Hey! I have heard that you can get a white tattoo. I do not know much about tattoos in general but am interested in getting more info on white tattoos. My best friend and i are thinking about getting one but we dont know anything about them. Does anyone have one that i could see a picture of and tell me about it? thanks!!

White can be done, but be careful... they do tend to yellow with time. Most folks use little dabs of white to add highlights

AGAIN.......an all white tattoo is a bad idea...it will fade off and look like a blob of scar tissue...white is used to highlight or it's used to in other colors of ink to lighten them..like mixing paint.

Look sounds to me you want an white tattoo because you dont want anybody to see it . Very bad idea anyway they dont age well . But very easy too cover up with a real tat .

Why is it that all white tats do not age well?

Why is it that they will degrade into the look of scar tissue allergic chemicals?

White tattoo's will go into your skin talk to your artist about it. Good Luck.

White ink is typically used for doing highlights in tattoos.A entirely white tattoo is likely to fade to the point of being barely visible pending on the type of ink they use.
