But will the UK ban coloured ink too? Here’s all we know so far…The reason for the ban comes down to the chemicals found in the coloured ink used for tattoos.
REACH have made an effort to clarify that ‘the aim is not to ban tattooing but to make the colours used in tattoos and permanent make-up safer’. The UK Health and Safety Executive is encouraging tattoo manufacturers and artists to submit information about tattooing safety, and the ingredients found in tattoo ink.
Heavy metals used for colours include mercury, lead, nickel, zinc, aluminium, titanium, copper, iron, and barium.Typical carriers are ethyl alcohol or distilled water.When components of improperly tested tattoo ink affect the body, you could suffer from ink poisoning.explain that poisoning from tattoo ink is often mistaken for an infection, with symptoms like pain, swelling or a rash.
