The Logbook Tattoo

The Logbook Tattoo is a session logbook for tattoo artists, created by Daniels Bauti and Leah Ht2 and published by Night Owl Books, to record and analyse every tattoo session: technical settings, skin, execution and healing.

 

This logbook is a technical analysis tool designed for tattooing.

 

A system to record and analyse every tattoo session across four pages, in under a minute.

 

→ Technical parameters

(machine, voltage, needles, depth, speed)

 

→ Skin condition

(type, reaction, anatomical difficulty)

 

→ Execution

(line quality, saturation, shading)

 

→ Healing and settling

(retention, how black and colour behave, need for touch-ups)

 

 

The goal is to remove improvisation and work with method.

 

Measure to understand.

Understand to replicate results.

And correct precisely what isn’t working.

 

We’ve all had some tattoos heal better than others, or tattoos that look perfect six months later while we can’t remember which technique and settings we used.

 

That’s why this logbook was created by Daniels Bauti and Leah Ht2.
