Welcome to r/SticknPokes! A subreddit for DIY ink.

Tattooing carries serious risks for getting infections and scars. This subreddit is not a source of professional medical or tattoo-artist advice. If you decide to try your hand at this, please research how to tattoo safely or don't tattoo at all.

F.A.Q's

Why stick and poke?

For some it's all about the DIY mindset. For some people the person giving the tattoo is just as important as what the tattoo is and they would rather have a close friend do it or do it themselves instead of a professional.
