Caring For Tattoos
Before getting a tattoo
Make sure the tattoo parlor is clean and safe. Remember, the artist will be sticking needles into the skin, so be picky about the tattoo parlor you choose.
The artist must use a brand new, sterile needle with every tattoo. Ask the artist to go through the entire procedure with you, including all the tools to use and the specific design. If the artist seems annoyed, go somewhere else. All other tools involved must be sterile. Everything should be personally exposed just for your tattoo, for example, bottles of ink to use disposable. The artist should wear latex gloves and apply Vaseline on the new tattoo with a disposable instrument - not by hand!
Select the layout. Think about it. I love that in one year, five years, ten years? Do not be a name that you may want to hide in the coming years. Children and parents' names are safe.
Talk with the artist about how you want the design to look - with shading and color. Show samples and talk to them about color. Even medium dark skin can get color but remember that no matter what your skin is two layers of your skin's natural color (tan or sun) will cover the finished product. So you can choose bright colors so they heal well on dark skin. Orange may heal to be bright red.
Make sure your skin is in good condition. A few days before the plan to get your tattoo prepare the skin. Drink plenty of water so your skin is well hydrated. Use a good lotion a few times a day. Do not drink alcohol the day before or the day to get your ink, because it causes excessive bleeding when getting your tattoo. Do not sunbathe or take too much sun prior to when the ink.

Do Not Let Your Kanji Tattoo Get "Lost In Translation"
Thinking about getting a kanji tattoo or kanji jewel? Then, arm yourself with this information before buying anything. This can be the difference between being cool and national humiliation.
What? National humiliation? OK, national humiliation is an unlikely outcome, but an article in the March 1, 2005 Washington Post Express shows that the possibility is there. "Lost in Translation" looked at the real dangers facing the unwary consumers who kanji tattoos.
I'm not kidding when I say "real dangers". But neither I refer to the practice of tattooing unhygenic. What I mean is-toe curlingly appalling linguistic errors. Specifically, I mean kanji combinations like this:
- Extremely leave military affairs
- Crazy Diarrhea
- Weird (tattooed on one B. Spears)
Yes, these are phrases that real people (yes, Britney Spears is a real person) actually had tattooed on his skin.
To be honest, I'm not entirely surprised at these and other errors. After all, I have seen many reversed images of kanji offered for tattoos, and kanji jewelry that simply did not mean anything as it should.
A necklace, remember, had the kanji for "road" in which - despite the poor owner had said it meant love. I guess his love for the road and not come back no more, no more, no more ....
As Tian Tang puts it online:
"People ask me:" I have a tattoo, can you tell me what this means and I like it? "Why did not you before you get this tattoo?" "
Yes, one would think that would be the obvious thing to do - especially if you are getting something permanent like a kanji tattoo. So how can you be sure that you do not end with a national laughing stock?
First of all, make sure you know something about the Japanese language. Discover the wealth of information on sites japanese.about.com and five minutes to get to know more about kanji, hiragana and katakana than most of the people around you have tattooed on their skin.
So, remember that often there is no such thing as an accurate translation. Basic nouns are one thing - the table is a table is a table, after all. But abstract concepts, like Semper Fidelis (the motto of the U.S. Marine Corps), can be notoriously difficult to translate well.
Once you understand this basic material, you are ready to meet the tattoo artist. That's right - meet. Do not do anything yet. First, only words. In particular, we want to find out how familiar it is with the issues mentioned above. If, after an hour or so on the internet you know more Japanese than your tattoo artist, you must be very careful about kanji she suggests.
So what can you do if your tattoo artist does not know his kanji of his katakana? How is the kanji yourself?
Well, if you are sure your new kanji knowledge, then there are a number of online dictionaries that can help.
Otherwise, I recommend getting a translation - Japanese-Name-Translation.com A good translator will be able to offer a number of different options and explain the exact meaning and pronunciation of the kanji different. They must also be able to offer a number of different styles, from the simplest sources of kanji calligraphy Shodo calligraphy a true Japanese.

This idea alone can be a nerve-wracking enough. Most people do not do anything permanent. Half of all marriages today are much less than that, and commit to the idea of an appearance much more difficult for a commitment for a soul mate.
The first step is to know your car. What do you do? What do you like? What do you want? What do you think? What kind of image is nice, and what part of your body you would like to accentuate with a tattoo? These are good places to start.
Investment, economies of scale, and the flow is of paramount importance. Tattoos well, I think it should look like clothing or jewelry respectable viewing distance.

Then you must find the artist ... one who can do mental arithmetic for you to add your requirements and ideas to give you exactly what you never knew you wanted. Word of mouth is priceless. If you see a tattoo you love someone, ask who did it. Look a tattoo magazines and the Internet to find out about local tattooists. Once you've found a few options and their studios, take the time to visit them and see their studios and portfolios.

Find a coherent work, smooth shading, and color. Tattooist to put most of your favorite work of his book to see what they do or do not specialize in skip this step. If you neglect to examine a portfolio, you deserve what you get. If you ask and they say "Portfolio ?"... Run Like Hell!
While you're there. You have thought for weeks, came in all the local tattoo shops, read the portfolios, chosen the "perfect" artist, and decided on a design (whew!). Now you are ready to sign the agreement and get your skin art dreams Come True ... right? Not yet, there Turbo! Very necessary part of the overall picture must be seen before you should have any kind of invasive procedure done. It's always a good idea to look at the practice of your artist chosen to ensure that it is not a decision you regret. If you want to be kind enough to read more, I'll tell you what you need to know and seek to ensure that you get a tattoo safely.
First, let us discuss the risks of this type of procedure. Like any other activity that involves needles and blood, there is always the possibility of transmitting disease if proper standards are not met. Blood-borne pathogens like HIV and hepatitis are the most popular concern, with most people believe their greatest risk is to "get AIDS." In reality, HIV is not a problem for tattoos, especially due to the large amount of blood to be sent to infect a person with the virus. HIV is also relatively weak and survives only a short time when exposed to the environment. Hepatitis, a desease that attacks the liver, is a much more concern, being a much more consistent pathogen that requires a much smaller quantity of body fluid transfer, but it is worth mentioning that according to the Centers for Disease Control, it has never been a documented case of hepatitis or AIDS is caused by a tattoo.
However, there is always a first time for everything, and nobody wants it, so it's always a good idea to take universal precautions. Also remember that there are many diseases out there that can receive through contact with infected blood, such as tuberculosis. That's not all, however. We must also take into account the diversity of bacterial and fungal waiting for the opportunity to spread into your new tattoo. So be careful ... the skin may be that you save.
The first step in this process is asking questions about universal precautions in the studio ... a set of practices used with each client to prevent infection and disease transmission (hence the term "universal"). Do you use new needles? Do they wear latex examination gloves or comparable working time? Do you use a hard surface disinfectant acceptable in all its instruments and work area between the two tattoos, after removal of all disposable items (razors, ink, ink, Vaseline, plastic barriers, the bands rubber, etc.)? How your non-disposable equipment sterilized? These are the questions you should have an answer before getting a tattoo or piercing ... and all others that come to mind. Remember that your health and your responsibility. Do it for yourself and your friends and family. I can not end cut by typhoid fever, do you think?
As far as sterilization goes, the three methods commonly used ... Chemical cold, dry heat and autoclave sterilization. An autoclave is a device that uses steam, heat and pressure to kill all known microorganisms and spores in which race and is the preferred method of sterilization, especially for the team that came into contact with potentially infectious body fluids. Chemical and dry heat sterilization are considered adequate for non-contaminated items (those that have not been in contact with body fluids) or items that can not be autoclaved, but not the most effective practices because the steam pressure in an autoclave (what these methods do not) is what kills reproductive spores and is found in all the little nooks and crannies of the equipment.
Autoclave sterilization takes place when clean, dry, individually packaged topics are covered at 15 psi and 250 degrees Fahrenheit for twenty minutes at a temperature and pressure (although this is the most common standard, these figures vary. .. more heat or pressure can reduce the exposure time required).
The next thing you should try to do is watch the tattooist work. Usually, this is not a problem and most good tattooists will actually appreciate the fact that you care enough to ask. Things you should try: "And 'the work area clean, organized and well-lit'," washed his hands between clients "," If he does not touch things like doorknobs, lights, telephone or radio with dirty gloves? "More confidence can you have with the artist, who also uses plastic barriers on their power, tattoo machines, spray cans, and the counter, because they have cut the gross contamination of blood and ink, which makes cleaning between clients easier and more accurate. Great care to avoid cross-contamination, which occurs when the material potentially infected with a customer comes in contact with the surface and the tattooist touches that surface while working on the next, that the " cross-contamination "between clients.
If you bear these things in mind and keep your eyes open, asking all the questions that come to mind, you should be fully capable of deciding whether or not your decision to get a tattoo be a good idea . There are few things in this world more satisfying than having a brand new, beautiful tattoo ... Besides not having to worry about getting sick from it. If you need any other reason to go through all this hassle, just close your eyes (I'm waiting ...) and imagine an oozing, festering, two weeks old fungal infection in the same tattoo and resulting scar will be that when it finally heals. All it takes is a little time and common sense to avoid taking a decision you regret. Is not the time to ensure your health and your family?
Note that the care the artist takes with his cleanliness is a good indication of the level of care that will have on the performance of your tattoo. There is no such thing as a good tattoo dirty.
