Well it's India Ink....so no. I answer this question more often than I would like, but to address it again, India Ink is too watery of a consistency to push into the skin and not have it look like it was obviously home done with a prison "gun". Since it of a thin consistency, you have to constantly go over the same lines to make sure that there will be enough built up to where you can see what it is supposed to be, and since it is watery, a lot of it gets pushed out of the skin during the healing. Any of the ink that manages to stay in the skin will look either dull black or even somewhat bluish color wise, which cements the fact that it is a home done tattoo performed with inferior supplies. You can get real tattoo ink off of the internet for fairly cheap and you will have a tattoo that looks somewhat well done as opposed to one that looks like it was done in a bedroom with an RC motor scotch taped to a spoon handle.

Can you use sepia ink instead of Indian ink for tattoo's?

You should not use Indian ink or sepia ink or any other form of drawing ink for a tattoo. Tattoo pigments are made to be used for just that, tattooing. Any reputable tattooist will use QUALITY ink for a tattoo. If you're tattooing at home, take apart your machines, put them in a plastic Ziploc bag and go get an apprenticeship and stop spreading disease.

Is Indian Ink safe for tattooing?

I wouldn't recommend using Indian ink. Tattoo ink is FDA approve for use in the skin. You can buy this from many companies who sell tattoo supplies. I would recommend that you do this. It would be much safer for you. The ink comes in different sized bottles. If you are tattooing just yourself, just purchase the smallest bottle available. But I really would not recommend using either printer ink or Indian ink. You may get a infection or worse. You can look up these companies on the internet.

What ink do you use for a homemade tattoo machine?

Well first off I would never recommend using a homemade tattoo machine. That is so ghetto and unsafe. If you are interested in Tattooing I would recommend a professional Tattoo set.
