Does gaining muscle mass affect the appearance of a tattoo?
If you gain muscle mass then it will stretch it. But if you gain a lot of muscle mass then it will stretch it and make it fade color. Depending on how much muscle mass you gain will depend on how much it stretches and fades. the tattoo should stretch to fit with your new size. however using steroids will cause the tattoo to stretch too far in one direction or another, thus permanently disfiguring it. whether it will fade i dont know. but the tattoo will resize with you skin (Assuming natural muscle growth).
Does tanning fade tattoo?
The answer is YES, YES, YES!!!! But we should answer this question in two parts. 1. The brand new tattoo: The healing of a new tattoo is very dependent on keeping it out of direct sun light for at least three [3] weeks....Sun damage to a new tattoo will bleach out the color and make the tattoo take forever to heal.....The professional artist can usually tell when this has happened.... 2. The healed tattoo: The color of your bright and shiny new, but freshly healed tattoo will stay brighter and last longer depending on how much sun you get over the years...When you get enough ink on you to buy a good used car with what you have invested in it, you will probably start to believe that Ol. Mr. Sun isn't the good buddy you used to think he was....After several years of deep tanning the ultra violet rays of the sun will cause your color to break down and fade...So use common sense, use a real good spf tanning cream over your tattoo work...... And remember, tanning beds use ultra violet rays and they are not weakened by traveling hundreds of thousands of miles thru space....So don't think it will not harm your tattoos, new or old.....Hope this helps...

What happens to a new tattoo after swimming?
Yes and no, soaking in water will damage a new tattoo but taking a shower is fine. However, when showering, don't soap the tattoo or scrub it. You should make sure that you let the new ink completely heal before swimming or taking a bath and soaking it. And always use sunblock when you are exposed to the sun, otherwise the ink will fade. minimum of 2 weeks - until all flaking and peeling is finished and all scabs have fallen off. Even then, you're taking a risk getting in a chemically treated pool or bacteria-infested pond or lake, especially if you stay for an extended period of time. A tattoo is not considered fully healed until a new layer of protective skin has grown over it - this process usually takes about 3 months. Until then, your tattoo is most vulnerable to all elements - bacteria, sun, chemicals, pollution, etc. This is why getting a tattoo during the summer is not recommended, especially for swimmers and beach bunnies! If you've already got the tattoo, all I can really recommend now is stay out of the pool for at least 2 weeks and then keep your swimming to a minimum if you absolutely must go, and make sure you clean your tattoo thorougly after getting out of the water. If you can hold out for the full 3 month perdiod, you'll be doing your new tattoo a great service and I guarantee that it will have been worth the sacrifice. http://tattoo.about.com/od/tatfaq/f/swimming.htm As long as you stay out of the water until the tatoo is completely healed it will be fine, the water is not what messes it up, it is the chemicals in the water like chlorine and what not. Pool water won't hurt a tattoo after it is healed but you should be sure to use sunblock because the sun is not good for tattoos - it can cause them to fade. I know this because my tattoo artist nags me about it everytime I go see him. :D No, cholrine will not bleach out your tattoo, tattoos fade anyways, it is just people only notice this after swimming because frankly nobody looks at their own tattoo after a few months of having it, unless someone else tells you about it. Now, sun will make you tattoo fade and kinda bleed out (not blood, but the colors will spread about and blur you tattoo) this may sound bad, but you will want to put spf 30 on your tattoo every time you go out, it gives good protection for your tattoo. tattoo ink is not like dye, it is an opaque ink that will just sunfade. Chemical fading (especially with the new inks). However, you do want to wait 2 weeks after getting a tattoo before swimming with it because you may risk some sort of infection.
