The Perth Tattoo Expo (also known as The Australian Tattoo and Body Art Expo) is usually around mid September each year. The convention features a ton of artists from all over Australia as well as plenty of International artists. If you are after a tattoo from the expo, it is advised to book directly with the artist to ensure they have time available – some artists are booked out months in advance so be sure to get in quick! Tickets are available online and at the door – though a discount is provided online. There are no age restrictions for entering the expo, however Australian law prohibits anyone under the age of 18 getting tattooed.
Cosmetic tattoos are a method of make-up tattoos that are ideal for enhancing and correcting the shape of eyebrows, eyeliners and lips. This form of make-up does not run, wash off or smudge. They are very popular for those that are allergic to make up or wish to look great all the time without the hassle of applying makeup. Cosmetic tattoo’s in Perth can be done at selected beauty salons rather than the traditional tattoo studios – however feel free to call your favourite tattoo studio to see if they offer them.
Henna tattoos are a natural dye prepared from various plants and trees. The dye is naturally very dark and has other uses than tattooing. Henna tattoos also have other benefits other than aesthetics, such as helping healing, soothing sunburn, cooling the skin, and being a great skin moisturizer and hair conditioner. Henna tattoos in Perth are available from places such as Minu Threading and other beauty salons across Perth.
