A Recipe for Disaster an Outcome of Tattoo Regret:
So we’ve probably all wondered how one makes a homemade tattoo. We’ve seen many people wearing these less than attractive tattoo designs on their arms and legs. Known for looking homemade, India Ink tattoos, are closer to the skin’s surface than most tattoos, because they are one, done by individuals and not professional tattoo artists but, two, they are not made of the same ink pigments as professional tattoos and therefore do not hold the same brightness as other ink pigments. So exactly how does one make a homemade tattoo? The ingredients and directions are listed below, but just to fair warn you, this is exactly how you can send yourself into a spiraling frenzy of tattoo regret.
Ingredients:
1 Bottle India Ink (black liquid acrylic)
1 Razor
1 Thin Tipped Marker
1 Medium Size Cooking Pot
1 Roll of Paper Towels
1 Sewing Needle
1 #2 Pencil
1 Spool of Thread
6 Cups of Water
2 Gloves (optional)
Directions:
First turn your stove top burner to high and bring water to a boil. Once the water is boiling, dip the sewing needle into the boiling water for fifteen minutes; this will sterilize the needle. Once sterile, remove needle and place on a clean paper towel for thirty seconds to let it cool.
With your thumb and index fingers, take the sterilized needle and place it alongside the eraser of the number two pencil. The tip of the needle should protrude a ½ inch further than the top of the pencil eraser. The needle should not be placed in the center of the eraser. The sharp side of the needle should be facing up.
Wrap the thread tightly around the erasing end of the pencil where the needle is touching. Wrap it several times to hold the pencil and the needle tightly together. The pencil acts as a handle for the tattoo artist.
Once the needle and the pencil have been tightly fastened together with several layers of thread, carefully wrap the thread around the protruding ½ inch tip of the needle two times leaving the last 1/16th of an inch exposed. Tie the thread off and make a knot to ensure it does not unravel.
You’ll want to burn the 1/16th of an inch exposed portion of the needle with the flame of a lighter, for thirty seconds to a minute, for sanitation. Place on clean paper towel.
Next you’ll want to take the razor and shave any body hair from the surface of the intended tattoo area; then using a thinly tipped marker, draw tattoo design onto skin.
Open the bottle of India Ink and dip the ½ inch tip of the needle into it for ten seconds, or until the thread has absorbed the ink. Do not leave needle tip submerged in ink for too long, as you do not want excessive dripping.
Holding the middle of the pencil, using it as a handle, begin pricking the surface of the skin with the top of 1/16th of an inch of the needle which is exposed and not wrapped with thread. It is necessary to puncture the skin but not unnecessarily deep.
Be sure to wipe away excess ink as needed with clean paper towels. Now cross your fingers and pray as you look down at what you have just done to yourself. You have given yourself a means of tattoo regret. It may look good for the next day or so, or even the next couple of months, but keep in mind that years from now, this tattoo will be slightly faded and a pure reminder of your younger, less thoughtful days.

The number of Americans sporting tattoos seems to be on the rise and yet another group is acquiring new members. This new group is a group of those who want their tattoo removed. But what these newcomers are quickly learning that taking off their “forever art” is not quite as easy as putting it on.
However, there is a new hope that is on the horizon or so it seems. With the invention of removable tattoo ink, by Freedom2Ink, the thought of a tattoo being forever might come a thing of the past. A group of founding doctors, with a goal to help those who have come to regret permanently decorating their bodies with tattoos, worked to develop this new ink so that it could eventually be removed should the bearer so choose.
Freedom-2's ink is removable because it is encapsulated in tiny beads made of polymethylmethacrylate, a synthetic material common in surgical glue and in many types of artificial joints. The sphere-encased ink looks and feels the same as current inks used in tattooing, and will remain in place as long as desired. If the tattooed person decides later that they no longer want the tattoo, it will be easily removed by applying laser energy to the beads causing them to fall apart in a single laser treatment.
With tattoo removal made easier and the fear of lifelong commitment removed, it seems the floodgates may be about to pour open with the folks on the fence about getting a tattoo now ready to take the plunge.
As for the rest of the inked nation wanting to forget their forever art, tattoo removal is still achievable, it just comes in due time.
