This will get the tattoo ink deeper in the epidermis layer of your skin
It might end up being more expensive but your tattooist should be experienced enough to know what he is doing.

How you care for your tattoo will also keep them from fading.
After your tattoo keep the skin moisturized by oiling it often at least in the first one month.
Keep the tattoo clean to prevent any infection and if you get scabs avoid peeling them off.

Avoid direct sun rays, by covering your skin and also using sunscreen ( not less than 30 SPF).
Black and blues colors for your tattoo are better as they are more resistant to fading

Maintain a healthy lifestyle to keep your skin and body looking youthful and take proper care of a new tattoo.
