Hand-poked is the most popular Traditional Tattooing process.

Hand-poked tattoo designs are built up dot by dot, to create discrete and delicate tattoos, which just look somehow different from machine work. The ink is inserted beneath the skin using non-electrical, hand-made and hand held tools with regular tattoo needles made of steel. People expect hand-poked tattoos to hurt a lot, but they don’t. They see the needle going into the skin and they forget that the tattoo machine does just the same but many, many times more per second; so, they don't really see what machine is doing there. On the contrary, hand-poked works are often much less painful than machine works. A common description is that it is a bit like having hairs, maybe the eyebrows, plucked.
