Fine line requires a control of pressure and speed that can only be acquired through sustained practice. It's a style that doesn't forgive mistakes: the line comes out clean or it doesn't. We've been incorporating this technique for years because demand justified it and because the result, when well executed, ages better than many believe.
What is a fine line tattoo?
Fine line uses single needle techniques to create extremely thin, precise lines. The result is delicate, almost drawn-like tattoos that age beautifully.

Ideal placements
Fine line works beautifully on wrists, ankles, behind the ear, fingers, and other discrete areas. The delicate nature makes them perfect for first tattoos or adding to existing collections.
