ya know, like lindsay lohan's tattoo on her wrist that says "breathe". i'd LOVE one but i heard they are hard to do and tattoo artists usually won't do them because they can't see what they're doing. i want one!

This is a tricky question. I've been in the tattoo industry for years. White tattoos on large areas can resemble brands. Also make sure the shop/artist is reputable. My exhusband has a large konji on one of his legs done in white ink. I've always liked it. However if the artist is inexperienced with working with white ink, over working the skin causing excessive bleeding can actually change the color of the ink. It can cause it to look yellow or greyish after it's healed.

It will probably work fine. Talk to a reputable tattoo artist in your area for a consult.
The key to any tattoo - ESP. a white tattoo - is to protect it from the sun with every precaution you can take. You might considering using a sunscreen over the area everyday if it's a place that is exposed regularly. All tattoo's will fade over time, but you can certainly prolong its life.

If that is what you want then I would get it in the black light ink. Any tattoo artist that works with black light ink should works under a black light and the ink can be seen.
Good luck with your tattoo

well if u want one u should go and ask the tatto artist if it is really hard to do and all that jazz and if u still want to go through with it then do it. I personaly think that if u want something like this really bad then u should go ahead and get it

go find a good tattoo artist and they shouldnt have a problem with it.....it will cost you more, but it will be worth it if you want it badly enough

I've heard they kind of go yellow after a couple years, but I think they look really cool though.
