Tattoo Ink – Blak, Premium Black Tattoo Ink, Perfect for Lining and Shading, Smooth, Consistent Pigment, Vegan Friendly Tattoo Color, Organic Ink, Crafted in The USA, 2 oz

I was using Kuro Sumi for years, along with Dynamic and a few others and I really love the looks of this ink. It's very dark, thin, and seems to just be a better quality.

After using this product for a bit now, it's my go to black ink especially for shading. It's also pretty solid for lining as well, though recently I picked up their ULTRA Blak for my lining. The ink itself doesn't have an overly thick consistency nor too watery.

I came across Allegory while searching for the darkest of dark blacks. I had never had an issue using blacks in my past, however I ran into a client that was a major bleeder. I ran two sessions on his back piece using my usual black, when we finished and he healed up it was saturated but seemed to be a dark black outline with a charcoal fill (very subtle difference but a difference indeed) After some homework I decided I wanted to try Allegory Blak. It was a complete night and day difference. I ran one session, and was forced to reline the tattoo in allegory also as it's significantly darker. His tattoo once healed could be mistaken for black permanent marker. it's darker than anything i've used in my 15 years of tattooing, and i'm not shy to some heavy hitting brands... I've used intenze... eternal... dynamic... starbrite... and several others. I've taken a liking to Allegory blak so much that I'm going to be trying all of their new products, including the new Ultra Blak... I can't imagine it getting much darker than this, but I can't wait to be proven wrong.

Purchased a while back and have put it to the test. Hands down one of the best outlining inks so far. Nice smooth saturation and flow for vibrant one pass lines. Definitely recommend!!!!

super

The best black ink I’ve tried so far! I’m a fairly new artist and was finally ready to start in real skin and really like the quality of this ink. I’ve bought 3 more bottles since purchasing and so far I haven’t been persuaded to purchase anything else. Ships very fast and packaged nicely!

Everything seems to be from the original manufacturer and sealed. Manufacture date says I've received it a month after made so that's pleasant

Did a blind test using 10 different top brands doing 10 little butterflies on the same leg and same area on the same person. 2 years later allegory stayed the darkest. Goes in great, workability is great, and never had one bad reaction to it. I use this stuff everyday.
