TATOOS

TATOOS

Should I be concerned about whether tattoos are safe to be injected/drawn on/pierced/through my skin?'

Is this a surgery"?

Should tattoo "vendors" be certified?  By whom?

How/where/who makes the "dye"/"ink"?

What's in them/ink? Where are they made?

    kinda weird to me someone who joined 10 years ago this is first post...

     

    But, if legit, please ensure your TATTOO Artist has a dictionary open and knows how to look up spellings if there are any words in your choice before they fire up the gun, please!

    Done with this "new" and "improved"... kinda like dotard improved America...

    True…

    unless their next post is to advertise their business, and this was the teaser.

    stay tuned.

     @SereneSeagull  gave excellent advice. Research is always the best.

     

     I wanted to get a tattoo of a peace dove in my hippie days. Never did. I think by now, on me, that peace dove would look like a pterodactyl. 😊

    Your doctor would be the ideal person to ask, as they are familiar with the health aspect of this and can give you guidelines on what to look for as far as a reputable one.
