We all know how the outbreak of this pandemic is affecting our day-to-day life. We are forced to restrict ourselves to do what we really want to do completely. But we can still consider some very strict guidelines and give our life an artistic freedom right?
There seem to be many questions about the risk and safety during the COVID-19 pandemic. Tattoo artists are at a medium exposure risk to get COVID-19 as they handle body fluids, blood and are near to people. There are high risks for both the clients and tattoo artists. So, there are few notable tips that tattoo artists and clients must follow to stay safe from COVID-19 such as:
1. Strict Appointment System Strict appointments must be followed. The clients must be asked a few questions before visiting the tattoo studio asking them about having any COVID-19 symptoms in the last few weeks and ask if they have been in any situations recently that may have raised their risk, like travelling or protesting. The appointments must be scheduled in a way that only limited people are in the studio.
2. Wear masks and gloves all the time Wearing masks and gloves are very important as the most common ways to spread transmission is through close contact between people. The virus that causes COVID-19 spreads primarily through droplets generated when an infected person coughs, sneezes or speaks. You can also get infected by touching contaminated surfaces. So, it is always important to wear gloves and a mask as they add an extra layer of protection.
3. Washing and sanitizing hands regularly after touching objects and surfaces The objects or surfaces which are likely to carry infections such as tables, doorknobs and handrails which is why washing hands regularly with soap and applying hand sanitizer thoroughly is very essential. The temperature must also be taken with the touchless thermometer before entering the studio.
4. High standard of cleanliness in workplace Client’s safety has always been the number one priority in tattooing and body piercings. It is very important to clean the machines and workplace tools to prevent cross contamination. Tattoo studios must maintain a high standard of cleanliness by disinfecting the high traffic areas regularly. Household cleaners and bleachers are effective in sanitizing the equipment and not to forget cleaning the electronics as well. Adding wipe-able covers to cellphones tablets can be very effective.
If you have to get a Tattoo during this COVID-19 pandemic, with these measures in mind We hope you get your perfect tattoo without risking yourself and others. Thank you.

How much does a Tattoo Cost?
Tattoo artist charges
Some artists charge by the hour, some will charge by the piece. These days hourly charge is more popular.
Tattoo artists set their prices according to their skills, quality of work, and their experience.
This is why you should not shop around for the best price, but the best quality. It is definitely better to wait until you can afford to pay for a quality service from an experienced artist whose work you love instead of bargaining over prices.
It’s the same with plastic surgeons, the best ones charge the most because when it comes to your body and health you don’t want to go cheap, you are investing in yourself.
But please don’t assume every artist that charges a lot is good!
Tattoo Artists are professionals
Why is it so Expensive?
Usually, the deal in tattoo studios is that tattoo artists share some of what they earn with the studio to cover for the overheads – rent, cleaning, tax, bills, etc.
There is a minimum charge for any tattoo as a lot of preparation, time and equipment are required for any tattoo even if it is a small one.
An artist needs to prepare the designs (even if it’s small and simple it still needs to be fixed, changed a bit, or redrawn)
The design needs to printed, stencil needs to be prepared.
It usually takes about 30min before artist can start tattooing
A lot of products need to be prepared and purchased– ink, power supply, tattoo machines, needles, disposable tubes, cleaning products, gloves, paper towels, etc. All of these cost a lot!
Then comes the huge time and effort that is put in to your tattoo by the artists. Years of experience and hours of hard work make your tattoo look good.
Tattoo artists do interfere with human bodies and their insurance is the same as the doctors insurance, that does cost quite a lot of money.
Of course, the bigger / more detailed tattoo the more preparation and tattooing time, as well as products and equipment are needed.
As you can see it is not as much as you thought that they make for the work that requires so much responsibility, experience, knowledge and precision.
So always believe in your tattoo artists and make sure you support them as well. After all, it’s better to pay a little more than being end up with some thing that you will want to get removed (which will cost you a whole lot of more money).
