latex free tattoo studio

3 messages · last activity 12/26/2009

I am looking for a completely latex free tattoo studio for my son. He would really like to get a tattoo and I was going to get him one for his 18th birthday. However, he has a severe latex allergy. He needs more that just an artist who is willing to use latex free gloves for him. Just being in the same room where latex gloves are regularly used can put him into anaphylactic shock....which could very be fatal. Anybody know of a latex free studio? Or someone who would come to a house to do the tattoo? I saw one online, but it was in Chicago and we'd like to stay local if at all possible. Thanks for any info!
the majority of studios i know use panthera gloves these days easiest thing to do is ring and ask good luck with your search H
Latex Free Nitrile are the way to go anyway, as petroleum based ointments break down the latex and put your health at risk.
