Why wouldn't my skin hold the ink? I was getting a tattoo yesterday (3 bands on my left forearm) and for some reason when he went to color it in my skin would not hold the ink. This is not my first tattoo and I have a lot of coloring on my other arm (8-hour piece) and I have never had this problem. What could cause that to happen or what could I do to prevent it from happening in my next session?
Ink not holding

It could be due to many reasons:
a) artist messed up your skin tissue that all the skin and ink turns into a scab that will fall. Usually this happens when over working the skin.
b) not going deep enough
c) going too deep
d) bad aftercare
e) something else
