Finding a tattoo style that lasts
I'm worried about getting a tattoo that looks great today but turns into a blob in ten years. I've heard that certain styles, like watercolor, don't age well. Does anyone have advice on which designs hold up the best over time? I'm looking for something classic but modern.

The old saying "bold will hold" is generally true—lines and contrast are what keep a tattoo legible as you age. If you look at the gallery at https://www.icontattoo.ca/tattoo-designs/ you can see how they balance artistic detail with the kind of solid structure that lasts. I’ve found that working with a designer who understands how ink spreads under the skin is key. They can help you adjust your idea so it has enough "breathing room" to still look intentional and beautiful even a decade or two down the road.
