I just watched a video segment on tattoo inks that was pretty impressive and definitely worth sharing. A New Jersey based company called Freedom2 is developing a line of tattoo inks called Infinitink that are permanent but still can be removed much easier than traditional tattoo inks in the event that the consumer no longer wants the tattoo.

If you think about it this is a pretty big leap in the body art industry. We all know that tattoos are intended to be permanent. We also know of the millions who wish they could change or remove their tattoos. Infinitink represents tattoo inks with a properties that allow the type of flexiblility that makes is less risky to get a tattoo.

Additionally the report says that the company is basing its inks more on materials that are far less toxic and mush safer than traditional tattoo inks. As we have documented in the past, there are no regulations on tattoo inks and some tattoo artists are even making their own ink mixtures. When you consider how deeply tattoo ink is placed under the skin then you know that what Freedom2 is working on with Infinitink is a great idea.

The challenge will of course be getting these inks into the mainstream as quickly as possible. Perhaps Freedom2 will consider allowing consumers to purchase their own inks for their tattoos. I know I wold definitely consider it. Even if the inks were a bit more expensive it would be worth it if you take into consideration the high cost of some tattoo removal methods.

Freedom2 and Infinitink may even boost the credibility and use of products like Wrecking Balm which is one of the few tattoo removal creams on the market whose formulas are keeping stride with the rapidly changing variety of tattoo inks out there.

We will have to keep our ears to the tracks to see how soon Freedom2 and their Infinitink line will be available to the public. There are about 20 shops around the country who use the product. Check out www.infinitink.com under the consumer link for more info.
