What is the correct response if gloves become contaminated?

Wash them with soap
Change them immediately
Wipe them with alcohol
Wear a second pair over them

The correct answer is: Change them immediately

When gloves become contaminated during any procedure, changing them immediately is essential to maintain a safe and hygienic working environment. Contaminated gloves can lead to the transfer of pathogens and other harmful substances, posing risks to both the tattoo artist and the client. Changing gloves promptly ensures that any potential contaminants are removed, effectively reducing the risk of infection or cross-contamination. Proper hygiene practices are crucial in a tattoo setting, as the skin is being pierced, and the risk of introducing bacteria or viruses increases significantly with any form of contamination. Maintaining strict protocols regarding glove use not only protects the health of everyone involved but also reflects a professional standard in tattooing.
