Please add you name and details if you agree too this...... Councils should not licence the Home Tattooist ( scratcher) this puts YOU, the general public at risk As most of these people just buy kits from ebay! have no duty of care or sterilization procedures to adhere too! Are not insured Trouble is ....the councils will licence any one to do tattoos as long as they do not charge you Does that gain your trust? Would you like to be tattooed by some one that doesnt know what they are doing?

The current level of interest confirms the urgency of this issue for local councils. I am finalizing a formal request to meet with the regional licensing board to discuss the risks posed by untrained operators.

My friend got a serious staph infection from a kitchen tattoo. The council needs to wake up and actually check these places.

Total joke that they can just buy a kit on ebay and start digging in people skin. Hygiene is not a joke. BAN THEM.

Seen way to many infections from these people. It needs to stop before someone ends up with something nasty like hep C. Keep it professional.
