This title is severely misleading, the article discusses pigments in tattoo ink, not tattoo ink in general. I am covered in tattoos, none of my tattoos have color.

"but researchers suggest dirty needles aren’t the only risk of the age-old practice"

I have also never seen an artist use a dirty needle, and would never let a dirty needle hit my skin with ink.
