Learn How to Tattoo-Part One

Whenever Jason Berkowitz listens to "You're the Best" on his iPod, he recalls that 1984 summer vacation in Fort Lauderdale and seeing "The Karate Kid" for the first time. ("I thought it was the best song ever . I still kinda do and I don't care what people say," says the 29-year-old.) Whenever he listens to Zero 7's song "Destiny," which he first heard at London's Heathrow Airport four years ago, he thinks about meeting his wife, Bethany.

The thing about the iPod is, it's what you bring to it.

If you want to learn to tattoo the first step you must take is learning everything there is to know about the tools involved in tattooing. There are numerous different types of tools available on the market. Whenever possible, always try to obtain the best quality equipment you can afford. While this may mean you need to go about it more slowly, it will definitely be worth it. Purchasing inferior quality tools and equipment will result in hassles that simply aren’t worth it as well as poor quality work.

One of the most important tools you will need is a tattoo machine. Actually you will eventually need several tattoo machines because there are different machines used for different applications. For example, one machine is used for color shading, while another is used for lining. You will also need a power supply to run to your machine as well as a foot switch and clip cords to make the connection between your power unit and your machine.

If you are planning to open a tattoo shop, or even if you are planning to work out of your home for that matter, you will also need a work table, artist chair and customer chair. A work table should ideally be large enough to hold all of your tools and equipment and have a top that can be easily cleaned and sanitized. Look for both an artist chair and a customer chair that are comfortable. You may wish to choose a chair for yourself that allows you to move easily around. Don’t forget to also include a good light source that is free standing. If you can obtain one that can be used at different angles; all the better.

In addition, to learn to tattoo you will also need various needle supplies such as regular needle bars to hold the main needle group as well as a needle jig, needle bar jig and a soldering gun and stainless solder. Naturally, you will also need various colored inks as well as black ink. If you plan to do flash sheets you will also need watercolors and pencils.

It is important to note the importance of taking proper safety and sterilization precautions when you learn to tattoo. An Autoclave is used to sterilize most tattoo equipment by steaming it at very high pressure. This is an essential piece of equipment. Don’t skimp here. You will also need autoclave bags for this piece of equipment. You can use them to store needles and other equipment after you have sterilized them in the autoclave. Another important piece of equipment is the main ultrasonic cleaner and the solution to go along with it. This is used to clean any leftover residue from your needles and tubes. An ultrasonic tray can also be used to submerge inside the ultrasonic cleaner with the tools attached.

While this may seem like a lot of equipment to gather, if you take your time and make sure you are obtaining quality tools, you will be glad of it. Remember you can always make slow additions to your collection until you have everything you need to progress to the next step in the learn how to tattoo process.

Tattoo Science

Often a fog of unclearness sends me off on an unpredictable direction that may, more often than not leave some of you out in the dark, possibly with little hope of ever seeing land again.

This time around I’ll do my best to map a course that may be translated in to a visible version of all these atomic explanations. Stepping back, the responses received have been very promising as well as educational for me. Problem solving is quite stimulating as well as keeping me on my toes.

The whole idea has been to put forth the notion, that any one inefficiency glitch in the tattoo machine will most likely go unnoticed in the performance of this gadget. But the abundance of physical forces taking place simultaneously has a firing order. If one or more of these forces is set off, out of sync, the machine will never perform to its maximum efficiency, and what I mean is, using the minimum amount of energy to accomplish the task at hand. In our case, to deliver to the skin the desired effect. After all, that’s the idea, right?

I’ve personally watched a lot of the younger tattooers work, and must say I’m blown away at the final results, but at the same time you guys are missing out on a big part of the fun…you’re working to hard at this. The machine is designed to do the work, so you can have the fun, and the satisfaction of enjoying the results of artist prowess.

The understanding of mandatory magnetic and all the functionalities of energy in motion is the key, “in motion.”(kinetic energy ). Look I’m a lazy Fuck by nature, that’s why I got into this business to start with. If I want to Workkk, I’d pick up a shovel. Yeah right!!! See, tangencies again. Sorry. Unfortunately the older I get the more this becomes a lot like work.

Back to meat. At the wall socket, plug in one of those u.p.s. (uninterrupted power supplies). The gadget used to plug your computer into. The a.c. volts coming to your transformer i.e. power supply. This keeps the incoming a.c. clean to the box and will rid current spikes. If you use a battery, never mind this part: it doesn’t apply.

Art Designs

Art is very subjective, no matter how art critics would argue, and one person's art is another person's mess. Art designs are everywhere around us. They're a part of life, in advertising boards, on buildings, the covers of paperbacks and computer wallpaper. Everything you can think of has been designed. There are art designs, product designs and industrial designs. Sometimes there is a merging of the functional and the aesthetic as in a well designed chair or kettle.

Movements over the years have made a great impact, such as Art Noveau, Art Deco and Pop Art. I love the Art Deco furniture, architecture and household items. The Art Deco designer, Clarice Cliffe produced wonderful dinner and tea services which are very collectible today. There is still evidence of Art Deco houses and cinemas. Pop Art took everyday objects and presented them in a fresh way. Art designs made by Andy Warhol, who started off as a ladies' shoe designer, were some of the most iconic images of the 20th century. Campbell's Soup Cans and Brillo Pads were elevated to art.

For me, there are certain cars which are more than mere cars. They are pieces of sculpture, worthy of a place in any art designs museum. I would include classics such as the Rolls Royce in that. I also like 1960s Jaguars, Porches and Ferraris. My favorite sports car is the Lamborghini Diablo. Mouth watering prospect! The American cars from the 1950s with their huge fins are great art designs, the Cadillac models being the supreme example. The craftspeople who customize such cars with terrific art work are true artists in my opinion.

I also think that the artists who do art work for fairground rides and carousels should be more appreciated. Some people are snobbish about such things but I think they should be more open to ideas. Tattoos are also art designs. Some are very inventive and intricate. I don't want to be a walking canvas myself, but I can appreciate the artistry.

One of the biggest successes of the publishing world in modern times has been the comic strip. These employ a clever combination of words and images, to tell a story and build characterization. The art designs of the comic books can be of the highest standard. The drawing of the characters, equipment, clothes, vehicles and buildings all play a part in the overall artistry of the work. The American artist Roy Lichtenstein took this format and blew frames up to the size of big canvases. Art designs had become art, just as Frank Miller's graphic novels were transferred to the screen in the movie of Sin City.

Tattoo Books

On my 18th birthday, my friend Kelly and I made appointments at our local tattoo parlor to celebrate our adulthood. Kelly already knew what she wanted to get. She had forever been a fan of Tigger, and that is exactly what she felt she needed to have permanently drawn on her. I thought that a childish tattoo wasn't exactly a celebration of adulthood. I didn't really know what I wanted, but I knew that I wanted it to be something that meant something to me. Perhaps something that symbolized who I was. We arrived an hour early for our appointments so that I could look through the stacks and stacks of tattoo books. I was not sure what I was hoping those tattoo books would show me, but I knew that I would know it when I found it.

The first tattoo books I glanced through had some incredibly scary looking artwork that I couldn't imagine anyone would ever want. Apparently, people did though. I wanted something feminine and simple that would look attractive on my ankle. I wasn't really sure what exactly would represent me for years and years but I knew those tattoo books would show me something perfect. For the first 30 minutes, I thumbed through pages of hideous tattoos as well as really brilliant ones. Still, nothing jumped out at me and said "Pick me." I was feeling incredibly discouraged. One of the tattoo artists joined me in my search, asking me tons of questions about what I liked and my beliefs. Finally, after trying to explain who I was for 5 minutes, he stood up and dug through some of the tattoo books that I have not yet had the opportunity to look through. He flipped through several pages as well until he smiled. He brought it over to me and pointed. I smiled as well. He was showing me a dainty and attractive small dolphin. It represented me in many ways. I was an artist and this dolphin had a rainbow of colors on it. I loved the ocean and dolphins were my favorite of all of God's creatures. It was perfect. I nodded and laid down the other tattoo books. I'd found what I'd wanted.

Last weekend, I helped another friend of mine look through tattoo books for something that would be perfect for her. She had the same pains of finding something that I'd had. After she'd found what she wanted, I sat there and glanced through the tattoo books for the sole purpose of passing time. In the very first of the tattoo books that I opened, I smiled. Here we go again! My friend and I walked out of the tattoo parlor a few hours later, with smiles on both of our faces. If you're planning on getting a tattoo, consider yourself warned, sometimes those stacks of tattoo books can be rather addictive.

Henna Design

Henna design is often thought of as a safe and temporary alternative to tattooing. Unless removed through long and painful procedures, tattoos are permanent skin decorations. Those who wish to have body art for a special occasion or perhaps want to experiment without branding themselves permanently often turn to henna design.

But this type of body art is much more than a temporary way to participate in the tattoo revival that has occurred in recent years. Body enhancement using henna design has been around for years. In fact, it has played and continues to be a part of various customs and ceremonies in many cultures throughout the world. In some cultures, henna has also historically been applied for spiritual or healing purposes.

Some say the use of henna originated in India, while others claim that it began in The Middle East or North Africa. Tattooing of the hands and feet with henna as part of spiritual or death rituals has been fairly commonplace in many cultures. In many areas, henna design is used as a body decoration for brides, newly engaged individuals and pregnant women, just to name a few. It has been much more than a way of body enhancement in many regions.

One of the reasons it has played such a heavy part in the spirituality and celebrations of many cultures is that henna is not only very safe to the skin, but actually contains soothing, cooling and healing properties.

Essentially a form of temporary tattooing, it is done without piercing the skin. Henna dyes the skin when it is applied, so it is obviously much less painful than permanent tattooing. A henna design can last on the skin for a time period ranging from as few as three to as many as eight or more days, depending on the thickness of the skin where the henna is applied.

Because it is temporary, painless, artistic, and steeped in cultural traditions, henna design has enjoyed a recent revival in popular culture. Many celebrities have experimented with it, and it has gained popularity with Westerners of all ages. Many opt for the traditional art of mehndi, or the henna tattooing of the hands and feet. But henna design can be found in as many styles and varieties as other types of tattoos.

For some, the practice holds deep cultural and religious significance. For others, it is a safe, fun and creative way to experiment with self-expression through body modification. Unlike many other cultural traditions, henna design shows no signs of fading into history, but is in fact likely to become even more common.

Temporary Tattoo Designs

It is strange how big temporary tattoo designs have become. When I was a kid, I used to get all of my temporary tattoos from vending machines in the front of laundromats, restaurants, or grocery stores for a couple of quarters, but now they are every where. My kid sister orders temporary tattoo designs online all of the time, and frequently has her whole body pasted with the stickers. I guess I understand why. There is no denying that temporary tattoos are cool. I'd have some myself if I hadn't already graduated to the real kind.

Temporary tattoo designs are available in an almost unlimited number of shapes, colors, and subject matters. Of course, there are the ever popular, classic tattoo ones; there are hearts with knives through them, flaming skulls, dragons, eagles, Harley Davidson logos, and all that sort of thing. Than there are the ones with cute phrases. These always irritate me, but my little sister seems to like them as much as any other temporary tattoo designs. She's not picky.

They have things like “Too Cute”, or “Princess” written on them – stuff that, for some strange reason, middle school girls think is just precious. In fact, just the other day my sis had one that said precious, except that it was spelled “prrrrecccious” and had a cat on it, playing with a ball of yarn. There are even some temporary tattoo designs in plain black ink that look remarkably real. They are designed like stencils so that you can put different words on your arm. Others have pictures of hearts, ships, or women, and look just like sailor tattoos.

There are also the “tribal” temporary tattoo designs. These are things like naval stars, spirals, iron and Celtic crosses, and various mandalas which you can inscribe all over your body. I feel the same way about these temporary tattoo designs as I do about real “tribal” tattoos; if you can't come up with a tattoo design which has personal significance and is not just something that you got because everyone is getting them, then maybe you should give up.

The coolest, in my opinion, are the temporary tattoo designs which let you build your own. There are kits available with a few stock letters and shapes, and then a whole sheet of that temporary tattoo paper that you can fashion into whatever you want, and then rub on to your arm. The first time I played with one of these kits, I realized that one day I would get a real tattoo. I wonder if my little sister feels the same way.
