What does being “REACH-compliant” Mean?
Being “REACH-compliant” means the pigment and all ingredients contained in tattoo ink satisfy the new EU regulations on tattoo inks that were placed into effect in January 2022.
To find REACH-compliant tattoo inks, look for our REACH Gold Label series at www.quantumtattooink.eu.
Does being REACH-compliant affect the tattoo ink colors?
While there may be slight variances in the new formulation of REACH-approved colors, the resulting color should be close if not exactly the same.
For example, we were able to faithfully recreate several of our best selling colors to comply with the new REACH regulations
You may check the SDS for each tattoo ink for more details on the ingredients.
What is the difference between fine line tattoos and micro tattoos?
The needle and the pigment used for both types of tattoos are similar.
The lines used in both types of tattoos are very small and detailed.
However, fine line tattoos can be of any size, while micro tattoos have very detailed artwork confined in tiny areas.
Do you have any metallic tattoo inks? How can I achieve the look of a metallic tattoo?
There are currently no metallic tattoo inks on the market from Quantum Tattoo Ink or any other reputable manufacturer. Instead, highly-skilled tattoo artists create a metal-like appearance by expertly combining standard color tattoo inks.
