Tebori

Tebori is traditional Japanese hand tattooing. Many artists praise it for its ability to create subtle gradations of tone that are difficult to achieve with a machine.

I'm thinking of getting a Tebori style tattoo, instead of a Kikaibori tattoo

Kikaibori

Kikaibori is tattooing with a western style electric machine.

I'm too afraid to get a Tebori style tattoo. I'd rather get it done Kikaibori style.
