    If you're talking about having a part of an existing shop (of some kind) as an area that you will be using to tattoo people, then I really think you should think again. You obviously do not know enough about the sterilization/cross contamination procedures and risks, and could be leading yourself (and anyone that goes under your needles) into a whole world of trouble.

    Agreed.You need an area that can be kept sterile at all times and a corner in another persons shop--beauticians,hair dressers etc could not be kept this way.

    Ok if its only the insurance youre talking about I`d say a chat with a broker or insurance specialist would be on the cards.

    Public liability,break in cover would be the minimum.
