Tattoo equipment includes the machines, needles, inks, and supplies that artists use to create permanent body art. Understanding the basics helps clients appreciate the craft and make informed decisions about where to get tattooed.

Blackwork tattoos use solid black ink in bold, graphic compositions. The style ranges from large filled areas and heavy patterns to intricate designs that rely on contrast between ink and bare skin.

The thigh offers one of the body's largest flat surfaces, making it ideal for detailed, large-scale tattoos. The area is easy to conceal and generally comfortable during the tattoo process.
