New site? Maybe some day.
|
My friend got a tattoo gun for christmas. He's been practicing on fruit which is what they recomend when you're first starting off.
He's not that stupid and knows he can't get into tattoo skin right away because if he does it wrong it could build up scar tissue and shit. Does anybody know a website or something that can explain how to properly do it and give tips or anything? I tried looking for him but could only find books and stuff. |
|
i'd trust a book before i trust anything on the internet |
|
Also, does he know any artists he could talk to about it? He could look into maybe aprenticing somewhere. |
|
He's buying a book, just wondering if there was anything on the net he could read up on before the book arrives. He went to this tatto shop and asked about an apprentiship but they said no because he was too new to it... |
|
pff thats like telling someone they cant have a loan cause they have no money. well good luck to him anyways. |

Yeah exactly, doesn't make any sense. |
|
thats a tough call, to me, tattooing is one of those things you have to be shown by a professional. you can read all the books in the world, but until a trained professional shows you how to do it, you cant really know. if he wants to make a profession out of tattooing then it would be worth the time. |
|
He should get together a portfolio of his artwork and look around more. Not all tattoo artists are that against helping out a necomer... as long as he seems to know what he's doing, of course. |
|
He doesn't want it to be a profession. We're just dumb teenagers and feel like tattooing eachother. |
|
oh my. then knock yourselves out. |
|
who gets a tattoo gun for christmas? its like asking for a forklift. |
|
Ha ha ha... well just stick with that, then. Just stay the fuck away from me! |
|
start tattooing guy's dicks since they are ugly anyhow. I would say add some flowers to take away from the melty gum look that dudes got going on there. after that, move up to places people don't see like bottoms of feet. most bottom of the feet tattoos (in caluses) will grow out anyhow. |

i don't think anyone would waste their time apprenticing someone who doesn't want to take it seriously. that doesn't make much sense. |
|
ya, just as long as you keep that gun away from me, i pay good money for a reason. |
|
the only tattoos I have were done when I was a dumb teenager with a pin and india ink.
I never got tattoos cause I forced myself to wait 6+ months when I wanted something. then I would see it on some one else and it would look absolutely retarded (plus, the person was usually fat). that made me extremely happy that I didn't get whatever it was. |

Wrong. It's someone local. |
|
His girlfriend is trying to do it for a living. She's going to beauty school now for hair and tattoos and she couldn't even get an apprentiship at the three tattoo places she went to. |

i'm sure if she was hot she'd have no problem although she'd more than likely have to pay back in blowjobs. |

perhaps, but i am also correct.
|
|
I'm starting an apprenticeship.
You have to know someone usually. I got reamed by one of the artists for ordering equipment to the shop when he didn't know the situation with me getting grandfathered in. |
