Biotattoo

Tattoo the allegedly after max. 5 years should disappear by itself ... very questionable and according to many experts (including dermatologists) is impossible, it is therefore more likely to assume that these types of tattoos are pale, but never disappear completely. What time left on left is thus a very blurred and therefore ugly tattoo. Our recommendation: rather a normal tattoo, otherwise there's glue instead tattoos!

Body Suite

Whole-body tattoo, at the head, hands and feet are omitted, however. Originated from Japan and is also known as Irezumi. It is often the Yazuka (Japanese mafia) compound brought in, but has nothing to do with originally. Irezumi is created in protest against certain dress code!

Deposit

It happens that, while accounting for a tattoo appointment for customers who do not appear but then. That is why almost every tattoo artist requires a down payment. Since he mostly a tattoo stencil or even a whole design for a customer will be yes, this is perfectly understandable and justified.

Disinfectant

Laser Distance

Method to get rid of an unwanted tattoo to be. Sounds simple, but is not it! The treatment of pain lasts a long time and costs a lot. For the removal of a professional tattoo, it takes about 8-12 sessions of 5-60 minutes. Certain colors can not remove it and it can lead to scarring.

Soldering

The tattoo soldered needles to the needle bar. So a group of needles or Magnum called Flat. To jump of contours are less needles (meistems 3) used as a dye to the land or shading.

If the indigenous people of New Zealand and known for their traditional tattoos, often on the face are. The facial tattoo is called moko, and was a symbol of marital status and position within the tribe. Maori tattoos are black pierced and every tattoo has therefore a traditional story and meaning. A well-known institution of a Maori Tattoos "is Robbie Williams, a fact that the Maoris, however, not pleased, because for them a far more means than just body art tattoo and think they are, he" had stolen a motive.

Tattooing needles are needles are stainless steel, each tattoo replaced after the operation (or at least neutered!)

Needle Bar

Is the steel rod what the tattoo needles are soldered. It is located on the tip of the tattoo machine and, after each tattoo process and must be sterilized

O

Oldschool

Tattoos in the style of the 20th Century ... ok, ok, these are many, however, the mean from the period 1920-1960. Herzerln thinking of names, Pin-Up Girls, the swallow with little note, etc. The contours or outlines are famous in the clear engraved black and other colors are very strong (lots of red, green and blue).

Originality

As a tattoo holding a life, try not to select Tattoo 8.15, but one with a certain originality. This is not to say that a super-fancy design should take, is only because there will be original is in any case on! With a small adaptation of an existing motif you have already a personal tattoo.

Outlines

The contours or outlines of the tattoos are usually first razor before it goes to the coloring.

P

Pain

A difficult subject, because everyone feels different! But generally release one can say that tattooing is not logically be pain free. There are definitely parts of the body that are sensitive (eg, ankles, feet) because the thick skin to the bone rests there. The tattooing itself feels really stand out as not, but more like a scratchy rub - my personal feeling, at least! After the tattooed body feels like a bit (not too bad) Schuerfwunde a. However, it is definitely worth!

Price

The price of a tattoo depends on many factors. The size, but the time required to apply for a tattoo artist before all has to determine how much you ultimately pay for his tattoo. There are of course not all tattoo studios cost the same, but you should choose the better from the tattoo artists can not lead with price. Is more important for the Tätowierstil take

R

Shave

Before tattooing, the affected area shaved to a "free" work surface to give the tattoo artist and to avoid infections. It could possibly in tattooing a hair with the color of the skin are brought together. It can thus also result in inflammations.

Legal

When tattooing is a surgical procedure in the human body. The legal situation for tattoos so far is clearly not well understood. Tattooing is but legally injury is one that will exempt from punishment is only when the to tattooing person consents. Complying, only those who all risk has been elucidated over and adequate discernment have (hence not under the influence of alcohol or drugs to the tattoo parlor!)

Risks

The disregard of the hygienic requirements, various viral diseases (eg AIDS, herpes simplex and hepatitis) are transferred. To the reaction is always the risk of an allergic to the colors, although the very rare occurrence only. Far greater is the risk of scarring and Blowouts if the tattoo artists are skilled not controlled, or if you scratch the tattoo during the healing time is not on the refrain! But if you have a good tattoo parlor for a decision, the risks are only slightly!

S

Stencil

Tattoo stencil based on the selected subject made by the by the subject in mirror special paper records. Then place the tattoo where to get the ointment rubbed with grease and pressed on the template. This drawing is transferred to the skin. In principle, therefore, much like the chewing gum pictures:)

Scab

Often formed during the tattoo heals, is normal and should be allowed to rest in! Because you can not scrape off only lead to infections and scarring, but also damage the tattoo (scrape off the paint particles can be removed). under a plastic wrap-days Hide (scab Neudeutsch To Grind) can avoid the fresh tattoo in the first 4-5. It should ensure that you the tattoo every day with clean water and clean hands washes away several times and with a panthenol ointment such as Bepanthen (Roche) eincremt before the film again hangs up. The healing process brings about the cream and the reduced oxygen supply arises in the rarest cases, a scab / Grind. For me at least works the best ever.

Sun

Should the first 6 weeks after the tattoo completely avoided! Even then it is better not to tattoo often exposed to the sun - and if, only well protected with a sunburn cream with high sun protection factor. Pale by sunlight then a permanent tattoo that is! Some colors react to sunlight with a chemical reaction and thus ending one type of allergy (but rare).

Sting

When a tattoo is about 1.5 millimeters deep engraved 0.5. If stung deeply, can cause blowouts (see blowout)

T

Tattoo

Hardly needs comment, but was the first time in 1891, Samuel O'Reilly patented. A tattoo is a marking made by inserting indelible ink into the dermis layer of the skin to change the pigment for decorative or other reasons. The driving principle is based on an electromagnet and a spring and the engine makes 800 (shader) and 3500 (liner) stitches per minute. Shader inks, the tattoo machine for shading and mentioned. Liner is a faster machine to draw a line. Many tattoo artists are working with machines that lines and shadow sting can be both.
