Allow UK Tattoo Studios to Re-open
Tattoo studios and theIt staff are trained in the appropriate measures and actions to control and prevent cross contamination. A tattoo studio is one of the most sterile and hygienic business environments and requires more use of PPE than any of the other aforementioned businesses
Barbershops and Hairdressers use hairdryers and other air pressure based equipment, which has been banned due to it contributing to the spread of Coronavirus as it is airborne.
Tattooists deal with open wounds which are cleaned regularly, leaving our clients at no extra risk of exposure to the RESPIRATORY not BLOODBORNE viris.
A tattoo studio will have far less people present at any one time, than the number of clients that come in and out of a barbers, hairdressers, restaurant or pubs.
