Health Risks

  • There is a risk of getting Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, HIV/AIDS and other infections when getting a tattoo. Protect yourself from Hepatitis B by getting vaccinated. There are no vaccines for Hepatitis C or HIV.

  • Do not drink alcohol before getting a tattoo, it can cause excess bleeding

  • Cleaning products and sterilizing equipment (such as autoclaves) are available and used. Autoclaves are the only acceptable sterilizers.

  • Make sure the tattoo studio is clean
