Choosing the right tattoo artist

Anybody can undertake a tattoo with the right equipment, but it takes years of training to do it properly, safely, and with a high level of artistic ability. Remember that this is a choice that will stay with you for a life time, and that you deserve to have a top quality tattoo to last you through the years. Tattoo studios are subject to regulations governing issues such as hand-washing facilities, hygiene standards and sterilisation. They are also subject to inspections by local Health Departments. All these factors make going to a professional studio a better choice for your tattoo as you are assured a stringent level of quality.

Questions you should ask yourself when looking at a tattoo studio:

• Is the premises clean and tidy?
• Does the premises have a friendly, professional atmosphere?
• Does the artist use single use latex gloves when tattooing?
• Does the artist use single use cups for holding the ink?
• Is there portfolios of the artist's work readily available?
• Is there an autoclave on site?

All that and more...

At fox, we are all that and more, we are proud of our longevity and the fact that so many clients refer their friends to us. We are constantly re-educating in areas such as infection control and sterilisation and we perform sterilisation techniques to european standards which are higher than those required in Australia.

On an artistic level, we have a range of artists all capable in many different styles and willing to show you their work, or you can research your artist here on the site and have them design a custom drawing for you... ( a drawing fee applies ). If we don't see your ideas working as a tattoo, we will let you know and advise otherwise.

The best thing you can do is pay us a visit and see for yourself!
