    This will probably only stay a little and it's likely what does stay will "smudge" and/or fade a good bit because the upper layers of skin are not as stable for keeping ink in and will eventually heal out.

    Overall... you are dumb. I am assuming that whatever you did was small, so you could've just saved up like $100 and had it done correctly. And if you are like 14 or something... WAIT!!! I did.

    most likely the ink is non toxic and will have no ill effects

    the tattoo will not stay

    just scar

    if you really want to you could make some cool scars but the ink won't take that way

  • Could stay or at least a bit of it, its going to migrate a little an look wierd. Could get infected sure.

    Well now if you go to have it covered up be a professional they're going to charge you more. It's not going to stay because you have no idea what you are doing.

    now that would have stayed as for normal ink... no it will not stay.
