Hi there, maybe someone knows about this??
I tattooed myself on the upper thigh (very thin skin). the motive consists just of outlines, no shading. The whole tattoo is far too light, it’s grey instead of black But no grey wash was used just black ink and looks like I didn’t go deep enough, that’s what at least everybody is telling me that I show the tattoo. I also asked tattoo artists about the fade lines because it’s a repeatedly occurring problem when I tattoo myself but they also told me that I have to go deeper. Buuuuut now here is the problem why I write this post: at the same time you can see a very light blue shadow around the whole tattoo approximately 1 cm thick. It’s very light so it’s hard to make a photo of it. So it seems like a faint blowout but it’s around the whole tattoo very even in a way. Recently I talked with someone about it and that person told me that i indeed tattooed to shallow (therefor it’s grey instead of black) but it really is a blowout at the same time due to my lymphatic system. That person (no tattoo artist but working with tattooartists) told me that in some people (mostly female) this can occur. To me it only happened on this tattoo and nowhere else (I have quit a lot of tattoos all around the body but this is the first on the upper thigh close to the groin)
Does someone has experience or knowledge with this topic of lymphatic system ink spread?
Would be amazing to get some infos and exchange of experience with you
)))
lots of greetings Vic
