Professionally Trained Tattooer
Tattooing is a sacred art form that is passed down from a long lineage of artists to their apprentices. “Scratchers”, who practice tattooing at home in their kitchens, respect neither the art, nor the people whose bodies are subject to their unsupervised practicing.
Be on high alert for scratchers in the area. Just because they work at a tattoo shop, it doesn’t mean they are professionally trained to industry or artistic standards. Ask about professional apprenticeships, blood-borne pathogen training, and, most importantly, check the work! Look for bold, clean lines, consistent saturation, original content and overall artistry.
