Detailed explanation-1: -The tattooing process involves inserting ink pigment of the desired colour into the dermis layer of the skin.

Detailed explanation-2: -The ink is trapped underneath, in the top layer of the dermis, which is where it will stay. This depth allows the tattoo to stay permanent, while also allowing bodily functions like hair growth and sweat to continue. The depth a tattoo needle goes to is very precise and important!

Detailed explanation-3: -Tattoos are permanent images in the skin, delivered by needles injecting ink into the dermis. This tissue is just underneath the outer layer of your skin, called the epidermis. The ink is injected into the dermis by a machine that delivers thousands of tiny pricks per minute via needle.

Detailed explanation-4: -Your skin is made of three main layers: The epidermis, or outermost layer of your skin. The dermis, where the tattoo ink is deposited, consisting of tissue, sweat glands, and hair follicles.

Detailed explanation-5: -So How do Tattoos Become Permanent/ Long-lasting? Tattoos become permanent when they are injected into the dermis. The nature of the dermis and the mechanism of the immune system makes this possible. The quality of the tattoo ink and the expertise of the tattoo artist also affect the life span of a tattoo.
