I think the short answer is no, I was told even the most talented and represented artists can sometimes have blowout on their work. Sometimes it's just your skin, sometimes it's how you care for your tattoos after, not just the weeks to follow, but for the rest of your life... it's a luck thing really, I think.
That said, going to a reputable and experienced artist would probably mean the chances of shit happening are lower.

Not sure if has been covered but I have a newb query about bleed. I fancy getting something done but the absolute most Important thing for me is really dark black and sharp crisp edges that stay that way and don't bleed.
Most peoples tattoos that I see are green and even with the blacker ones there always seems to be bleed/loss of sharpness after some time. One of my friends who had something done only a couple years ago has actually SMUDGED! All over the place and looks so awful.
Is it possible to guarantee cripsness and blackness through either skills of artist or materials they use?
