Before you visit a tattoo shop in Kentucky

  • Bring a valid photo ID. Most US shops will not tattoo anyone under 18, even where state law allows it with parental consent.
  • Expect to pay a deposit for booked work. It is usually taken off the final price and may be kept if you cancel late.
  • Look at healed work in the artist's portfolio, and ask how needles and equipment are sterilised.
  • Ask for aftercare instructions before you leave and follow them until the tattoo has healed.
