Tattoos = Satan?

2012-04-20T10:34:00.000-04:00

First of all I'm not suggesting that the following individual (in the photo) is an example of the healthy use of body adornment of any sort. However, I am sure this individual feels they have a very good reason for presenting themselves the way they have chosen. It is not my place to judge anyone. I just can't wrap my mind around the so called "Christian" claim that her tattoos and piercings

Question: "Does it hurt?"

2012-04-13T15:43:00.000-04:00

Everyone wants to know - does it hurt? Of course it hurts a little to get a tattoo. But most people find tattooing to be more irritating than painful - its just not that bad. Some people hurt more than others, but about 90% of our clients don’t think it is such a big deal. Body piercing feels like a hard pinch. Before you can say ouch - its over. Neither tattooing nor piercing hurts afterward.

Question: "What about tipping?"

2012-01-05T00:00:00.000-05:00

Traditionally Tattooists like hairdressers are tipped at 15-20%. Tips are an important way of expressing extra appreciation for a job well done. Artists don’t make as much money as the price of the tattoo suggests. A tip usually means a lot to the artist. Even a small one of $5 will be appreciated. The more generous you are the more the artist will remember you with fondness and will be happy

Question: "Can I bring a friend with me for support?"

2011-12-29T00:00:00.000-05:00

It depends on the studios. Some places don't mind a few friends and others allow none. Be sure to ask before you make an appointment. We have found that it is best if you only have one person with you. When things are loud and crowded it can distract your artist. Don't be surprised if your friend is offered a seat and expected to stay in it. It is considered VERY rude to bring along infants

Question: "How much does it cost?"

2011-12-22T00:00:00.000-05:00

Tattooing and piercing is not a good place to bargain for a cheaper price or to play big wheel. Many tattooists are not worth seeing at all and charge very low prices. The really good ones can charge just about anything. We have found that the really good tattoo artists are charging about $100 per hour. This means that a small tattoo will cost around $50 to $70. Professionals also often have

Question: "How do I prepare for my appointment?"

2011-12-15T00:00:00.000-05:00

Wear loose comfortable clothing. Don’t wear your best outfit, despite our best efforts to protect your clothing tattoo ink can splatter in an uncontrollable way and does not wash out of clothing. Be clean. No one wants to work on skin that has seen 8 hours of grime and dirt or have muddy boots tracking into their work area. Make sure you eat before your appointment, a light meal and hour

Question: "How safe is getting a tattoo?"

2011-12-08T00:00:00.000-05:00

A professional studio will use full hospital sterilization and disposable items for your safety. There are virtually no health problems related to professional tattooing. There has never been a single reported case of tattoo related HIV transmission. Reports of hepatitis are rare and equal to the numbers you would expect from any other segment of the population - there is no specific connection

Tattoo Healing Problems

2011-12-03T00:00:00.000-05:00

By Master Tattoo Artist Rev. Kita Kazoo Signs of Normal Healing At first the tattoo looks shiny, swollen and the colors are extra bright. Within 24 hours the scab forms, this should be very thin, looks like the tattoo and with proper care is slightly flexible. After about 4-5 days the tattoo will go through a period of peeling. This looks similar to a sunburn peeling. The scab that peels off

Question: "I'm interested in getting a tattoo, where do I start?"

2011-12-01T00:00:00.000-05:00

The two best things to do are these: get referrals and visit the shops in your area. Calling on the phone is usually a waste of time because you can’t see the shop or the art that the artists have done. No one can quote you an accurate price on a tattoo without first seeing it. Do not base your shopping on price. There are no bargain tattoos or piercings - just good ones and bad ones. There is

PRION DISEASE FROM TATTOOING?

Can you get Mad Cow Disease or Chronic Wasting Disease from a tattoo? by Rev. Dr. Gregory Lowrey (2008) [Let’s just save some time and say NO! This is just another attempt at fear mongering in an attempt to one-up the (ignorant) competition. But for the actual scientific research and evidence that there is no danger – read on. My introduction to the horrible threat of PRIONS in tattooing: I
