For this, you will add very small amounts of black ink to the red and thoroughly mix the two until you come to a hue that you are happy with. Other than this, you can simply buy the shade of ink that you are wanting to save yourself the time. If you do mix the ink yourself, write down and keep notes on how many drops you added to the ink that gave you the desired shade so you don't have to go through the process all over again if you are mixing the ink per tattoo as opposed to mixing it by bottle.

Can you get a tattoo with white ink?

AnswerYes. I have a red and black tattoo with white detail. I'm very pale, and the tattoo is almost 10 years old, so the white has faded and you can barely see it anymore, which doesn't make a difference. For anyone darker than me, it should show up better.Here is an image of white ink on dark skin: http://news.bme.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/03/black-and-white.jpg. This tattoo looks very clear, but it seems to be brand new.White ink is very subtle on light skin. It probably would not be great as the main, or only, color of a large tattoo. However, if you're looking for something more personal and small, it works. Lindsay Lohan has a white tattoo of the word "breathe" on her wrist. A picture can be found here: http://www.lohangroupie.com/files/lindsay-lohan-breathe-feb21.jpg
