start tattooing at years 2003..but using a hand tape only..no machine..some time using home made tattoo machine..
In Sarawak, tattoo culture started from the Ibans, famous for the ‘Bungai Terung'(in my language) a.k.a “borneo rose” design. Traditionally, it is quite painful since Ibans don’t have machines and needles that time.We uses charcoal Or soot to be a tattoo ink…and Tattoo Exist at borneo because of Head hunter executing.. In case… Head is Lose!!So how to Recognize the body??? So we can recognize the body from the tattoo..
that a long story..now all iban is christian..no more headhunter
hope all of you can make me for 1 of your friend..maybe my English is not so good..
i will learning more in the future..
i promise to be a good friend.
