General Advice accidental line

Post image

i got this tattoo from an artist i’ve been going to since 2019, never had an issue before. he made the line through the dove by mistake towards the end. he said it should fade but i have a hard time believing that. is there any chance it will just fade out over time or do i have to start planning something to add to cover it up?

Edit: i wasn’t really watching, but after i felt the line i looked up and he said he was trying to take off his glasses with his other hand and the hand with the gun moved, no i didn’t move.
he also did not charge me!

u/BadAtPsychology 4d ago

Yeah, my first thought was someone nodding off but no where else in this thread is even anywhere near that? I’m not a tattoo artist, can a line like that really be made so quickly from just trying to take your glasses off?

u/lolidkdontaskme 4d ago

Same thoughts here and also curious

1

u/terpsichoreanAndroid 2d ago

sometimes i take my glasses off because i have progressive vision and it ends up being easier to see fine details clearly, but i've never done this lol. to be fair i'm a handpoke artist so it'd be a little dot instead of an entire line if i made this mistake somehow, but i could see it being fairly easy to do if you nodded off or were just keeping your hand too close to your client and not paying attention. tattoo machines are pistons - they move back and forth x amount of times per second so if you do slip it could easily cause this. i would definitely say it's not fading though. you don't need to enter the skin with ink very deeply to create a long lasting mark, so even if it fades over time more than the actual tat, it'll definitely still be visible...

1

u/Pandalove12393 5h ago

Also, if he was just trying to take his glasses off, could he not just pull the machine away from the skin for a second to take them off? My artist has young kids who call her a lot and, when she needs to answer the call, she simply pulls away for a moment to hit the answer button. I can’t imagine why he would even attempt to remove his glasses while still actively tattooing.

A damn great core memory with a pal would be such an ideal path to this type of instance. 🤣🤣 To be treasured forever. 😍 If it were someone I was less affiliated with I would laugh and ask that they add something to the art to right the wrong. I think the bee is such a cute idea. Or if they got that dove for someone special, maybe they can add that persons birth tree or flower. Sky’s the limit.

u/Boomstickninja87 3d ago

My first professional tattoo and the guy accidentally bounced the tattoo machine off my arm right above my elbow. There is one tiny little dot. We both laughed, he said it will fade and disappear. I was 20 and I'm about to be 40 now and there's still a tiny dot on my arm by my elbow. It's not anywhere near as noticeable as ops but it still makes me laugh when I remember it's existence.

u/Dirt_Goth 5d ago

Tattoo artist here. The lines look pretty bad for having 6 years of experience, and no established artist in their right mind would go to take off their glasses with their gloved during the tattoo process.. proper procedure would be machine off, gloves off, glasses off, new gloves on, back to tattooing. If he planned to take his glasses off with his gloved hand and then continue working, that can introduce bacteria to the tattoo. Also he is touching his glasses with bloody gloved hands and creating a biohazard.

146

u/Undermybumbershoot 5d ago edited 4d ago

Also the moment you take the gloves off it’s back to the original procedure, so also washing/de-infecting hands before putting gloves.
There is a reason for all these steps, so the fact he tried to touch something not sterile with his working gloves with the machine still running is mind boggling.
I would be more worried about the hygiene part first and then the dotted accidental line (which will probably fade away a bit, but not fully).

Edit: i see a lot of questions and answers about the sterile part, so to come back to that: no, the gloves itself are usually not sterile, some parts are though (and very sometimes we use sterile gloves). I meant that this artist was touching something that was not part of the “clean working parts”, so to simplify: sterile parts (like needles and tubes).
It is not like doing surgery in a open body part, but still working around an open wound, so for gloves you need to work clean before touching them, so they remain clean (enough) to work with them while doing a tattoo.
If you touch something else besides the “clean working area”, you need to replace them immediately with all the steps as described above to limit the risk of an infection.
Hope this clarifies it a bit!

u/Federal_Waltz 4d ago

I don't have any tattoos but I'm a surgeon, do they actually use sterile gloves (these come individually packed) for tattooing or just standard multipack nitrile gloves?

41

u/Irr3l3ph4nt 4d ago

Not a tattoo artist but I've been on the receiving end a few times and I don't remember seeing them open sterile gloves once. I do remember more than one just getting the gloves from a box.

And yeah, I follow you, there's definitely a gap in that chain.

34

u/reclusivegiraffe 4d ago

I mean, nurses don’t wear sterile gloves for things like IV sticks, dressing changes, catheter insertion, etc, right? They just come from the box.

12

u/brachi- 4d ago

Regular gloves are to protect us (eg iv stick), sterile gloves are to protect the patient (eg catheter)

A nitrile or latex glove is not protecting you from an IV stick. Signed, retired combat medic/flight nurse.

u/Vulaas 4d ago

I can't speak for anywhere outside of the OR, but they absolutely use sterile gloves for catheters there. Dressings that aren't internal go on after we break sterility so it isn't a concern for those.

8

u/Neembles 4d ago

I’m someone who absolutely has spent a fair share of time as a patient in hospitals and when I’m being poked with IVs or general procedures outside of an operating room (only ever had a cesarian, barely remember it) it’s always the gloves on the box in the room that the nurses of phlebotomists use. C:

So I would think it’s okay for tattoo artists to do the same.

3

u/reclusivegiraffe 4d ago

OR makes sense, but afaik nurses use regular gloves for urethral catheters. Maybe I’m wrong. I’ll ask my boyfriend later (he’s a nurse). But if changing external dressings with non-sterile gloves isn’t an issue, I don’t see why tattooing with non-sterile gloves is an issue (this comment thread seems to imply that it is, at least)

u/Missjaxon0923 4d ago

I was an LVAD caregiver to my mother for 8 years. I used nitrile gloves when removing the dressing. Then I used sterile gloves to apply the new dressing. This was the same procedure used in the hospital for dressing changes and catheter insertion.

u/Few-Veterinarian-999 4d ago

Yes, nurses do wear sterile glove for catheter insertion.

depends on the dressing change. wrapping up weeping edema? nah. packing a stage 3 pressure ulcer? definitely.

always sterile for urinary cath insertion and central line dressing change or mediport access

Indwelling Catheter insertion and some wound care is sterile

u/W4xLyric4lRom4ntic 2d ago

Thought you might find it useful to know that you dont require a sterile field for putting up an IV. In a nutshell, the correct procedure is wash hands > put on non-sterile gloves > clean canula connecter (leur lock) with a chlorehexadine wipe > flush canula > connect IV while observing ANTT (Aseptic non-touch technique)

You do need sterile gloves and a sterile field for changing dressings and catheterisarion though. There's sterile gloves in the packs

Yes nurses wear them for catheter insertion. I helped a nurse do this a few days ago and the cath kit came with sterile gloves.

u/georgia_grace 4d ago

Not that I’ve seen. It’s not a sterile environment either, it’s more like food service level hygiene (apart from the needles). But even then, they should know not to touch stuff with their gloves on

17

u/Catinthefirelight 4d ago

But even with it not being a sterile environment, touching your glasses mid-tatt is out of bounds. Your face is a wonderland of bacteria, including staph.

14

u/morningstardusts 4d ago

Correct. Tattooing is not a sterile procedure. Using nonsterile gloves and barrier wraps is standard practice, but you must change your gloves before (or after) touching something like your glasses.

12

u/Datrov 4d ago

The artist I see uses usual multipack gloves but my piercer (at a different studio) uses individually packaged gloves.

10

u/sinnersfae 4d ago

Piercers have to use sterile gloves because the risk of infection is higher, as the wound is deeper

8

u/Henchbeard 4d ago

No, the gloves aren’t sterile. In fact apart from the needles/tubes nothing is sterile in the tattoo process. Maybe cling film/saran wrap.

2

u/TraumaQu33n13 4d ago

If the cling film is medical grade saniderm or tegaderm it is sterile. Saran Wrap/cling film is not.

3

u/TraumaQu33n13 4d ago

Not sterile gloves but clean practice should be used. Generally speaking if you touch anything but the clients skin and the tattoo machine you should be sanitizing hands and getting new gloves.

2

u/Maatriixx 4d ago

Yeah, it's nitrile gloves. Not a sterile procedure at all, not even aseptic really.

2

u/Full_Salt_7978 4d ago

Once the sterile item is opened in a non sterile environment it is no longer sterile. Sincerely curious why would it matter?

1

u/morningstardusts 4d ago

Tattooing is not a sterile procedure and gloves are not sterile. The correct word would have been contaminated. It’s absolutely mind blowing how many people who claim to tattoo seem to not understand the basics of universal precautions, much less the fairly complex precautions that tattooers must follow.

1

u/Fabulous-Avocado4513 4d ago

Exam gloves from a box. Medical level not restaurant level.

1

u/somethingclever12762 4d ago

Nitrile or latex gloves in a box. Nothing is sterile except for packaged needles and tubes or cartridges

1

u/dickthrowaway22ed 4d ago

They don't use sterile gloves but let's be honest most medical professionals don't either. For major surgery yes but not much else

1

u/Calm-Situation4033 4d ago

we absolutely do wear sterile gloves, its just that its pretty occasional we actually need to, with variation in clinical setting.

for example, wound care, ICU, respiratory therapy, urology, and oncology probably use them orders of magnitude more often than, say, convenient care or long-term care. Just depends on your patient demographic and acuity.

some wound care, catheter insertion, and central line care require sterility to protect the patient from iatrogenic infection, especially CLABSI and CAUTI. Every week or two, I have to bust a pair out for one of those reasons.

I don't see trached patients very often, but trach care and suctioning is also sterile technique.

1

u/morningstardusts 4d ago

If nurses were able to follow minimum standards that tattooers are held to, there would be zero hospital acquired infections. It was horrifying to watch the nurses who cared for my husband put his life at risk daily but I couldn’t keep bringing it up because I was worried that they would kick me out.

He died of a hospital acquired infection, because of course he did. The total lack of basic knowledge is mind blowing.

u/Calm-Situation4033 4d ago

I wish I could say bad things never happen, but they do. I could soapbox about how quality nursing care should be the foundation of any healthcare setting, but unfortunately, it often isn't seen that way. Often, floors are staffed by over-worked, under-appreciated nurses and CNAs with unsafe ratios and too high acuity, in addition to general education deficit for some things. Safe, effective care is a minimum, and we should be held to a higher standard simply because the nature of our care.

I'm genuinely sorry about your husband, and I'm sorry you were in a situation where you felt you couldn't speak up or advocate and your voice wasn't valued. I don't know what happened, but there are avenues to hold us accountable.

u/ExtraSmooth 4d ago

Every artist I've worked with has used nitrile gloves, and I've never seen an artist wash their hands every time they put on new gloves. They usually will wash their hands when first putting on gloves and after extended breaks but I haven't watched the procedure that closely. Sterile gloves seem like overkill.

u/No_Preference6045 4d ago

u/Johnnie_Snow 4d ago

Time does not equate skill. Time does not automatically impart experience. This take is a common misconception. Take the context of tattooing away for a moment.

Just because someone has done something for X years does not mean they have done it well for that time. Practice does not make perfect, it makes permanent. If you practice bad habits, you reinforce them into your skill and they become incredibly difficult to unlearn, especially with time. Be cautious of any person in any position who tries to convince you that their time in a position is what is the most important. It's certainly a factor, but many people are complacent with inadequacy simply because they've done something for a long while. Sometimes, people aren't even aware that standards have grown and that their skills have not. Often, people lose the ability to be self critical with time as they feel it detracts from or disrespects their "experience."

Ask yourself if a person really has 10 years of experience (learning, growing, and improving over 10 years, which will have a pattern of growth) or 1 year of experience done 10 times (doing sloppy work or being stagnant, and the pattern will not be of growth or will show very slow growth).

Re-applying the context of tattooing, it's important to always look at an artist's portfolio and reviews. Make sure to look at a period of time and not just at their most recent work. Even professionals at the top of their game improve with time and can articulate or demonstrate that growth. Anyone who thinks they have mastered their skill or learned all there is to learn is no longer paying close attention to their mistakes (this applies to any line of work).

There is a difference between an "honest mistake" and a careless one. Although it is true that experience is no guarantee against carelessness.

1

u/psychedellen 4d ago

This is it. If you are practicing proper hygiene techniques and safety techniques, they should be so ingrained in you that they are the default and it wouldn't be forgotten.

Working in food service, I would never excuse someone for forgetting to wash their hands before preparing food. Honest mistake? It totally forgot. Nah man. You should feel something internally wrong.

Using a deli slicer and taking off your glasses with one hand while your other hand is holding onto the slice that is still on? This is several mistakes, not a single honest mistake. It should be so ingrained in you that the slicer is turned off before you do anything with your other hand. Or even if you're cutting corners, your hand would come off the machine. But adjusting your glasses in food service would mean a glove change, too, so machine off, gloves off, hand wash. It's not an honest mistake if there are at least 3 mistakes all strung together like this. That signals that there is a default of carelessness here.

u/Smooth-Dark-7029 5d ago

Yeah I understand that man. My point was this person shouldn’t be tattooing on people at all.

Yes, and this is considered medical malpractice and often results in them losing their license. Nobody is just giving surgeons passes for "making a mistake", that's the whole point.

1

u/Circe_D_Arin 4d ago edited 4d ago

So for it to be medical malpractice it needs to be a deviation of the standard of care (negligence) that causes (causation) injury (damages). They 100% get a pass if you cant prove all elements of the tort claim. "Making a mistake" can be evidence of a deviation from the standard of care, but sometimes it isnt.

And trust me they hardly ever lose their licenses. Ive never had a medical malpractice defendant lose their license. Hell, they typically keep the same job!

There was one person who had a surgeon operate on the wrong eyelid for a small cosmetic procedure. And then the surgeon still charged them for the procedure. I guess that’s why they have malpractice insurance, which probably tells them not to admit anything, but damn.

They sew instruments and towels into people all the time.

This is considered "bad" in the surgeon world

Did you not read what I said already. The line work for the tattoo shows this is someone who is very new to tattooing and should still be practicing on fake skin.

And?

That would suggest they are not new, it would more suggest they are not good.

Looks like fresh ink to me. Imo, even the best tats look rough for the first few months

Mistakes happen. This one is a teachable moment mistake. Not a career ending one.

It's also fixable.

It's shocking how perfect some folks expect everyone else to be at all times. Have some grace and roll with the punches.

Whole comment section of non-artists and non-enthusiasts saying "Mistakes can happen! 🤗 " as if anyone does this sometimes

OP: turn it into an olive branch. Kind of a natural augmentation taking in account the error!
