i really want to get one of my tattoos outlined in UV ink but there has been so many rumors about it not being safe, what kind of ink did you use for yours?
like somewhere without a black light, cuz i want it to be visible in dark areas but im obviously not going to carry a black light with me every where to show it off
really all you have to be concerned about is skin irritation, cancer is a myth, you can get it from standing out in the sun, then depending the ink, and treatment can cause discoloration and fading/ changing of colors, there are ongoing concerns but as these tattoos become more popular, safer procedures are coming about...
UV tattoo's ink are NOT glowing inks.... they are 're-acting' to the lights of UV. it will fade in time like other inks however a good piece of work wont 'loose' much ink after it is healed and well taken care of...eg. Stay away from direct sunlight. And no new colored tattoo over the existing UV tatt.
Do a search on your local tattoo studios and call them up b4 u go over....
When you are there at their location...you need to see that they have enough UV lights to lighten up the work area,professionally to work with UV inks.
@MickalAngelus it contains toxic metals and products to make it glow obviouisly or it would not glow up, wat im saying is some people have bad reactions to this ink u were 1 of the lucky ones
@chaosdominator if you get the uv ink alone it's invisible. It's common to be bordered with another color that you can see, so it just adds effects to the tat when under a blacklight. It also depends on the persons skin tone
@7thrx the ink can cause bad reactions in some people, in some cases as serious as dermatitis. however the ink has been developed, looked into and made alot more skin friendly, most people sporting UV tattoos have had little or no reaction.
and just for the record, all ink doesn't belong naturally in your skin, and all ink can give you a bad reaction, so it's all toxic.
@ploopsy666 Yes and no. Your skin is being altered so there is scaring. Also, keep in mind that the bigger the tattoo the more it shows. My one arm is completely covered in tribal and you can see it in the daylight but not very well. Most people have to take a double take and then ask why my arm looks odd. They never can quite put their finger on what's up with my arm. Just something to think about.
i have one on my left hand its music notes (feel free to copy haha jk) but nah fo real i got it like 2 months ago and you cud see it its like wen u cut urself but it leaves a mark like a little scar so my skin is like i guess shiny and im not sure if its gonna go away i was hoping for it to only show under the black light but idk i guess im happy with it hahaha its addictive im 17 and i have 6 tattoos and i started on september and ima get another one on january 3rd I CANT STOP!!! PLEASE HELP!!!
@MickalAngelus well iv got 2 and i say its all in the head, if youv got the money to get tatts you just love the feeling of needle ramming thru your skin prob 1000times a mint it gave me a rush first time i got a tat done i went back for another, now i want another, soo
this is nice... the first uv tattoo I've seen that's not a skeleton thank god... people who get bones and skeletons for uv tattoo is too common. ur tattoo should be something unique, ur tattoo and something that actually means something to you imo. getting something that every other person has seems so... I don't know, boring and overrated. Now I'm wondering if anybody with uv tattoos has gotten a uv tattoo that doesn't glow blue.
I know they come in assorted colors, but I just haven't seen anyone get anything other than blue except for one picture of an orange like fire tribal tattoo. No one on youtube seems to have posted up a uv tattoo that doesn't glow blue either. If you could send me a link or whatever your facebook account is, I'd be glad to look at it.
first make sure it is WHITE UV ink.... and your tattooist is pro..... not using you for his first try. excessive bleeding cause scaring and lost of ink.
2nd, u make sure there is no scar by not picking it!
3rd, get into the sun (tan) to return your skin to its normal tone.
in about 7 weeks..... it probably look as normal as it was before u got the UV tattoo. this is not a promise becos i am not the one working on your tat. :)
@MickalAngelus working on a tan immediately after getting a UV reactive tattoo is a bad idea. the ink reacts to the light, making it duller and duller.
i want to get a UV tatoo of like, a skeleton arm ON my arm but im trying to find out if its possible to get it done so it's invisible under normal light and only visible under a darklight cuz that would be BALLIN lol. you walk into a club lookin normal then all of a sudden you look like a skeleton? freaken kick ass!
yea lke is tht possible bcz i want a tat bt lke a surprise one lke whoa!!1 is she glowin!?!? frekn awesome!!! i want somethin mean nd funnay maybe a sex joke or w/e
@zackdavis1 You need to find a very good tattooist that you have alot of faith in, because if there is scarring done initially then everyone will be able to see it. There is clear UV ink [doesn't show in normal light] and it's available in a variety of colours [white to purple] that only show under a blacklight.
@zackdavis1 thats the way it does work, there will be a scar from the proceedure itself for afew months but then its virtually invisible. there are also other kinds that are visible in normal light and glow in black light( what you saw in this vid). But ya, some are invisible in normal light and only show up in black light. Its way more expensive than a reg tattoo though.
@zackdavis1 Well they have to dig into the skin deep enough to put the ink in, so i would imagine they would look like bad scars under normal light.... I'm not sure how noticeable it would be, but you would expect some trace of it under normal light
Pues ni idea de donde los hacen ,es mas, te va a resultar difícil encontrar a alguien que los haga por que nadie se atreve después de todo lo que se ha montado alrededor de esta tinta, que si es cancerígena, etc, etc y en algunos lugares esta incluso prohibido tatuar con esto.
Is it possible to get a regular black ink tattoo and then get a UV/Blacklight tattoo of something completely different over it and the 2 tattoos not interfere or distort with each other???
haha it's cool lol a blashlight when you need one XD. The only thing is you have to get it done by a very skilled tattooist because the ink is very hard towork with and can end up "blochie" because it is harder to spread.
simple ans is yes. technical speaking, we have to look into your healing capabilities and skin condition....and the damage your tattooist may induced plus your own picking habit.... it (scar) may be raised aboved skin.
Seems to me, that I'm going to get my sixth tattoo with this!

Stay away from direct sunlight if u want the scar marks to disappear.....otherwise sun tann it to keep the marks.
Sunlight cause scars to turn to a darker than skin tone.
