Equipment Tattoo Photo #6212

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.

Fine-line tattoos use a single thin needle to create delicate, precise designs with minimal line weight. The result is a subtle, almost sketch-like quality that suits detailed small-scale work.

The shoulder's rounded shape gives tattoos a natural frame, wrapping designs around the deltoid muscle. It's a versatile placement that transitions easily into a sleeve or back piece.
