with sensitive skin, autoimmune conditions, or past allergic responses. It also gives time to assess both pigment and anesthetic reactions. We’ll send details by email and ask you to sign a waiver
It is a semi permanent Cosmetic Tattoo performed with a digital machine to implant pigment into the deeper layers of the epidermis. It is ideal for people who do not want themaintenance on a daily basis.
After your tattoo session, there are several things you should avoid to protect the area and support pigment retention:
For the first 7–14 days (or until fully healed), avoid:
-Direct sun exposure or tanning
-Swimming (pools, hot tubs, lakes, oceans)
-Excessive sweating (intense workouts or saunas)
-Applying makeup, lotions, or oils on the treated area
-Scratching, picking, or peeling any flaking skin or scabs
-Sleeping directly on the tattooed area
-It’s also best to avoid using exfoliating products, harsh cleansers, or active skincare (like retinols or acids) near the tattooed site until it’s fully healed.
Pain tolerance varies from person to person, but fine line tattoos often feel less intense than traditional tattoos because less shading and pressure are used. However, placement on sensitive areas can still cause discomfort.
Fine line tattoos can last for many years, but because they’re more delicate, they may fade faster over time, especially in high-friction or sun exposed areas. Touch ups may be needed to maintain their crisp appearance.
All tattoos age over time, but proper aftercare and sun protection can help maintain clarity.
Follow your the aftercare instructions, which usually include keeping the area clean, avoiding direct sun exposure, and applying a healing ointment. Avoid scratching or picking at the area during healing.
Yes, in many cases! Fine line designs can work over healed scars, but an assessment Is needed.
Initial healing takes 7–10 days, but full healing may take 4–6 weeks. During that time, the tattoo will settle into the skin and soften slightly.
One complimentary touch up within (usually 6–8 weeks) is included if needs be.
Fine line tattoos are ideal for minimal, detailed, and delicate designs like florals, symbols, script, constellations, or micro portraits. Designs with lots of shading or bold outlines aren’t recommended for this style.
Yes absolutely, Fine line tattoos are a great choice for your first time because they’re generally smaller, quicker, and less painful. However, some areas of the body are more sensitive.
They’re most commonly done in black or gray, but can incorporate subtle colors. Keep in mind that colored fine line tattoos may fade faster and require more touch ups.
No, numbing is not offered in the studio. Fine line tattoos are typically well tolerated due to their delicate nature and minimal trauma to the skin. A little discomfort is part of the process and comes with the territory. Most clients find it manageable.
Pricing varies by size, complexity. There is a minimum fee, even for tiny designs. Fine line work often requires more precision, which can affect the price. Final pricing will be confirmed during your consultation.
Fine line tattoos use single needles or very thin liners to create soft, delicate lines, rather than the bold outlines or heavy shading typical of traditional tattoos.
Those with extremely oily skin, frequent sun exposure, or conditions like eczema on the tattoo site may experience more fading. Clients should also be able to commit to aftercare and understand potential for touch ups.
Sometimes, yes. It depends on the location, depth, and color of the stretch marks. An in person consultation is best to determine suitability.
Yes, since the lines are so fine, precision is everything. A blowout happens when ink spreads under the skin.
You’re welcome to send inspiration or reference images ahead of time but I’m not a walk in studio, so all designs must be discussed and approved in advance. I’ll work with your ideas and create a custom design tailored to your skin and the fine line style. A design fee applies, and nothing is tattooed without a prior consultation and final approval.
