The process of hand tattooing is more commonly referred to as Stick & Poke, and for this, you will first glove up and then take either a standard and sterilized tattoo needle which is affixed to the bar or sterilized pins that you can then in turn attach to a chop stick or something of the sort with sterile dental floss and you will dip the needles in the ink and then use your hand motion to drive the ink in the skin and how you do this is up to you. Some people like to stab the ink in one dot at a time while some others like to use a fairly good sized cluster of needles and they will then with gentle force repeatedly stab the needles into your skin in a dabbing motion to almost replicate a machine's action. It's pretty easy to get the hang of, is fairly painless, but it does take longer obviously since you are laboriously building all of the ink up by hand.
