WHITE INK

16-09-2009 2:13am#1Hi all,
Why are tatts of white ink SO difficult to find online?
Why are they so rare?
They even seem unheard of in all the major sites.
I searched hours and hours to see some and only found three.
Also, if anyone can put me straight
- I read that they have to be done with a black/grey outline,
which is then done over with the white ink and sometimes the process doesnt work as the two can mix and create the opposite effect
- ie; not white.
Is this true???

heya,
nice big thread on white tattoos a while back located below:
http://boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055634944
yes off colouring is possible but experienced artists do make a difference, ie, a metal gun holding the needle can cause the ink to become discoloured due to the metals rubbing off each other (duno how much of that is true). Mine have healed up perfectly without discolour and i have every intention of getting more done.
Also i think they are rare due to the misunderstanding that white is UV. Its not, it doesnt glow and (i could be very wrong but i dont see how) it doesnt have the carcenogenic chemicals contained in UV ink (not sure on the facts on this but i have heard it). It isnt as unusual as you think, just tends to be more subtle and not as easy to spot
