Moving ahead
of the common black ink tattoos we now have white ink tattoos. These tattoos
are more subtle and do not flash straight into the eye. In the first look it
might look like a design made on the skin surface, if done badly it might also
look like a scar. White tattoos are a little more tricky than black tattoos.
Read on to know more about them.
White
tattoos are not suitable for all skin types. They might not be visible on dark
skin at all. They should preferably be done on white skin. However it is not
only the skin color that is important for getting a white ink tattoo. That is
infact the least of the problems. The main thing that you should pay attention
to while getting a white ink tattoo is the design of the tattoo and the
experience of the tattoo artist.
All designs
are not good designs for a white ink tattoo. If a design is too small, it might
end up looking like a scar or a mosquito bite. Whereas a design to big might
look like a skin pattern and turn off all those around you. There are very high
chances of a white ink tattoo becoming an eyesore for those around you. This is
not to discourage you from getting one but just to make you realize that these
are more complex than black tattoos. And should be well thought of.
The
trickiest part of getting a white ink tattoo is deciding on the right tattoo
artist. Not every tattoo artist will be good with white ink, primarily because
these tattoos do not have any well defined boundaries or outlines, they depend
on shadows and are made under UV light. A good tattoo artist will not only give
you a good tattoo but will also guide you on whether you have chosen the right
design or not ? Do you have the ideal skin type for a white tattoo or not?
