All of these often ornate intertwining lines that look like a puzzle like a labyrinth, in fact, symbolize the unpredictability of life, the confusion of life's path. They have no beginning and no end, infinite, like life itself. The knots signify the connection between heaven and earth, soul and body.

Paints and pigments

Tattooing is the process of applying paint under the skin with a special machine with a built-in needle. The quality of the picture depends not only on the skill of the artist and the availability of expensive equipment. An important factor is the properties of the paint itself.

Tattoo ink is a special pigment that, when in contact with the skin, takes on a specific color and preserves the brightness of the design. A large percentage of tattoo inks on the market have a base that allows you to mix different inks and get new shades.

Some tattoo masters do not use popular professional paints, preferring to create their own pigments. As a rule, this happens when the artist puts high demands on the purity and dispersity of the product.

In not so distant times, when chemistry as a science has not yet developed enough, for tattoos were used paints based on vegetable components. Of course, such pigments caused a number of unpleasant consequences, including allergic reactions. In addition, the colors of that time quickly faded.

This is not the case these days. Today's paints are made with precision equipment. The product is thoroughly treated and purified. Most modern paints have components in their composition that help accelerate the healing of injured skin.

Tattoo paints can be divided into price categories. There are affordable, and there are - expensive. The latter are mainly represented by products that have surgical plastic microgranules in their composition. The tattoo stuffed with such ink will keep primordiality of color for many years.

Recently, however, organic-based inks are increasingly being used. Mineral pigment technology keeps the pattern crisp and minimizes the likelihood that the tattoo will "float". Organic inks are typically used for micropigmentation.
