It’s not a microblade, it’s a ✨microblade✨ ⁣ ⁣ Serving Education 💁🏼‍♀️🪄 Here are 3 universal requirements that your blades NEED to have in place, regardless of brand: ⁣ ⁣ 💕 LOT # AND EXPIRY DATE - Must be printed on each and every single blade packet. ⁣ ⁣ 💕 METHOD OF STERILIZATION - Should be clearly stated on each blade packet. Look for the EO sterilized logo or equivalent. ⁣ ⁣ 💕 STERILIZATION CERTIFICATE - This functions as a declaration statement from the manufacturer and shows you (as well as your health inspector) that the product has been sterilized. ⁣ ⁣ The third point is especially important when using blades from random sources because sterilization certificates are, in some cases, unavailable. As per health department requirements, if sterilization cannot be confirmed, this renders the blades unfit for commercial tattoo use. Protect your business by using blades from reputable brands, manufacturers & distributors whom you can easily communicate with, and ones who can provide sterilization Certificates. Universal precaution + education = better informed choices. ⁣ ⁣ ✨EXTRA TIP✨ When starting an appointment, it’s a great idea to show your client the sealed sterile blade and open it right in front of them. This will ease their mind and help them gain confidence in your process.🤍⁣ ⁣ *This post is meant for educational purposes only.
