drawing on skin

[noah313]

I have basically always used sharpies or ball point pens. What are your thoughts on the pens from lucky or those Hellcat color stenciling pens. Just wondering if they actually make a difference. It seems with sharpies and ball points some people they stay on forever and others they almost wipe right off. And how does the ink in the pens actually write on the skin. just curios.

we use ballpoint. we clean it with alcohol be for drawing helps it stay on longer then throw it away open skin or not. the health department tells us that we can't reuse because of the risk of staph infections.

sterile skin markers, hospital ones, use em then throw em

just buy the cartridge for the "fischer space pens" and you cant go wrong. its amazing., they are pretty cheap and can write on any surface. thats what tim hendricks sells to go inside his tattoo pens, or something very close to it. comes in a couple of colors i think blue black red...but i use the red and blue ones sometimes. other times sharpie yellow, to red to black...or just ballpoint. but always throw em away after use...so i get sharpie knockoffs wholesale..

anyway
