What clients in Afo should ask

Client checklist for Afo
Training evidence
Ask how the provider keeps tattoo machine setup and safe needle depth up to date. A professional should be able to explain what they are qualified to do and where their limits are.
Records and consent
Responsible studios keep clear tattoo consent and medical-history forms so that client decisions, products, procedures and aftercare guidance are not left to memory.
Risk conversation
Before the procedure, the provider should discuss infection and cross-contamination in plain language and give the client time to ask questions.
Local regulations and BAQA standards
Rules in Afo may be set by a local council, health department, state, province or national authority. The exact system can vary, but clients can always ask how the studio follows infection-control requirements for tattoo studios and how those duties are documented.
BAQA does not replace local law. It gives the public and the industry a standards framework that sits beside local regulation, helping clients understand what good practice should feel like during consultation, treatment and aftercare.
