What is tattoo blowout?

Tattoo blowout occurs when ink spreads beyond the intended boundary of a tattoo design, creating a blurred or discolored appearance. This can happen during the tattooing process or as the tattoo heals and the skin settles.

Some common causes of tattoo blowout include: using too much pressure while tattooing, tattooing too deeply into the skin, using low quality ink, and the natural settling of ink as the skin heals.

Blowouts can be difficult to fix and may require touch-ups or additional tattoos to correct the appearance. It is important to choose a skilled and experienced tattoo artist who can minimize the risk of blowout during the tattooing process.
