Fine Line Tattooing is one of the most sought after styles currently. It allows an individual to get the thrill of getting a Tattoo without having to commit to a large piece on a sizeable chunk of skin, as these Tattoos are often delicate and discreet.

Fine line tattooing consists of distinct straight or thin lines, without gradations in shade or color to represent 2D or 3D objects, emphasizing form and outline over color, shading, and texture.

This style of tattooing is done by using round liner needles, which have three needle tips. So often individuals might experience less pain than you would getting a Traditional Tattoo that involves thicker, bolder lines. The more precise the needle, the more options there are with regards to designs.

A great benefit of Fine Line Tattoos is that unlike colorful tattoos, where the skin needs to be penetrated deeper and longer in order to fully absorb the color, fine line tattoos cause less stress on your body and therefore take less time to heal. Less Skin being broke = Less time to heal.

Fine line tattoos are often only created with black, grey and red ink. Although at first glance one may feel this would make a tattoo 'plain', it does the opposite. It adds appeal through simplicity and clarity, making Fine Line Tattoo's instantly readable.

As Fine Line Tattoos are usually smaller and more discrete than Traditional Tattoos, many Celebrities have decided to go down is route of Tattoos, as Fine Line Tattoos don't overwhelm their appearance, but rather compliment it. An example of such would be DJ Peggy Gou.
