Help document the state of tattooing

An industry research program built around artists, owners, suppliers and collectors.

Coverage brief. This is an editorial agenda, not a completed reported article.

The Tattoo Tribune Industry Census is a planned voluntary research initiative. Four respondent paths will cover artists, studio owners, manufacturers and suppliers, and consumers.

Before collection opens, we will publish consent information, data handling details and a methodology. Contact data and research responses will be separated.

A voluntary online survey is not automatically representative of an entire industry. Future reports will disclose recruitment, sample sizes, limitations and potential bias. No research results are available yet.
