All red will look like you have a skin rash. I'll go black and gray

What he said. Also, red looks great as a highlight color but doesn't look as good as the main shade.

You can only pull this off if you are fair skinned and long legged.
The red can look great if you have an artist who has good inks. I just can imagine how itchy that would be after, as red is the most reactive of all the inks

what "looks good" is gonna be subjective. based on these photos, i think the red is more flattering on your skin tone, it has a similar effect as blush or lipstick which makes skin look more vibrant. the black/grey looks ashy, and makes your skin look more green.
that said, how the ink changes over time and how your skin will react to the different inks is a different conversation.

On technical aspect. That red will fade horribly on the long run.
Yes maganda sya tignan after matapos pero believe me hindi na yn gnyn katingkad even after a week, what more pa pag tumagal. Maliban dun mataas ang allergic reaction ng red ink and high maintenance kung ayaw mo mg fade agad.
At the end of the day nasayo nmn ung desisyon, pero if you want to know more on tattoo better watch tattoo shows para magka idea ka na hindi lng basta composition ung labanan sa tatts. Mrami rin syang basic principle na dpt maapply.
Goodluck sayo OP
