Anyone have a white ink tattoo?

I'm thinking if getting a quote on my wrist in white ink. A quote that has been inspirational to me through thus journey. Just wondering if anyone else has one and your thoughts on them.

  • I don't have one, but I have seen them and I think they are awesome. If I ever got a tattoo, that's what it would be.

    A friend of mine has a couple, they look lovely, not too obvious which I think is the point :-)

    I want one, but you have to be very careful not to get them in a place that is often exposed to the sun. Supposedly, they can yellow, after a while.

    I have never heard of white ink tattoos before. I juts googled it and it kind of reminds me of a burn. Do they fade quicker?
  • It's funny I'm this --> <-- close to getting one on my wrist or foot myself and was talking about it last night with a friend who has regular tats. I did hear that they are more likely to need to be redone as time goes by but that's ok with me.

    I just googled it also. It looks like a skin carving scar. But, maybe they were fresher. The one above me looks pretty!!

    I've always thought they looked like sores, but perhaps I've only seen pictures of fresh ink. They're a neat idea, but I think they're hard to execute!

    The artist who did my shoulder used white mixed with a small amount of sterilized water for the shading on the cloud... I can honestly say that part hurt the worst... but it was probably the fact that it was shading...
