Selecting a tattoo artist is just as important as selecting a tattoo. Every artist has a unique style, background, and training. Customers can look through the artist’s portfolio to review his/her prior work. Past work can also demonstrate an artist’s ability to shade and blend colors, which is important in realistic and portrait tattoos. Customers should also inspect the tattoo artist’s studio to ensure that all hygiene-related regulations are followed. Tattoo artists must use a fresh needle for each client. In addition, they must wear gloves during the entire procedure and use an autoclave to sterilize all non-disposable equipment. Customers can also ask to see a license or hygiene certificate, if applicable in their state.

Tattoo artists and dermatologists recommend a hygiene routine to keep newly tattooed skin clean and moisturized. Immediately after finishing the tattoo, the artist will cover the skin with petroleum jelly and wrap the area in a bandage, which can be removed after 24 hours. The tattoo can then be gently cleaned with mild, antibacterial soap and treated with a topical antibiotic cream. This ointment should be reapplied several times a day. While the tattoo may flake or itch as it heals, individuals should not scratch the skin and should avoid swimming or otherwise immersing the tattoo in water for at least two weeks. Without proper aftercare, a new tattoo may become inflamed, infected, or scarred. |
