word to the wise: GO TO A PROFESSIONAL, GET A BACKGROUND CHECK OF THE PLACE AND PERSON WHOSE GOING TO WORK ON YOU, CHECK YOUR SURROUNDINGS AND MAKE SURE ALL IS CLEAN AND THERE IS NO DIRTY NEEDLES OUT AND ABOUT.

SAFETY ALWAYS COMES FIRST!



ABC News reported back on August 10 a story about the "growing risk of hepatitis c due to tattoos" with a supported report that "A systematic review of 124 published studies from 30 countries found that people with tattoos were almost three times as likely to have hepatitis C as those without tattoos, according to Dr. Jane Buxton of the British Columbia Centre for Disease Control in Vancouver and colleagues."
