Basic tattoo techniques

Nowadays tattoo is being accepted by more and more people around the world. It looks quite easy to draw tattoo on the skin. However, it may be harmful if you don’t have the proper tools or good tattoo techniques. You need to practice on artificial skins before you can control the tattoo gun and tattoo needles well.

One of the most difficult parts of tattooing is to set the tattoo needle to its proper depth, which means the needle should only inject into the upmost layer of the skin and can not go any deeper than the second layer since it may cause a failure of the tattoo work or can be even dangerous to the body. You should also have the knowledge of different thickness of the skins on different parts of the body. Setting the needle to its suitable depth is also a technique, which you need to know how to hook up the needle to the tattoo gun and how the gap inside the tattoo machine functions. You also need to know the difference between shader needles and liner needles, and between their working conditions.

Practice makes perfects. It is true to tattoo apprentice as well. Use artificial tattoo practice skins, fruits or pig skins to practice before you do tattoo on a body. Even you are a skilled tattoo artist, you should also practice whenever you purchased new tattoo machines of tattoo guns, in order to get familiar with these tattoo equipments. Also practice on fake skins to examine your newly mixed tattoo inks. And you should be aware that it is not allowed to make tattoo for others without a tattoo artist’s license in some countries.
