First of all, the most emphasized point is that the pads on the workbench of the tattoo artist, as well as the needles and color cups used in the tattoo, are all disposable. That is, the tools you use when you are pierced can only be used by this person, and the next person will have to replace them with new ones when they are pierced.


The function of the strap on the handle of the tattoo machine is to prevent slippage during use, and the other is to avoid staining or other substances, and then contact with the wound to cause infection.


The tattoo artist must wear hygienic medical gloves throughout the work process. Even during a break, if you touch other unsterilized items while wearing gloves, you need to replace them with new gloves.


Skin preparation knife, commonly known as "disposable hair removal knife". Logically speaking, skin preparation (hair removal) is required before tattooing. Because in the process of fogging, when the frequency is too fast and the area is large, it is easy to break the hairs and hit the skin. When the hair remains under the skin, it will become inflamed after the tattoo.


The needle tip and handle of the tattoo machine need to undergo strict high temperature and high pressure sterilization after each use. Alcohol is also indispensable, and it is needed for the overall environment and tool disinfection. Also, the green soap and blue soap bottles need to be wrapped in plastic wrap.
