Lala Hartline, who co-owns Evermore Galleries, says people who are getting tattoos should ask to see someone's license before allowing them to do any work.
Licensed tattoo artists must do a one-year apprenticeship under an experienced artist and they must renew their licenses every year. In addition, tattoo shops must be licensed and undergo quarterly inspections.
Licensed tattoo artists refer to the unlicensed as "scratchers" and say while their work may be faster and cheaper, it comes with risks such as disease transmission, infection and badly scarred skin.
"You can't just pick up a machine and start inking. Scratchers don't understand that, have no concept of what art is," Burgans said.
Guild leaders say they are considering a push for stricter state laws or local ordinances that would target offenders.
"We don't mind the laws; they are a good thing," said Justin Nave, owner of Sick Boys Ink, which has shops in Chattanooga and Dunlap. "We want to be a productive part of the community, but scratchers compromise and undermine the progress tattoo artists have made."
