The list of bad asses that work/worked there is a long one

Also I am trying to help here but at the same time not broadcast that I am helping – I remember how discouraging it was and also I remember the mistakes I made. I want to try and help others avoid these and keep myself under the radar while doing so.

Gonna be blunt – you asked for it by posting –

Thats not good, the first thing I notice is the design. The design is the most important thing, if you do a bad job in executing a good design then a good tattooer can fix it but a bad job and bad design are a disaster.
What is it? It looks like a tooth….. is it?
I can’t see it clear enough to judge the linework but the shading sucks.
So we have a bad design, bad shading, and probably bad lines. I hate to be the one to break it to you but if u cant hear the truth well, the world needs bartenders.

My advice is to learn to draw, well, before you ever tattoo.
Then you can do:
– Small solid black tattoos to start —SMALL–
Look up wood burning stencils
When you can do clean crisp solid black tattoos then move to whip shaded script, then black and grey, then color, SMALL TATTOOS.

If your an apprentice why wouldn’t you get the supplies from the shop your working at since this is where you will be tattooing. I am confused

If your serious about becoming a tattooer you have to realize it’s not a hobby, it’s a life. My advice is throw away the kit and charge it to the game. There are plenty of awesome tattoo shops in your area, go get an apprenticeship. Alot of shops will work with your school schedule and just extend the length of your apprenticeship. If your serious let me know and I can give you some names and shops to talk to.

Find a shop and get an apprenticeship. They will say no (if they are any good) but don’t accept it. Go back everyday, cal, email, to the point of stalking/harassment.
I emailed the shop manager 3 times a day, called once a day and went there every other day for a month before I was accepted as an apprentice.

I worked at All or Nothing Tattoo for 2.5 years and now I work out of a private studio.

I touch any tattoo I do FOR FREE, FOREVER, FOR ANY REASON. I saw your rose tattoo, if she paid for the whole tattoo then finish it. If she paid for the time she sat in the chair then charge her to finish it. When its done, touch it up if it needs it. Don’t do hands because your not good enough yet, I would also add necks and forearms to that don’t do list (if you do you will regret it in a few years , I promise).

Against my better judgement I am going to help you. First find another apprenticeship, you cant learn to tattoo from a forum. Now turn your machine up and stop tattooing like a girl.
I use a Juan Puente machine for my all around shader (color, black and grey,whatever).
My advice sounds like im being a dick but im not. Just do it.
