WTF is handpoke?

WARNING: You might become ADDICTED! 

Handpoke tattoos are created without a tattoo machine. Instead, they are applied manually one dot at a time. It's a slow, but intentional practice that creates a quiet, calm, and meditative environment. Due to its delicate nature, handpoke tattoos yield some beautiful results.

Around the world, the ancient art of handpoke tattoos has been practiced for centuries. Today at Love Always Tattoo, we practice contemporary handpoke methods. We use modern equipment to ensure the finest sanitization and application practices. This contemporary application of handpoke lends to a gentler, non-abrasive experience that leaves clients wanting more.

What more could you ask for!?

Whether it’s your first tattoo or 100th, it's easy to fall in love with handpoke tattoos. 

What are the benefits of a Hanpoke Tattoo?

Less Painful: No tattoo is painless, but due to how handpoke is applied, many find it less shocking to the body. Your nervous system is just feeling the poke — not the vibration or sensation of a needle piercing the skin multiple times per second. 

Heals Quickly: Because of handpoke’s meticulous application it tends to be less abrasive on the skin, therefore healing quickly. During the aftercare process clients often report that their handpoke tattoos were much less maintenance and heal better than their machine tattoos. 

Quiet: Sound plays a big role in our sensory experiences. Handpoke tattoos are virtually silent. Most clients comment how calm the lack of sound makes them.

Unique Experience: I’m sure you can tell by now that handpoke tattoos are all around a wonderful way to get tattooed. It's an experience unlike any other, connecting your mind and body while getting a beautiful piece of art.

Is a handpoke tattoo right for you?

Well… if you like tattoos that are high quality, less painful, high quality, and relaxing… then I would say HELL FUCKING YES!!! You don’t know WTF you’re missing!
