  • Thanks a lot for this discussion. I also have the same type of question. I really need this answer.

  • If you are planning to run a tattoo shop, it is important to know not only how to use the tattoo equipment, but also how to clean them after tattoo doing. The best tool for cleaning your tattoo machines is an autoclave. You also need to prepare water, antibacterial soap, rubbing alcohol, q-tips, gloves, sterilized bags and tissues.

  • Anything that comes into contact with bodily fluids (blood, plasma, mucus, semen, etc.) that cannot be sterilized must be disposed of. But you can’t throw bio-hazard materials into a regular trash can, because then it could harm someone it comes in contact with at the waste management facility, or end up in the water supply or on a beach…[Read more]

  • Sometimes when you get a tattoo, scarring can occur. The scarring can be caused by anything ranging from improper aftercare to sensitive skin.
