I guess it all depends on what your definition of a home tat is. Did you use a tat gun with the proper ink? Or did you use a razor blade and then dribble ink from a ball point pen into it??
I doubt it will last.
Do you mean pen ink or indian ink?
yea it will last, my dad done his when he was my age and his is still there ! :(
Ok, it won’t last, that sort of ink will not stay in your skin, it isn’t designed for it, don’t start slicing yourself up, give it time, it will fade.
Medical advice - you need to look after whetre you did it, it could cause infection or poisoning.
I did one when i was 15, i forget when it went but it wasn’t there when i was 18!!
so it won’t stay forever :D yay, how do i look after it. i read that you have to moisturise it like 3-5 times a day
& seriously, don’t you think a f*****G big scar where you cut it out from will look worse than the tattoo?????
If you are convinsed it will stay & you really don’t want it, you can get a professional tat done over it to hide it.
Or, There is always lazer removal but i can’t swear that it works for pen ink, it prob does but i without guaranteed knowledge dont want to tell you it definately does.
i’m only 16 and my mother doesnt know i done it.so i can’t really get laser treatment, so… i guess getting a tattoo over it should work… since she told me i’m allowed one :)
To look after it, use antiseptic & often.
That is not recomended for a professional tat as it can fade it but in this case, you should do it to keep infection away.
Keep it clean all the time, not just antiseptic cream thats not good enough, use detol or TCP or something like that.
For a propper tat, you just use vasiline & that is just so the scab doesnt crust too much & flake off therefor fading it.
PS you are not alowed to get a tattoo under 18 yrs old.
what the bloody friggin frick O_o
