I can't figure out how to post a new topic so I guess i'll ask my question here! Every since I was little I have wanted pink and gray wings tatooed on my back. The problem is that i'm allergic to metal and I was told that the tattoo ink has metal in it. Suposedly that was what stopped my mom from getting tattoos. I have noticed though that the stainless steel that I have in my ears don't bother them. Anyways my question is, is there a type of ink that doesn't contain any metal? If not, does the ink used for ink rubbings contain any metal, and would an ink rubbing turn out as good as a tattoo?
