When you let a unlicensed tattoo artist tattoo you, you have a greater chance of a botched tattoo, and of becoming infected from improperly handled tattooing equipment

How long after getting a tattoo should you keep it covered?

Every tattoo artist tells you something different... but I kept it wrapped for the first 5 hours.... let it air out.... then for the next 5 nights... wrap it in plastic wrap & ointment... make sure your new tattoo doesnt dry out.


How should a tattoo artist charge for a tattoo apprentice?

If your studio is big enough you could let them use a space and charge them a certain amount to rent that space. So when they start getting work, you would take a cut from that for booth rental/materials (needles/gloves/ink etc)


How do you obtain a tattoo license in Arizona?

There is no such thing. It is part of the entertainment industry. AZ state law may require a business license, but there is no such thing as a tattoo artist license. You can't get certified because there is no schools or classes. Getting certified by the National Safety Council for Bloodborne Pathogens & Cross Contamination is not required, but I would not let someone tattoo me who wasn't certified. This is a health issue. (roll top trash cans, no gloves, reused needles, non-bagged cords, bottles, home made machines etc. are bad signs). Blake Laramie Stigmata Tattoo Since 1995


What if scabbing comes off and tattoo looks like it is disappearing?

It may be because the color is coming out of the tattoo. if it bleeded really bad then this will more than likely happen. When your tattoo is scabing do not pull it off or scratch it. Let it fall off its self.


How long until you can shower with a new tattoo?

You can shower..you just want to be pretty quick..and not let the tattoo get saturated. No swimming or hot tubs etc for 2 weeks. After your shower, allow tattoo to air dry for 10-15 min, and re apply A&D ointment--THIN LAYERS!!!
