That's actually so helpful! And thanks so much. If you're interested in doing I definitely encourage you to try it out.

Ah that makes sense! Thanks!

Thanks a ton! I appreciate the help and support.

Good luck! The best advice I can give you is to stay motivated to practice daily! Get plenty of input and keep practicing.

Thanks so much!

Great tip! Thank you.

I’ve been considering getting an apprenticeship but I move so often🙃 I’ll look more into it. I’ll definitely start focusing on hygiene stuff soon. Thanks so much.

@@imonawatchlist ofc no problem, and a tip for smaller lines, hang the needle a bit more out, lower the voltage and use your pinky finger for some more stability and drag/pull with your arm and not just your wrist. A important thing in tattooing is not going to deep in the skin but also not to light, by tattooing yourself u get a feel for the vibration in the skin and machine as you stretch the skin and pull a line. And no human body part is flat so I would suggest to get a 1L cola bottle or something similar and laying the second skin over and fastening it with some tape to imitate the roundness of a arm or leg, use both hands even though you don need to stretch the second skin it’s a good habit to learn early on. Bigger needle requires a more 90’ degree angel, but that’s for 15 liners and up, smaller groupings don’t really need a top down angel but remember the entry point of the needle and the way you angel it, you want it in an angel so that the needle in the skin doesn’t go outside of the stencil (if it makes any sense, like if you’re pulling towards you, you want the tip of the needle to point towards you and not to the side, a bit hard to explain but if I find a video I’ll link it) And for coloring go in smaller circles so you pack the ink in good, but lower voltage for color packing and shading then lining. Use a liner to get in those little cracks in the design, it’s hard to pack black line to line with a curved mag. If you want a smoother shade black for detail you can make your own gray by watering down your black by adding steril water, 50/50 ink/water is a dark gray wash and 70/30 is a medium gray wash and so on. Depends on the quality of ink your using, kurosumi is a really good brand of ink And watch the old guys/girls on KZbin, “iron will” is a good series, it’s by grime. And the vice series, the “tattoo age”

​@@henrikbard9375 your comment is gold. Thank you!

I kind of wish I experimented more with the machine instead of jumping into tattooing designs. Knowing what different angles, different voltages, different movement speeds, different depths, etc. do is really helpful for when you actually start tattooing designs. Watching others helps a lot too! There are tons of great artists on KZbin to learn from.

This summer fr 😎

Thank youuuuuu

Thanks so much!!!

I love Taiwan too!
