Zucco & Prickle

Got any tricks for scoring a legit tattoo on the back‑alley scene—where the ink stays sharp and you don’t end up with a cheap, crooked piece? I’ve got a few spots that keep the lines clean, but I’m always on the hunt for the next hustle.

Sure thing, champ. First off, scope out the spot like it’s a pawnshop—look for artists who keep their gear clean, use fresh needles, and don’t rush. Check the line work before you sign on; a real pro will let you see a few clean lines up close. Keep the skin prepped—clean, moisturized, no rash—and make sure the artist’s lighting is good; a bad light makes even the best line look fuzzy. Finally, sit tight during the session, keep your body still, and trust the guy who knows his angles. That’s how you get sharp ink and avoid a crooked mess. Good luck on the hustle.
