How to Set up Your


Basic Professional Kit
Next is a list of brands and stores to set up and buy your first machines
and power source.

This is my recommendation based on my expertise. There are

that if you just want to start practicing on oranges or try them out, you’ll
always find machines at very low prices (USD $20) at supply stores.
These Chinese machines can be useful to loosen up your hand and
practice. However, I recommend that if you want to get started on
people, you like what you’ve practiced and you're thinking about
getting into professional tattooing, you can consider the following kits.
