In the '90's. Before the tattoo gun and the needle were invented, they would cut your skin with a knife and put ashes in the cut. In those days, tattoos were not as beautiful as they are now and they hurt a lot more. Now, they have ink, tattoo needles and tattoo guns. So the tattoos are much prettier and less painful.
Yes. Tattooing will not affect one's status as an organ donor unless the tattoo was done with a used needle, which runs the risk of HIV infection.
that depends. what area of the body are you tattooing? what size needle are you using? go get an apprenticeship and stop hacking people up in your house.
He quit tattooing.
Bloodlining is used when people dont want an outline for their tattoo (like a smoky effect). It also comes in use during white ink tattoos, because a stencil ink would mix with the white ink and corrupt the tattoo.
Most tattoo needles are made of some grade of stainless steel. Surgical stainless steel is very common in tattooing needles.
Tattoo machines arent really super different. Some are built for shading. Others for lining.. It just depends on your needle size, an the quality of your ink. I'm an apprentice in tattooing and have been getting tattooed for years

This is talking about the tip of the needle. Standard is round, i don't know about curved, that's kind of scary, at least I have never heard of them, however there are tapered tips as well, which is probably what your talking about. Mag needles are stacked, if there is no stack they are also called flats. For the artist, tattooing is all about technique, and depending on your technique, you may choose to use a tapered needle, or a standard round.
you can do it a needle or a tattoo
Tattoo artists are responsible for the actual tattooing, as well as consulting about the art and designing.
At least four or five companies provide insurance for tattoo parlors and tattoo artists.
