Is carbon paper for the transfer of a tattoo stencil safe? Of what does the ink on the carbon paper consist of? Because it will inevitably go in as you prick your skin, so I want to know

I am preparing to do a diy tattoo on myself.
>>
.....it's CARBON

if you're this stupid, should you really be sticking yourself with needles?

just gtfo again

>>1203555
not sure it is carbon used in carbon paper
but carbon is pretty save, even edible

>>1203558
>not sure it is carbon used in carbon paper

aha

do tattoo artists use the same? I bought mine from a bookstore.

>based graphite

but is it safe to trust wikipedia on such matters?
>>
also, I guess /tattoo/ thread
>>
>>1203565
You shouldn't trust it, but it is a good entry point. You can follow the citations and see if they are reliable.
But I think it is common knowledge, e.g. consider all those silly kids chewing on their pencils (not good for teeth though)

I just wonder about the carbon paper, since it's not really carbon, according to>>1203563

I wonder of tattoists use another kind, or if regular carbon paper that you get at a bookstore or office supplies store is just the same.
>>
if the stencil isn't getting applied on my skin, does that mean I am using less ink than needed? I am using rice paper and grease-free paper/baker paper and trying to mad science my way around them. The ink from the pen doesn't seem to stay on the grease-free paper.

>>1204651
what inks are non0-toxic for stencil use?
>>
>>1204655
>http://captainpackrat.com/furry/toxicity.htm
>>
>>1204667
I don't think those are for stencil use.
>>
Is Sharpie/Crayola safe to use for a stencil?
>>
>>1205115
Sure...the cool thing to know is that lacquer thinner cleans up sharpie ink, and varsol cleans up crayon...
So, knowing what it takes to clean these two up, and the solvents involved...how safe do YOU feel about using them?
>not using them is the right answer...
>>
>>1205135
the label on the crayolas says you don't even need soap to wipe them off...and they're targeted at children
don't you have summer school or summer camp or something to attend?
>>
I couldn't get the stencil to stay, but stick and poke almost allows you to go freehand. But the graphite ink I tried to make was probably shit, it took me 7 times and something like 6 hours to get the result others get in one go-around (which is, the faint image of what you want to get tattooed).
