Stick And Poke
Stick and poke, also known as hand poke, is a tattooing method which uses a single needle instead of a tattoo machine. Until the introduction of electric tattoo machines in the 19th century, hand-poking was a common tattooing method, alongside incision tattoos and subdermal tattooing. Practitioners In the modern day, stick-and-poke tattoos are often performed by young adult amateurs. Minors who are unable to obtain parental consent for a professional tattoo may receive stick-and-poke tattoos from peers. Incarcerated people may also give and receive stick-and-poke tattoos, an association which sometimes gives them the name of prison tattoos.

Prison Tattoos
Prison tattooing is the practice of creating and displaying tattoos in a prison environment. Present-day American and Russian prisoners may convey gang membership, code, or hidden meanings for origin or criminal deeds.

Process Whilst not illegal, tattooing in United States prisons is against institutional rules and is therefore unregulated. The inmates do not have the proper equipment necessary for the practice. Inmates find ways to create their own tattooing devices out of their belongings and found materials. Improvised tattooing equipment has been assembled from materials such as mechanical pencils, magnets, radio transistors, staples, paper clips, or guitar strings. In addition to the tattooing equipment, the ink utilized also needs to be improvised—potentially consisting of ink taken from pens, melted plastic, soot mixed with sh ...

In these inventions, the ink was placed in a thin tube whose end was blocked by a tiny ball, held so that it could not slip into the tube or fall out of the pen. The first patent for a ballpoi ...
