New Ink

theskndoc2010 · #1 10-14-2010, 01:52 AM

I need to buy some new colors and i was thinking of getting the Waverly sample set..Are they as good as everyone says they are? I currently use Eternal and have been using them for years and really like the way they go in and the way they heal. I tattoo a fair amount of dark skinned people and want to get a red that will pop in their skin..To tell you the truth I realy dont care for the red that Eternal puts out. Does anyone have any suggestions as far as that goes? I also have read that Joe Capobianco has put out s line of colors called Easy Glo that they sell at pulse. Has anyone tried them and if so how do they go into the skin? Thanks

joe has absolutely nothing to do with stable ink!!! joe's brand of ink is called easy glow, its the same ink as electric, only different shades. and electric ink is f@#king awesome, i use it everyday.

where do they sell the electric at? does it go in smooth? is it a watery color or a thicker one. Also my bad saying it was stable ink, it was the middle of the night and i had just got back from the car auction.

electric ink is thinn, but goes in like butter, and heals quick, i just did a chest panel and it healed in three days.

i swear by electric everyday too. never dries in the cap and is the only ink in the world approved by a food and drug administration

Ive been using Waverly for about 6 months now.. Its great. Very thick but I hit my washcup quick and it goes in great. Im thinking about trying the Fusion only cuz they have some new wave bright ass colors too. Heard excellent things about it.

i think it had something to do with selling products oversees, its kinda like FDA.

they're made by paulo fernando, manufactured in and FDA approved in brazil. they also meet post 2009 EU standards.

i love their palette of colors... but the examples of work on their page make the colors seem weak.

are they bold in the skin? any examples?
