Community Resources

One of the best things about tattooing is the vibrant community of tattoo artists around the world. Tattoo artists are constantly coming out with new and cool ideas, putting out good work, and the art of tattooing has never stopped evolving. At Hildbrandt, one of the ways we give back to the community is to share interesting information about various tattoo related subjects. We’ve pooled our thoughts over the years into this community resources section of our website.

Got something interesting to share? Our blog is read by thousands of readers every month – if you have any ideas you want to share with the community, you are welcome to submit a guest post to share your thoughts and get your name out there!

We regularly post things we come across that we find of interest to the tattooing community. The things people come up with in the tattoo world never ceases to amaze us! Occasionally, we also share our latest products / innovations, how-tos, general observations, rants, and more.

Look, nothing substitutes having a proper apprenticeship at a reputable tattoo studio and learning from a pro. However, if you are interested in taking a look at what tattooing is like or looking up references (e.g. needle sizing, etc.) then this is the place to be.
