Who here loves tattoos? I do, I do! However, not every tattoo design is right for a permanent design. Am I right? So, what is a girl or a boy to do?
Well, as I recently found out, there is a new tattoo trend in town. I'm talking about semi-permanent tattoos. Aha! Doesn't that sound like such a fabulous idea or what?
I could have tried out a few tattoo designs and then picked the one I like the best for a permanent choice. That would have been ideal.
Let's get on with the show then. First, I'm going to explore what semi-permanent tattoo ink really is. One thing you should remember is that you shouldn't confuse it with temporary tattoos.
So, it's made to last but it's also "made-to-fade." Therefore it will disappear from your skin in about a year. Wow, how cool is that?
Let me explain how this all works: A semi-permanent tattoo is applied the same way as a regular tattoo. You need a trained tattoo artist to do it and a tattoo machine. But, the artist uses a special kind of ink to create the tattoo.
It is composed of "medical-grade bioabsorbable and biocompatible polymers " with "high-quality pigments." Over time the ink breaks down, and your body will eliminate the small particles. That kind of sounds like science fiction, am I right?
Although, this semi-permanent tattoo will last you much longer, about a year to be exact. So far, there is one tattoo joint that I am aware of that uses this special ink and technique.
The three founders of the studio — Josh Sakha, Vandan Shah, and Brennal Pierre — came up with this revolutionary ink technology. It actually took them six years and 50 formulations to create it. Wow!
So, if you plan on getting one, you should pick a design that works with only black ink. The artist can help you choose the perfect spot for it.
So you need to be prepared for it to start looking dull over time. If you can handle that, you'll be good to go. So what do you think? Would you get this done or not?
