Scottsdale, AZ, April 08, 2011 -- Getting a tattoo can be a very exciting experience. But tattoo fun shouldn’t mean that you ignore tattoo safety. EZ Tattoo, Scottsdale's original tattoo shop, has for years been the model of a clean and safe tattoo shop and owner Myron Larrabee offers the following tattoo safety tips.

“First and foremost, the tattoo shop you choose should have very high standards when it comes to hygiene and cleanliness,” Larrabee said. “Tattoos have moved into the modern age and the standards for cleanliness and safety have moved with them.”

For instance, EZ Tattoo is one of the only tattoo shops in Phoenix that performs spore tests every two weeks on its equipment. The shop sends the samples it gets from its autoclave (an instrument used to sterilize equipment) machine in to an independent lab regularly, ensuring that all equipment is sterile and your tattoo experience is a safe one.

Next, EZ Tattoo promotes safe tattoo work by utilizing stainless steel wherever it can (stainless steel is much easier to clean and sterilize) and employs separate “clean” and “dirty” rooms for its equipment, removing the rick of cross-contamination.

“A clean shop is a sterile shop,” Larrabee said. “We know that cleaning a shop twice a day ensures the safest possible environment for our customers.”

And what about that tattoo needle? Larrabee said EZ Tattoo uses tattoo needles only once. Each needle is then placed in a biohazard container to be disposed of according to health laws.

“We take your health and safety seriously and any other shop you choose should do the same,” Larrabee said.

EZ Tattoo's new location, located at 909 N. Hayden Road, nearly doubles the space of the original shop that occupied the corner of Scottsdale and Second Street in old town Scottsdale for almost 17 years. That location sat adjacent to Larrabee’s popular Billet Bar.

The new location provides more of a salon experience and includes private artist rooms that allow customers the opportunity to have tattoos and piercings done without the prying eyes of strangers intruding. A state-of the art clean room ensures safety for customers and a high-tech design room and thousands of design examples ensure that customers receive a work of art tailored to their specific desires.

“Customers demand a higher level of sophistication from a tattoo shop and EZ Tattoo delivers that better than anyone else,” Larrabee said.

EZ Tattoo and Body Piercing is located at 909 N. Hayden Road in Scottsdale. For more information or to schedule an appointment with an artist, please call (480) 941-8720 or visit www.ez-tattoo.com.
