    do you want an infection? that is the fastest way to get an infection go by putting ink in an open wound. it don't matter if you have clean it out 5 times. That area still become infection by the ink. let the wound heal in time before you put a tattoo to cover up the cut.

    For the person calling you stupid you should ask if they've ever heard of a contraction. Your is incorrect here. It would be you're in this instance. As far as stupid goes I think asking about it is sign that you choose to learn. Any foreign object in a wound will likely as not cause infection. However through the ages mankind has used many types of inks to color scars on bodies. I think you should reconsider the idea. Body ink you think is acceptable now may well interfere with your social life later. Good luck whatever you choose

    Hahahaha!! Whoever told you this needs to crawl into a hole and never come out. I'm not going to say that it DOESN'T cause cancer, but really, what these days doesn't? EVERYTHING causes cancer apparently. Really, cancer is caused by a minimum of 6 genetic mutations of a single cell. So, theoretically, if you bash your head against a wall long enough, you'll develop cancer because of the damage you've done to your cells. The only thing I will tell you about red in any form is that because the molecule for the colour red is so large, it fades quicker than most other colours. (Think of those people who dye their hair red and how quickly it washes out.) But, when it comes to tattoos, getting a touch-up if you do see any fading will fix that problem poste haste.

    I would not put ink inside a cut... there is no ink of any kind that you can buy at Wal-Mart or retail store I am sure... If you want a tattoo just save the money and get one you will like... and does not involve you getting gain green or get ink or blood poisoning...

    my dad did something like that when he was younger he really wanted a tattoo and cut himself with a blade until it bled and poured ink into the wound! They look seriously crap now they look like a big blob of ink on his skin its really bad! he regrets doing it now. Don't be stupid if you want a tattoo get it done properly from a tattoo studio! Your wound will get infected and if you don't use right inks you can die of blood poisoning!! It's not worth it! get it done properly!

    first,use no ink that you get from walmart or any store.tattoo ink is actually a pigment,and must be ordered from dealers by profesional artists.second,you must wait till the wound is completely healed before tattooing over it,or it could really become seriously infected.some scar tissue can not be tattooed over.talk to your tattoo artist to get his/her input before you decide.

    I don't think it's a good idea, but rather you make a bad situation worse...you'd want to use India Ink, which you can buy at any arts & crafts store.

    Why else would you ask unless you want to "make" a tattoo? Come on, no one's that interested in something that they don't even care about. If you want a tattoo, wait till you're eighteen and then go to a parlor.

    Let it heal first so you won't have to worry. Use Aloe Vera to heal it quicker.
