When safety and quality are priorities, in Wilmington and Jacksonville, NC look to Hardwire Tattoo.
Choosing the right tattoo studio is crucial to ensure you get the tattoo you want – and you want to have a good experience in the process. Upon entering any reputable tattoo studio, you should see training and licensing certificates/permits openly displayed. The shop should never smell, and if it does, the smell should remind you of a hospital – clean and sterile – never musky or dirty. The floors and counters should be clean and free of ink spots. Also, there should not be any cloth furniture anywhere in the studio; you could easily contract a disease from invisible dried blood on furniture.
If you’re considering getting a tattoo, come to one of Hardwire Tattoo’s parlors. Each one of our tattoo shops is designed with your comfort in mind. We have private rooms and talented artists who can help you with your tattoo ideas, in addition to a fun and clean environment
Bold Statements, Thin lines, and Bright Colors
Tattoos require a lot of thought and preparation – you don't want to end up with something you'll regret. The most important thing you can do before getting a tattoo is to take the time to find the right tattoo studio and artist. Many people just decide on a whim that they want to get a tattoo and go to the nearest studio without much thought about what they are doing. Some of us get lucky and walk away with a great tattoo; some don’t. Make sure that you get a tattoo you are going to be proud of for the rest of your life! At Hardwire Tattoo and body piercing studio, we ensure you never feel rushed or awkward, a possibility at other tattoo shops.
