Tools of the Tattoo TradeThe best tattoo artist is only as

good as the ink and equipment

with which s/he creates.

The basic necessities include:

Ink

Needles

Grips

Tips

Machines

Aftercare Products

TattooInks

Every tattoo artist has a different

personal preference when it comes

to what tattoo ink they choose to

use.

Some professionals prefer to mix

their own colors using pigment

bases and a carrier. However, most

choose pre-made tattoo inks.

BodyShock offers many high

quality choices in premade tattoo

inks.

TattooNeedles

Needles are varied according to

their uses. Shading, outlining, and

coloring all require different kinds

of needles.

Basic varieties include liners and

shaders; round, fine, magnum,

wide, and flat.

Quality needles will be sterilized

and manufactured with stainless

steel.

TattooGrips

Tattoo grips determine an artist’s

control of the tattoo needle and are

varied to match the individual

artist’s preference.

They are available in different sizes

and shapes.

Grips can be made of plastic, steel,

and hi-tech alloys.

TattooTips

Like needles, different styles of

tattoo tips are required for specific

maneuvers and to securely hold

different styles of needles.

Basic tip styles include diamond,

round, flat, and magnum.

Tattoo tips can be made of

disposable plastic or re-usable,

autoclavable steel.

Tattoo Machines

The tattoo machine is a hand-held

device that has an armature bar to

push a needle into the skin.

Bodyshock Inc. offers two kinds of

tattoo machines: coiled and rotary.

The coiled tattoo machine is most

commonly used today. It’s

powered by electromagnetic coils.

Rotary tattoo machines are

powered by electric motors.

Bodyshock Inc. is the world leader in tattoo equipment and body jewelry, with sales offices, warehouses and factories in the United States

and in Europe.
