What are some health issues if you do your own tattoo?

So I’m doing a paper on doing your own tattoo is there a name for that? But anyways I wanna no some bad things about it and how long it would last or so something . Will there be medical issues?

Answer #1

You can call it a “home done” tattoo.

Uhm, if youre using a dirty needle you can get infections associated with that, there are airbourne infections you could get if youre doing it in a dirty enviornment, if you dont properly care for it after it could get infected.

Answer #2

They are generally just called home made tattoos. Some risks that come along with home made tattoos are: infections, allergic reactions, and poisoning from the materials used.

Not to mention they always turn out extremely bad. How long they last depends on how they were done and what was used for ink…some fade in as little as a few months…some people have their ugly home made tats forever.

Answer #3

they don’t always turn out extremely bad both my dad and brother got home made tattoos lol my dads really hasn’t faded but my brothers has, i believe the one on his hand isn’t even there and the one on his arm is barely there anymore.
