Finding The Right Tattoo Shop Moncks Corner

By Rebekah Alford


Steps to make finding the right tattoo shop Moncks Corner are few and simple. It is important to choose the artist who will do quality work for you. Even more important is that your artist follows the correct health requirements and the shop is clean. One more thing many people seem to ignore is to never negotiate and try to pay less than what the work is done.

You will be wearing the design on your skin for the rest of your life. Choose an operator that has experience and skill. Put together a list of parlors whose work you like then go for a visit. While there ask to see portfolios' of the artists work. If they claim they do not need one because all their work is great, leave. Any artist that is good will proudly display their work.

How clean is the shop? Look for dust, clutter, debris on the floor, work stations, counters, and even in the chair where you will sit. Getting a tattoo is like having minor surgery done. The area in which it is performed needs to be clean with sterile instruments used.

It is important for you, that there is no contamination from blood or serum. Dangerous diseases such as Hepatitis C and Hepatitis B, and AIDS can be transmitted if proper health protocol is not followed. Following a few safety guidelines will protect you and the artist from cross-contamination.

Here are major things to look for. The artist should remove single-use needles from their pouch in front of you just prior to work beginning. Plastic cups should be new when work begins and the ink should be poured into them before work starts. Also, if they have to be refilled, the top of the ink bottle should never touch the cup.

The artist should always wear gloves and remove them every time they touch something that is non-disposable, such as the ink bottle, or a roll of paper towels. Sterilized single-use needles are the only way to insure no one else's skin or blood is on the needle. It adds to the time it takes to complete work but these procedures help to prevent cross-contamination.

You are going to get what you pay for. A flower tattoo that you bargained for a low cost is going to end up looking like a blob of ink, and not even a nice blob at that. If the pattern or picture you want placed on your skin is more than you can afford, save for it. Also tip the artist when they are finished, just as you would a server in a restaurant. Artist usually only keep a percentage of what is paid for the work or receive an hourly rate and rely on tips for their livelihood.

Do your research when finding the right tattoo shop Moncks Corner. Make sure the shop and work station is clean and your operator uses healthy protocol. Do not negotiate the price and remember to tip. If you follow these tips, you will come out ahead with a lifelong treasure.
