The Rebellion Reads: A Tattoo Artist Blog for Professionals
Welcome to The Rebellion Reads, a tattoo artist blog for professionals who demand depth, accuracy, and logic. This space is dedicated to tattooers who value clarity over trends. From ink formulation to machine mechanics, we go beyond surface-level tutorials and dive into the technical layers of professional tattooing.
If you’re looking for a tattoo artist blog that challenges assumptions and delivers lab-tested insights, you’ve landed in the right place.
Why This Tattoo Artist Blog Is Different
Unlike mainstream content, The Rebellion Reads focuses on the why behind your tools and techniques. Our posts cover topics such as:
-
Tattoo ink chemistry and pigment particle behavior
-
Engineering logic behind coil and rotary machines
-
REACH compliance and safety standards in manufacturing
-
Needle taper, stroke, and cartridge performance
-
Sterilization methods and lab-tested microbiology
These aren’t generalized tips – you’ll get professional-level insights backed by actual testing and real-life studio experience. You’ll understand the mechanics, not just memorize instructions.
Moreover, we constantly update topics to reflect current EU regulations, because we have none in the US. Because of that, you’re always working with up-to-date knowledge. Articles also highlight common misconceptions, helping you avoid costly mistakes before they happen.
The Rebellion Reads is for Evolving Professionals
If you’re refining your lining speed, evaluating ink flow, or adjusting your machine stroke for better saturation, this blog supports your journey. Every article is created to be practical, honest, and technique-driven – ideal for those who never stop learning.
Additionally, we aim to explain not just how a technique works, but why it works. This mindset creates a stronger foundation for decision-making in every tattoo session. You’ll find that understanding the theory behind your tools leads to better consistency in your work.
We also welcome feedback and collaboration from artists in the field. Sharing knowledge helps us all grow.
