Scientific Curiosity

I was curious about tattoos. How they are able to stay on your skin permanently unless you undergo so major surgery to remove it? Tattoos were always interesting to me and so would like i would just use a regular ink from a pen but if you rubbed up against something it would smear and eventually fade off or away. What specials things do they have in tattoo ink that makes it permanent? What is it that tattoo ink has that regular pen ink is lacking? Does the tattoo stay on top of your skin, does it go under skin, or does it just blend in with your skin? What are the risks that you take when you get a tattoo?

  1. Maybe do some research on the kind of ink they use? Maybe pen ink differs from Tattoo ink so that's why it stays on? Maybe it doesn't even need to be under the skin... do some research and see!
