yup , peoples ignorance never ceases to amaze me !



on a side not tho...

given that pre 90's western artists , most trad japanese artists past and some present, and many indian sidewalk artists(to this day) ......they all pretty much contradict what we try to establish today as being "clean" and "sterile" , i think its due to being aware of whats out there from advances in technology and awareness of these diseases passed on via CC,

my question is do you reckon that there was massive breeding and spreading of hiv,hep and all the other nasties until the industry became more "responsabile" ? or more a case of the worlds problems regarding
bbp etc have just increased and we are counter acting via precautions ?

been wondering about that lately

[mark101]

how many documented cases of any transferable diseases have there been attributed to tattooing?

its just cutting down on risk

alleged or fact?

[ink-sink]

not sure lol - just what the owner told me, i kinda knew of the guy as he lived in the same area i did and tattooed out of his kitchen, so i was a bit suprised when i popped in one day and saw that he had a booth there straight away and was tattooing there. he was there a couple weeks during wich time i had him do a tattoo on my stomach and made it a pretty difficult one - he kept asking if he could simplify it and i kept saying no i want it exactly as it is on paper - its a mess needless to say lmao i was told the next time i went in he gave a client septisemia and they found out he wasnt cleaning down properley so they told him to get out

Yikes!
