how does this tatto parlor sound to you?
 

"Our staff works very hard at maintaining a very high level of cleanliness. Our tattoo and piercing rooms are considered "clean rooms." They contain nothing porous so all surfaces are able to be sanitized. We use only single use disposable sterilized needles.

All instruments are cleaned in an ultrasonic cleaner before being sterilized in our on premises autoclave (hospital sterilizer). Current spore test results are on display near the autoclave. Stop in for a tour of our 2 floor studio."

I've been to this place before for a piercing at their old location but I've never been in a tattoo parlor so I don't know what to look for. Any advice?

just curious, what are you getting a tattoo of?

i would go check them out in person before making any decisions.

yo son, why dont you get a 'spiritual' celtic design on yo lower back or a dolphin on yo shoulder.

They have an autoclave??!?

That place sounds very clean, doesn't it. I'd be more worried that they'd only be interested in tattooing mathematical formulai, escher pictures or quotes from Terry Pratchett on you at that rate.

go for a tour, and don't get a tattoo that sucks

I think skills are more important than hygiene... You do not want a crooked tattoo, or a deformed chicken for all I care. Tattooshops usually have pictures of tattoos they did, just check those out. And be critical, they only put up their best!

I play the autoclave a little bit.

it sond very clean like the place i got my tattoo, even though they only use the nealdes once for tattoing to insure the least amount of pain and compleate sharpness, they sound good, go tour them and make sure everything is how you like it if so, get your tattoo there, if you can, speak to the man who owns the place

Don't get a tattoo, they're not cool.

tattos are awsome and addictive.., but they cost alot....., my next one with out a discount will be about $125... for its size and it will be on my lower back, i designed it my self

I"ve sen some of the artists stuff and I'm sure one guy at least could do what I want very well. I just want my baby's initials, that's all :)

^ thats a cool idea, what are they?

Just a suggestion...Dennis McPhail is the god of tattoos. His style in so crazy. You would love his work. He has to be the best tattoo artist I have yet to seen.

Honestly, most licensed tattoo parlors are clean enough. All you should do is look at the artist(s) work and decide if thats the style you like, and the quality you want. Good tattoos are not cheap and cheap tattoos are not good. Also make sure the tattoo artist and his girlfriend do not have sex regularly in the tattooing rooms. Hygene is somewhat spoiled like that. lol. I'm guilty.

I wen there today...but i didnt have an appointment or anything, I'm gonna make one though and do it- yeah!!

Oh, and I'm not sure what the laws are in whatever state you're in, but make sure they open up fresh ink, because diseases can be spread if they use the same ink for everyone. The ink should be in lil cups like dentists use for your floride.

Right track-

Dennis' style is sort of old school. He's into the hot rod scene. He's in a car club called the "Beatniks" and well, hes so awesome. Here just check it out for yourself!!!
