Tattooing dark toned skin can be difficult if you approach skin as a medium like paper or canvas. In reality, the person tattooers work with is unique. They are an individual. So, when an artist treats dark toned skin the same as light toned skin, the resulting tattoo will not live up to what is possible. Its like using a fork to eat cereal - the instrument you are brute forcing could be better suited in a different arena.

Because someone asked for it (Thanks for the suggestion!!), we decided to give you a few quick tips on how best to approach, complete, and care for a tattoo on dark toned skin.

Extra things to think about (which means go and study this stuff):
What is the microbiome?
How long do lotions stay in the skin?
How does light energy interact with melanin?
