Tattoo you: Know the AFI before you get ink

Su'a Sulu’ape Angela, a tattoo artist from San Diego, Calif., uses sterile, stainless steel tools to hand-tap a tattoo for a Marine Corps member at the Pacific Ink & Art Expo, Blaisdell Exhibition Hall, Honolulu, Hawaii, Aug. 4, 2013. This traditional Polynesian-style of body art requires assistants to stretch the skin while the ink is tapped into the skin. Angela said, “Inadvertently the way the tools were built there’s not much bleeding and it heals superfast. Military members getting a tattoo should make sure anything that will touch the skin—gloves, needles, ink cups—is single-use only. (U.S. Air Force photo by Tech. Sgt. Phyllis Keith)

Su'a Sulu’ape Angela, a tattoo artist from San Diego, Calif., who practices the ancient Samoan art form of hand-tap tattoo known as tatau, works on a tattoo for a Marine Corps member at the Pacific Ink & Art Expo, Blaisdell Exhibition Hall, Honolulu, Hawaii, Aug. 3, 2013. She said the Marine Corps Recruit Depot in San Diego used to give the new Marines just finishing boot camp a list of reputable tattoo shops in the area but stopped doing that. She said after boot camp the Marines are gung-ho to get a USMC tattoo and may not choose the tattoo shop wisely. She said that even though the tattoo industry is highly regulated one still must do their research before committing to a tattoo. (U.S. Air Force photo by Tech. Sgt. Phyllis Keith)
