Tattoo Republiq on Creative Business with Lloyd Luna

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.
