thumbs_glow-in-the-dark-tattoo.jpg Black light tattoo -  Just like this picture here illustrates, the artwork only appears under a black light. No worries about your folks finding out that way I would imagine.

This is not a “glow in the dark” ink, this only works under a black light and the process itself may leave scarring. There is some talk about how safe the ink is… read below...

 

 

Want a tattoo that no one will see? well, I guess it is an option these days

UV tattoos have been all the rage with ravers in recent years. They glowing works of art are popular among people that want to be more discreet about their tattoos. UV ink is used to spruce up an old tattoo with some black light glowing accents. Although UV tattoos look cool there is mounting concern they might not be too good for you health.

The chemical makeup of the different UV ink has some worried. UV tattoos have been responsible for skin rashes, infections and some doctors fear it is a carcinogenic. Some artist won’t work with the ink and others have no problem using it. With no ink regulations artists can use what they deem safe and make their own ink. Phosphorus has been taken out of UV inks due to the body rejecting the ink.

Regardless of what is being eliminated from UV ink, there is no telling what is safe to use black light tattoosuntil the Federal government steps in to regulate tattoos. Some tattoo shops advertise that their UV ink is approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) It is approved as a tracking liquid that is injected in to fish, not for human body art.

I think that more studies should be done and that inks should be regulated by the Federal government. Artists might know what they are dealing with, but there are also some that don’t want to mess with it. Regardless of the lack of regulations, or cancer warnings, there are some that still want a UV tattoo.

What is it?

black light tattoos contains chemicals that absorb the high energy UV rays for a few nanoseconds. Then the chemicals release the energy and the tattoo glows! There are many different colors of black light or UV reactive ink. For the titanium white color, in the absence of UV light, the tattoo can be completely transparent on light skin tones. Other colors are visible in any light but glow in black light!
You need a Blacklight to make the tattoo “GLOW”. All 17 blacklight tattoo ink colors show up in normal light. The 18th color UV Titanium White can be used on light skin tones to create virtually invisible tattoos - some light scaring may occur due to the tattooing process. The ink is NOT “glow-in-the-dark” but reactive to any blacklight. We do offer some blacklight keychains if you would like a mobile way of showing off your glowing ink.
