Iron & Skin LLC, which is based in Danbury, CT, is a quality tattooing service provider that has a reputation for being clean and sanitary, and employs amazing tattoo artists in the area. This FAQ article contains but a few of the questions we are regularly asked about our services.
Q. How long does a typical tattoo session last?
A. That would depend on the size of the tattoo you want if you want it in different colors, and the complexity of it. Some tattoos will only take an hour, while others will often take hours or even days to complete. This is because our tattoo artists cannot tattoo someone all day long due to the ink that is absorbed into the skin, as this can result in blood poisoning.
Q. How should I prepare for my tattoo appointment?
A. Make sure that the area that you want the tattoo on is clean and does not contain any skin lotions or abrasions. Depending on where you want the tattoo, make sure to shave the area beforehand.
Q. Can you explain the importance of proper aftercare for a new tattoo?
A. Cover your new tattoo with a dressing for a few days, wash the area a couple of times each day, moisturize several times, and avoid sun exposure. By doing the proper aftercare you can avoid scarring and potential infections.
Q. How long should I wait before exposing my new tattoo to sunlight or water?
A. New tattoos can fade very quickly when exposed to sunlight, so if your tattoo has not healed yet, exposing it to sunlight can cause blistering. In general, you must keep your new tattoo completely protected from the sun for at least four weeks.
Q. What are the current popular tattoo styles and design trends?
A. The most popular trend right now is curvy minimalist tattoos. These are characterized by their basic and clean lines and smooth curves. They often feature abstract shapes, including waves, and circles, and are done in black ink.
Q. What factors should I consider when choosing a tattoo design?
A. When choosing a tattoo design, you should consider placement, style, and what it means to you. Also, consider whether you want it in color or black, and think about long-term wearability.
