Shops or artists that do not properly disinfect their machine (using an autoclave or something similar) OR change used needles/gloves run the risk of spreading any blood-borne pathogens, which could include HIV or hepatitis.

Tattoos themselves can become infected while they are going through the healing process. Proper cleansing techniques and using antibacterial soap can prevent this from occurring.
