Today’s
talk at Creative Business with Lloyd Luna is a little different from the other
topics that I’ve been posting. Today’s guest is Ms. Janice Garcia Factor, a
tattoo supplier of Tattoo Republiq Supplies.
“I’m happy selling everything” Ms. Janice
said during her interview with Mr. Lloyd Luna. From this point of view I was
able to see right away how dedicated she is in business, and this is her edge
from her other competitors. She made it to a point where she conducted studies
regarding tattoos – from the tools that the artists are using up to their
corresponding prices. “It’s a continuous
study”, she said because Tattoo industry also evolves. She wants to know
the new tools or supplies that every tattoo artists will need to keep them
updated and the new designs or art that people prefer to be inked on their
skins.
During
the interview, Mr. Lloyd asked some of the frequently asked questions about
tattoos like “Bakit nagpapalagay ng
tattoo?” Ms. Janice answered this question as tattoo has meaning, it could
be memorable, it could also be a name or a portrait of the beloved person who
passed away which is called “memorial tattoo” and it could also be an
expression.
The
host also asked “What can you say about
the discrimination of tattoos?” “It
started noong old fashion pa ang mga Filipino. Kasi dati kapag may tattoo ka,
kung hindi ka basagulero, galing kang bilibid” but Ms. Janice cleared that
tattoos are accepted by Filipinos nowadays because they can see it from other
countries that they tolerate it. “Even
doctors and nurses meron na.” Ms. Janice added.
Regarding
the physical pain that a person who wants to go have tattoo, Ms. Janice said
that there are anesthetic cream that could be injected to their skin to make
the pain bearable. And about the issue that getting a tattoo is unsanitary, she
answered, “before they use the same
needles, ngayon kasi may disposable na. And you should buy the disposable ones
because it’s a must” and “ang
Department of Health may mga nire-require para siguraduhin na malinis yung
ginagamit ng mga tattoo artists.”
If
we are planning to have a tattoo, Ms. Janice said that it is not necessary that
the artist has tattoos as well. We just have to assure that the artist has
legal requirements such as DTI, mayor’s permit, etc. “At kapag magpapap-tattoo ka na, dapat yung mismong needle bubuksan sa
harap mo para makita mo na bago yun.”
