Cosmetic Tattooing vs. Custom Tattooing

There are many options to consider when getting a tattoo. For most people, this merely involves the choice of what to get and where to get it. While for others, the decision isn't so much a question of what they'd like to have done, but what they should call it when looking for someone to help them.

In the world of tattoos there are different kinds of tattoos, as well as different uses for tattoos. For instance, there are tattoos that will help accident and scarred victims eliminate or minimize their scarring. These are in the family of medical tattoos. There are tattoos that will enhance your appearance in very subtle, permanent ways. These fall under the category of cosmetic tattoos. Then there are tattoos that are designed with you and your tattoo artist for a specific part of your body. These are called custom tattoos.

Medical tattooing is often done by specialized medical professionals in hospital environments. When talking about most tattoo studios, including Inflicting Ink, cosmetic and custom tattooing are the two categories from above that are most requested.

A cosmetic tattoo might be anything from eyebrow shading or eyeliner, to lip liner and beauty mark enhancement. Inflicting Ink employs professionally trained tattoo artists who are highly skilled in the art of cosmetic tattooing.

A custom tattoo may be something small and easily drawn, planned, and applied, or it can be something large and involved that will take many sessions to complete. Whatever custom tattoo you have in mind, the accomplished tattoo artists at Inflicting Ink Tattoo will be able to help.

Jeff Goyette Bio

Jeff Goyette was born and raised in Massachusetts where tattooing was illegal, and to this day is only allowed on a per community basis, with each community deciding for themselves whether to allow it or not. Jeff still wanted to be a tattoo artist, and so learned his trade and took it on the road with the tattoo tour where he continued his tattoo education through coursework and tour experience.

In 1993 Jeff opened Inflicting Ink Tattoo Studio in Portsmouth RI as a way to get out of touring and establish some roots in the community. He has been in this location for 17 years. After a few years in the shop however, he wanted to use his traveling experience to be able to bring tattooing to people who might not have the chance to get to a brick-and-mortar shop.

So he built the Inflicting Ink Traveling Tattoo truck, over 73 feet of truck housing a state of the art, sterile, mobile tattoo facility ~ there is nothing else like it on the planet, literally, as the Guiness Book of World Records has named it the largest tattoo facility in the world, but simply has no category to place it in.

The truck travels to fairs, events, concerts, and even does private parties, drawing large crowds and those who do not have access to a local tattoo studio for their body art. Jeff loves when he can give back to a community, and often simply brings the truck to draw in numbers at charity events whenever possible, whether any tattooing will be done or not.

He and his artists model their work on the belief that a customer should always feel that they have received a quality piece of art, that the work is consistent, and that they can be proud of their tattoo as well as where it came from.
