I want to get another tattoo...?

I have one on my foot and I want to get another one down the left side of my torso back and ribs a little bit...like a floral/swirley design with some pink ,yellow, orange and green and have some light blue waves in it somewhere..(beachy like) with some black.. or should I just get a cool design down my side with no color.. what do we think??
I want to get another tattoo...?
I love colors...and the fading depends on the persons skin. I have all color tattoos, and some are about 7 years old and haven't faded a bit. No touch ups yet...and same goes for my boyfriend who have sleeves and neck done. A good tattoo artist will do the color right. Also, a little trick is to let the tattoo dry heal...don't put anything on it..and let it scab and peel naturally...that will preserve the color very well. I know from experience! So I say make it beautiful with color!!!
Reply:I tend to avoid colors as they fade over time. You can retouch some, but with color spread, they don't bounce back as well as you might like.
Reply:Both sound interesting. A color tattoo will cost more and require more upkeep as you most likely will need to get it touched up years down the road. The beachy scene (to me) seems like it would better suit a body if it goes across the lower back and works up towards the shoulders (like in the shape of a fire, wider and the bottom and tapering upwards).
