"REALITY CHECK FOR REALITY TV SHOWS!

Every day I get asked about Miami Ink and Inked..... well I decided to write an honest review of these shows:

DANGER !!!! TATTOO "REALITY" TV SHOWS

NOT realistic at all..........................................................
It used to be a secret society.... The tricks of the trade were passed down from Artist to Apprentice in a time honored ritual.
Old School rules no longer seem to apply today.
It seems to me that it has become far more important to 'look cool' while you are doin' the tattooing, than to put on a good ,safe tattoo.

Take MIAMI INK and INKED for a couple of shining examples.
The producers of these shows are trying to murder the Tattoo Industry.
THESE SHOWS DO NOT PRACTISE PROPER CROSS CONTAMINATION PREVENTION PROCEDURES!Thus; mis-informing their viewers on a daily basis about what is acceptable in a "REAL" tattooing environment.
These shows do have a use.... One of my friends uses them to train his apprentice about "WHAT NOT TO DO" by having the apprentice list on every episode the 'tattoo taboos' such as no machine bags,short useless clipcord covers,no bottle bags, using latex gloves instead of nitrile,touching ink bottles with a bloody glove and then puttin' them back on the shelf, answering the phone with dirty gloves, wiping tattoos down bare handed ..... THE LIST GOES ON!

A note to the producers.... DO YOUR RESEARCH!
LOOK AT THE CRAPPY EXAMPLE YOU ARE SHOWING!

NOTICE TO ALL TATTOO COLLECTORS:
DON'T GET TATTOOED WHERE IT ISN'T SAFE!"
