Cosmetic tattooing is forever growing in popularity, and right now it's absolutely huge! One of the most popular treatments for women, (and men) at the moment is microblading. Microblading is a really meticulous tattooing process for those wanting a semi-permanent solution to sparse or none-existant eyebrows. A tiny blade is used to deposit ink throughout the brow area, into the upper layers of skin, which results in a natural-looking filler that lasts between 1-3 years. It's the perfect solution for anyone who is sick of the laborious task of penciling in their eyebrows everyday, and great if you want your natural eyebrows to have more definition and depth to them!
We may be UK based, but that doesn't stop us from appreciating Superbowl Season! Whether you're a fan or not, you can't ignore the Superbowl mania that'll be taking over our TV screens this Sunday! The NFL is absolutely huge in America, and although it's not as big in the UK, in the past few years it's made a massive impact in England, especially with Jacksonville Jaguars regularly playing home games in London, so today I wanted to have a look at some really cool NFL tattoos - seeing as it's quite fitting with this weekend's events!
People seem really keen on getting new tattoos in the summer months. Naturally, we wear less clothing in summer as it's hot and sunny (although this is questionable when it comes to the North of England!). Although it's the perfect opportunity to show off your new work, in reality, summer really isn't the best time to be getting tattooed! Of course, it's a bit of a sweeping statement to say that you absolutely should not get tattooed in summer whatsoever, but if you do, it's important to take extra precautions to ensure your tattoo is well looked after - as summer can be a pretty grave time for the healing process of a new tattoo.
One of the greatest black and grey masters in the tattoo industry at the moment, is widely renowned tattoo artist Victor Portugal. Born in Uruguay, Victor lived in Spain for several years, before eventually moving to Poland, and setting up shop in Krakow where he now works. Victor started tattooing in 1998, and tends to favour dark, biomechanical work with surrealist elements. He's really cemented his place within the tattoo industry as an exceptionally talented artist, and has been in the tattoo game a long time, working lots of different tattoo conventions worldwide, getting to know the industry inside and out. So it's no surprise that someone with his talent and knowledge has brought out his own range of tattoo products.
At Magnum Tattoo Supplies, we have a lot of exceptionally talented tattoo artists on our sponsored artist pro team, each one with a unique and brilliant style, and today we wanted to talk about one of the artists who's really killing it in the tattoo industry at the moment. Ben Carlisle, who works at Devil in the Detail, Stoke-on-Trent has been one of our sponsored artists for almost a year now, and we're really glad to have joined forces with him! Ben specialises in hyper-realism, and the majority of his work is really colourful and detailed, and he has a knack for creating some incredible cartoon and Disney themed pieces. His work is literally breathtaking, aso we wanted to take a look at some of his more recent creations.
Ever had a really bad tattoo that you deeply regretted? Perhaps it was an ex's name, or something daft that you got whilst on a boozy holiday? Don't fear, because laser tattoo removal is here! I've got a couple of badly done tattoos from when I was younger; the artist went far too deep into the skin, so most of the line-work has completely blown out leaving me with some really questionable work. It's easily covered by clothing, and it doesn't bother me too much, but I'd like to get them eradicated at some point in the future. I've previously considered covering the tattoos up with new work, but my tattoo artist advised that as they were big colour pieces that covered the whole of my feet, laser removal treatment was a necessity if I wanted to be able to tattoo over them at all. It's not something I'm in a rush to do, but it's great to know that I have the option available to me! At Magnum Tattoo Supplies, as well as offering the best Tattoo Machine prices, we like to stay in the know about all things tattoo related, so I today I wanted to chat about laser tattoo removal.
