Should You Bag Or Cover Your Tattoo Machine?

In this video we talk about bagging your machine or covering it with a disposable barrier.

We know there are a lot of arguments about how safe a covered tattoo is. Especially when you compare it to an autoclaved machine.

Regardless the intention, if you swab, wipe, autoclave, or spit shine the machine you are using, a disposable covering is the smart way to go.

Think about it. If a dentist drilled into your mouth with a machine uncovered, would you let them continue?!

We have some articles that also improve your tattoo game. If you enjoyed the video, follow the links below to check the articles out.
