While white ink tats are gaining in popularity. However, before getting one, there are some issues that you need to understand and figure it out with white ink tattoo.
A fact is that many people with darker skin tones can not absorb enough of the white pigment for it to appear brightly on their skin. Some of these people may also find that they have a reaction to the white pigment, which is much more common than a reaction to black tattoo ink. For some people, the white ink areas will swell, itch and may even ooze from the tattoo. This can be a sign of your skin actually rejecting the white pigment, and you may end up with no tattoo in that area at all.
Another issue with white tattoos is that these white tattoos are not ideal for areas of the body that will be exposed to the sun and weather elements. White pigment can turn quite dull if frequently exposed to the sun, so it's important to choose an area that will be covered when outdoors such as your chest, back or even the underside of your arm. And if you have to do that, make sure you consult your artist and take care of it.
The last one is about designs of a white tattoos, What sort of tattoo looks good in white pigment? Well, generally, a simple designs will be more suitable for a white tattoo. They are easier for the artist to ink and less likely to have complications. Words and texts, stars, small hearts, geometry graphics, tribal designs and little Celtic patterns are all good ideas for white tats. Getting white colored tattoos such as these can be a good way to have a tattoo that's "just for you" - a personal mantra or important word or symbol as an affirmation that you don't want just anyone to be able to read. For these, foreign script such as Arabic, Chinese, Sanskrit or Tibetan are some ideal options. Crystal Taylorz
