Mortar dye

Hi all.
The back yard paving is not far from completion.
I chose indian stone and I'd like to dye the mortar between the slabs
to a more attractive colour (probably brown).
The pavior told me that there is a risk of staining.
Is this correct?
If so, how to minimize the risk? (masking tape?)

There's a risk of staining no matter which mortar you use, with or without
dye...personally I wouldn't reccomend dye, because within 6 months it will
have gone away to leave natural mortar...it lasts slightly longer on walls
etc but on paving slabs it simply washes off, or goes green.
