Not cool, but important - Protective workwear for Tattoo Artists
You can keep your jeans, boots and your new Sullen shirt on ... but for clean work in the studio you need a few accessories. There are hygienic protective clothing, such as gloves, face masks or aprons, that go well with a stylish tattoo look. Read more in this blog.
Gloves? Definitely!
When you think of protective clothing for tattoo artists, you will think - quite rightly! -probably the first thing you think of is gloves. After all, the essential part of your work as a tattoo artist is the use of your own hands. And just like surgeons in the operating room, you have to protect yourself and your customers from pathogens such as viruses, bacteria and other germs. To do this, you need work gloves that are impermeable to liquids, but thin-walled enough not to restrict your tactile sensations, because you have to keep your good fingertip feeling. Work gloves that are too thick or rigid would simply make tattooing impossible!
The glove color of choice for tattoo artists is of course the equally cool and mysterious black. This makes work protection an extremely attractive accessory that rounds off rather than detracts from your appearance.

Unigloves Select Black Latex Gloves
Shop Unigloves Select Black 300 latex gloves now!
The Select Black latex gloves from the premium brand Unigloves are also perfect for tattooing, which requires hygienic but not 100% sterile work. They are made entirely of natural latex, a renewable and biodegradable raw material. Micro-roughened fingers and palms make the powder-free Unigloves Latex Gloves Select Black extra grippy. The elaborate finish with a two-sided chlorination ensures a realistic tactile feel and thus perfect handling of your instruments. It also reduces the risk of allergic reactions for you and your customers. Together with the rolled edge, the chlorination also makes the gloves easy to put on and take off.
But what if you have a latex allergy? Or one of your customers is latex allergic? Then we recommend the latex-free nitrile glove from Unigloves. Nitrile is not quite as elastic as latex, but it is more puncture-resistant and also provides a very good tactile sensation. The nitrile gloves from Unigloves offer optimal protection against infectious diseases and high protection when handling many chemicals.
The three protective work gloves presented here are only a small selection from our range, we also stock gloves made of the alternative material Vitril, for example. Take a look at our complete selection!
The extra-long Unigloves Select Black 300, which can be easily pulled over the sleeve protector thanks to its extended shaft, is particularly popular in the scene.
Sleeve protectors and aprons: So you're safely "packed" all around.
In many cases, however, even the best glove is not enough; then you need an additional sleeve protector to protect your skin or clothing on your arms from paint splashes and such things.
We can offer you sleeve protectors with a length of 40 cm in transparent sky blue, so that the beautiful tattoos on your forearms still shine through delightfully.
Single-use Skirt Black

If you have a really "splashy" way of working or are wearing your very best Sunday outfit, an apron for tattooing or permanent make-up may also be necessary. Here we have inexpensive transparent blue disposable aprons ready for you; or also much fresher disposable aprons in black, which don't look like a hospital at all.
Protective mask: Important for you!
When tattooing, you get very close to your customers - dangerously close sometimes, especially when viruses of all kinds are in the air. And that's what they usually do. So, even when the troublesome Corona times are finally completely over, a mask at work is definitely a good idea. At Premier Products Tattoo Equipment we can offer you a variety of masks:
Shop Disposable mouth mask - 3-Layer now!
Both the tight-fitting and comfortable KN95 respirator mask with a protective effect of around 95% and the well-known three-layer disposable mask serve to protect oneself and others from droplet infections via the respiratory tract. These classic masks in white or light blue emphasize a medical-clean look that can do well in the PMU studio, but we can also offer you the ProfilPlus non-woven mask from Unigloves in the "tattoo artist's guild color" black, which may suit your look better.
Hygiene Mask / Mouthguard
Shop Hygiene Mask / Mouthguard - 1 piece now!
Finally, the transparent hygiene mask by Glovcon looks really cool. Compared to conventional masks, the light and transparent screen that floats in front of the face makes it much easier to communicate with your customers and to breathe. The well thought-out fit prevents heat build-up under the mask, and make-up and lipstick are not smeared (which could otherwise be quite embarrassing, especially for PMU artists). With elastic bands made of Spantex, the mouthguard can be perfectly adjusted to the shape of your face, and if cleaned properly, you can even use the mask several times.
"Protective workwear" for your equipment and work surfaces
In the interest of perfect occupational safety, not only you yourself should be hygienically packed, but also your working environment. In this sense, disposable sheets for your customers (available from us in black or blue), but also machine bags, clipcord sleeves, washbottle bags or cover foils for your work surfaces for single use are a musthave, because they can prevent dangerous cross-contamination.
Ecotat - Machine and Power Supply Covers
Shop Ecotat - Machine & Power Supply Covers now!
From Elephant and Ecotat there are reliable protective covers for your machines and power supplies, pens, clipcords, water bottles and work surfaces, including ones that are biodegradable and therefore have a much lower impact on the environment than comparable fossil fuel products. We at Premier Products Tattoo Equipment are very happy to support this and therefore offer you these ranges at very good conditions in each case.
