    I have heard of people using india ink... but I have also heard it spreads and fades horribly. I have heard the guys in prison use pen ink mixed with cigarette ashes. But that's just rumor. I'm glad you're not getting a home made tattoo. They are always horrible.

    Its a very bad idea to use any improper ink. I heard someone use pen ink and had to go to the doctor after.

    This is about Prison Tattoos:

    It talks about what they use and other info.
