The practice of applying tattoos has been present in many cultures throughout many centuries. As you are probably aware, a tattoo is a micro-pigment implantation in the skin that forms an image, phrase or symbol. The ink is injected into the outermost layers of skin, where it stays and shows through the skin, displaying the image. And the most common, safe and easy method of injecting these pigments is through the use of an electronic tattoo gun.
A modern tattoo gun features a needle that moves up and down very rapidly, piercing the skin thousands of times and leaving small bits of ink beneath the outer layers. A well-practiced tattoo artist can create very striking, intricate patterns. On the other hand, a relatively unskilled artist has a lot more potential to make mistakes and leave you with a regrettably sloppy tattoo. Usually, it's better to shell out the extra money for an experienced artist than it is to look for a discount.
There are multiple models of tattoo guns on the market today, most of which use a thin, extremely sharp needle. Some versions use multiple needles at the same time in order to cover more surface area at a time, but these lack the more precise touch of single-needle tattoo guns. For sanitation reasons, the needle (or needles) of a tattoo gun should be changed, or at least very thoroughly sanitized, after each application. Failure to follow proper health guidelines can greatly increase the risk of infection that comes with getting tattoos.
You've probably seen in many TV shows and movies what are known as "jailhouse tattoos". These are tattoos applied by inmates within prisons using homemade equipment. The tattoo guns used are often made of parts from other items or devices, such as pens. Since there are no health and safety guidelines with amateur prison tattoos, they will almost certainly lead to some form of infection. Also, sloppy, imprecise equipment used to apply the tattoo can cause much more damage to the skin than more specialized equipment would. The needle is often improperly sized and digs deeper in the skin, resulting in painful tears and sloppy designs. Staying out of jail is ideal. But if you end up there for whatever reason, it'd be in your best interest to stay well away from prison tattoos.
When getting a tattoo, choosing the right color is an important choice. Most tattoo primarily use black and/or white, but there are a multitude of color options available. A good tattoo features complimentary colors that do not clash, and of course, an interesting, well-crafted design. Some designs follow the curves and shape of the body and these have the potential to look more interesting than other tattoos. However, peoples' weight tends to change as they age, so this can have the effect of deforming the tattoo.
There are definite risks that come with every tattoo. It could become infected, leading to discomfort and potentially deforming the tattoo, and there's the risk that you may simply grow tired of or regret the tattoo years down the line. As with any decision with permanent consequences, it should not be delved into with serious thought.
