Deq Tattoos halal or haram?

Hi everyone I’m Kurdish and I’ve been looking into deq tattoos for a while to see if they are actually halal and not haram in islam and was wondering if anyone could provide some knowledge. They aren’t done with ink or anything but with a needle where they use your blood almost and some say as it’s not done with any ink or anything and through the blood that it’s halal as wudu is still done? Could someone help, I don’t know the full process and some do it with ink but any help is appreciated.

Any tattoo is completely haram. Dont do it. The reason it is haram is because when you wash over it with water when doing Ghusl, the skin under the ink doesn't get washed so your ghusl is not valid. Please tell me you didn't get it. So many people have tattoos of Allah's name and it is really bad

Hi I understand and I haven’t done it, but deq isn’t a tattoo, it’s done using your blood and breast milk and it’s done under your skin not on the top layer. This is why I asked if it’s haram as I have asked people who do it and Turkish imams and they have said it is to be halal as it’s not done via ink or on the top of the skin.its not actually a tattoo as it’s not the same ingredients or application method yet it is permanent

salaam, my great granny had those tattoos on her face, (she was an iraqi kurd), she was quite religious (buried near the tomb of Ali, so...)
i'd say they are halal, but check with your imam
