About hand tattooing

I use machine for outline, TEBORI for coloring and shading.
TEBORI is the traditional method of tattooing by hand which has been practiced for over 400 years in Japan.

The tattoo instrument consists of a set of needles attached to a ebony handle.
The needle used in TEBORI are the same stainless steel needles used in machine tattooing.

The skin heals quicker, and there is less inflammation and bleeding than machined work.





I always use new needles, new pigment, and new gloves.
The other utensils are sterilized in an autoclave in strict accordance with regulations.

This means they are heated to 134 degrees centigrade at 200,000 Pa steampressure for at least thirty minutes.
No microorganism can survive this temperature.




THE EIFFEL TOWER WASN'T BUILT IN A DAY...

Tattooing for under 20 is not legal in Japan.@Please bring your ID card or passport.
I don't accept any checks or credit cards.

Thank you,

Tattooist RYUGEN
