UV TATTOOS ▷ Gallery and Characteristics Advantages Disadvantages ❤️💜🖤

Today we will talk about one of the most controversial phenomena in tattoo art - ultraviolet tattoos. 

Compared to other types of body painting, this is one of the most innovative ways, on the one hand, and risky, on the other, to decorate your body.

Let's say right away that this direction has its opponents, so in this article we will try to analyze the key advantages and disadvantages of UV tattooing.

Pros:

1. First, ultraviolet tattoos are definitely unusual and creative . At almost any party you can stand out and be noticed.
2. Of course, invisible tattoos that appear at night are a good outlet for office workers who are plagued by piercings and tattoos.

Disadvantages:

1. 1. Not many people are familiar with this direction of tattooing, so even in a nightclub such a decoration can look like a cheap translator or a unique drawing with luminescent paint.
   2. The main disadvantage is the possible damage of such a tattoo on the skin. The UV pattern is applied with a special pigment that, according to research, it can lead to severe allergies, inflammation and even skin cancer.

Therefore, few masters agree to do this type of work. However, progress does not stand still, and today new types of dyes that are less harmful to the skin appear.

1. Another disadvantage is the price. UV painting is much more expensive than usual, so this type of work can cost you quite a bit of money.

Well, it remains to be desired that you treat yourself body reasonably and don't sacrifice it for art.

According to some opinions, it is temporary and after a few months it completely fades away. This is not true! The ink used for ultraviolet (or fluorescent) tattooing is exactly the same as the usual one, with the addition of an additional component - a phosphor - a powder that is charged by light and, under the influence of ultraviolet radiation, releases the Stored energy. in the form of a glow Consequently, the combination of these components creates the effect of a "shiny tattoo", with the most common color tint providing a different color.

The UV pigment consists of pure distilled water and a synthetic polymer PMMA, which is used in medicine and is therefore safe for humans. It has been specially designed to keep materials glowing for as long as possible, so when combined with 'Glow Powder', you get the perfect composition of fluorescent tattoo ink. Doctors talk about the hypoallergenicity of this composition, but in any case, we recommend that you always test the paint in order to avoid an undesirable reaction. We stand for safe, time-tested, and human-tested pigments that we always have in stock at Shoptattoo.

Why do we insist on careful handling of this paint?

First of all, do not forget that this is the same paint as any other, so an allergic reaction is not excluded in any case. Itching, even after complete healing, a slight burning sensation and discomfort are only a small part of what can happen. Therefore, have double careful when choosing a brand of paint.

Secondly, UV paint is much more runny and in some companies it has an oily consistency and is much more difficult to get under your skin, so don't be surprised if after a few weeks it starts to "float" along. of the outlines, even if it is filled in over the usual old tattoos. Also, people who want to make an “invisible drawing” for themselves will be disappointed: if the work is done poorly, a scar will remain at the place of the tattoo, which may not fade over time, but will burn out brown. . Sun.

Thirdly, before applying UV paint yourself, you need to carefully select an experienced master who, if you have not met such a pigment before, then at least have sufficient skills and experience to do the job efficiently and accurately. In addition, a UV lamp will be necessary to work, especially if you have opted for white or colorless paint.

We emphasize the fact that the drawing will ONLY glow in ultraviolet light. 

When the paint glows in the dark, phosphorus is added to it, which is not only harmful to humans in the form of a chemical, but also dangerous, not to mention the consequences of getting it under the skin. Therefore, be prepared for the fact that your tattoo will acquire its distinctive features only the first time after its application, but over time, unfortunately, like any other paint, it will begin to fade.

It's natural for everyone to look for opportunities to stand out in one way or another, but don't forget that new trends may not always be safe, and the consequences are joyous. Of course, FDA-approved safe UV tattoo ink has already been developed, but you never know for sure.

Be careful and thoughtful when choosing a pigment for your drawing. Shoptattoo take care of your health!
