| I just find it really hard to believe that a legitimate qualified artist is taking on aprentices that are 15 years old. You cant even legally get a tattoo.. How old is this guy that is "teaching" you???? |

You seem content on doing this. I don't know all the details but I'd suggest learning everything you can. Are you certified by your health department? Are you still in school?
I'd suggest waiting a few years before you start actually tattooing. Ask yourself, would you let a 16 year old tattoo you? I'm not sure if I would.. lol
Edit: Ummm, I'm 21 and I cannot see myself running my own shop at this age. Find someone else. |

you sound llike to know what you want. i don't think there should ba an age to start tatooing. some people are more/less mature at different age.
at 20 i opened my own clothing company while my friends were still counting zits on their forehead.
best of luck |

So, what exactly do you want? Hugs and smooches?
You say you want advise and tips. We aren't here to supply you with technical information, and you just said that our advise wasn't going to matter...so what would you like from us? |

You are a 16 year old being taught by a 21 year old. I have a great deal of trouble believing that a 21 year old has any business teaching anyone anything, and one who is willing to take on a 16 year old apprentice REALLY throws up some red flags. So, when should you start working on real skin? With that info, I'd have to say NEVER. Unless there is something I am missing, I have to tell ya....there is much wrong with this picture. But you aren't interested in hearing that, so what is it that you want to hear? Where to buy needles? Ink recipes?
That's what that 21 year old teacher is supposed to be there for...and if he can't tell you when you should start working on skin, that pretty much proves my theory, doesn't it? |

A 16 and 21 year old throwing tattoo parties.
Even at which only 50%of the people say you have decent art.
Getting tattoos from someone that's not even legal to get tattoos from.
Uh yeah good luck.

| I missed the part about the tattoo parties...so here is my best advise. DIE. AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. And take that loser 21 year old (who likes to go to parties with 16 year olds...Hmmmmmm) with you. |
