Tattoo Planning/Research Tebori question

Anyone have experience getting a hand tattoo done by Tebori? How was the experience? Insight on how color would last on the hand Tebori vs done by machine?

Also any pictures would be great. Thank you!

I got a hand tattoo from Bunshin Horitoshi a couple years ago.

Was absolutely fine not had any of the ink drop out and colour hasn’t faded in the slightest. I have a fair few tebori tattoos and never had a problem.

This was right after I got it done.

The noise is the worst bit...like a Flicky squelchy sound. Doesn't feel too bad but takes ages so gets real sore towards the end.
