Free DIY Tattoo Instructional Booklet

DIY Tattoo Instructional Booklet

Oh HI! I've updated our free 30-page DIY tattoo instructional booklet. You can download it here:  Tattoo Book Insert.

There are some important changes including:

  1. Tattoo Instructions:  How to use the stencil paper & Stencil Stuff in the new kits
  2. Blood Borne Pathogens: These are really small.
  3.  Ideas: The suggestion to avoid designs and patterns from a culture different from your own (appropriation)
  4.  Info on the EXPERT KIT (more needles, more inks, oh my!)
  5. How most of our stuff is made locally. Also from recyclable, vegan, compostable, stuff made in the USA. We pay a living wage to all our part-time Independent Contractor Kit Makers.
  6. Pro Tips. Did you know that putting ointment on while poking will help keep the area free of ink puddles? Yer welcome. ;-) <3

More needle types for complicated DIY tattoos

We hear that people want to try more needle types in order to create a thicker line and do some other tricks. We are therefore phasing these into our EXPERT KIT. After your initial kit, you can get an Expert kit, which now contains three 7 Round Liners! That is seven little itty bitty needles mushed onto the needle shaft. These little ones hold ink and create a thicker line. (3 Round Liners are 3 little ones, 5 is five and so on...) Enjoy!

Poking in 2007 – Throw Back Thursday

We've come so far! Out with the old, in with the new....

This article, "Stick 'n' Poke" by Ben Cho in Vice is sweet & expresses the extra feels involved in home tattooing. I do not however recommend the materials nor method that they use espesh' all the drug use. Regardless, tattoo result is quite nice - and fine lettering is hard to do. I hope that future tattoos by Ben and Alexis can be done more safely.

Check out my kit and the instruction manual there within....:-D

Ben: “Whenever I’ve tattooed someone, I feel as though it creates a unique bond.”

Alexis: “I’m really happy with my new tattoo and I feel great. It’s like endorphins are shooting out of my body. I feel like going out and [...]

UNDERAGE TATTOOING: Don’t Do it.

I do get hate mail. It is usually claw dragging professional tattoo shop owners who type a form of caveman hater, “you, die, now,” with little further explanation. I expect that these guys have very unhappy partners, or none at all.

However, I recently got an email from a father from Scotland who was pee-oed by a stick and poke tattoo – namely the new one on his 16 year old son. A kit was somehow sold to his son's friend who then gave him the tattoo. I feel his pain. My intention is never to assist in under age tattoos. I take great measures to prevent these kits from being sold to minors. In my online check out, there is a restriction on credit card holders who are under 18. It is also written everywhere, in the sales agreement, and stores that sell my kits must card the buyer. This does [...]
