Yin yang tattoo on darker skin?
Within this month, I would like to get a yin-yang tattoo on my ankle. I've looked at pictures and stuff but none of the pictures have it on black skin. I like the concept of black and white and so I wouldn't want to get another color, but I'm not for this "white ink" thing? So would it look okay if I just left the white part my skin? And shade the black or should I start looking for something else.
If it changes anything my skin tone is kind of like Kerry Washington?

What white ink thing? I never understood that. White ink is white ink. It's used to highlight.
Anyways, white ink on black skin doesn't actually work. Very few colors do.
Possibly do the black area, and then on the white, do a grey shade. Ask the artist.

no, it will look amazing!! one of my guy friends has a massive yin-yang tattoo across his back :) he is very dark skinned and he didn't get white ink!! and you can tell the black ink from his skin? he is more like Don Cheadle? the guy from hotel Rwanda :)

just get it without black ink. it'll still look good. i have light skin, but i think black ink tattoos exclusively looks good on dark skin.
