A common on going issue that is a health Hazzard is tattoo artists tattooing in people's homes.Oftentimes people are uncomfortable in tattoo parlors and would rather be tattooed in their own residence.To combat the issue I think mobile tattoo parlors should be allowed and regulated for tattoo artists that wish to free lance.Vehicle standards should be to the same level as an ambulance since it is an art form that works with blood pathogens.It should take place on the property of private residences so as not to violate public places.
