I've been watching many alcohol ink videos for new/different techniques. Your videos have introduced me to some great ideas as well as the products to make the inks flow on the paper. Thank you!

Just finding your videos: love them! I am laughing to myself. Whenever you say it's a hot mess I am over here wishing I could get that far. I'd take your "hot messes" any day and scream Hooray!

[@SCARYHAIRLADY]

Thank you..

[@nanasue4481]

Wow! Thank you so very much! I cannot tell you how helpful this has been. I’m so glad I let the video run instead of stopping it when I thought you’d finished. I don’t have an air-gun (yet), but I do have the little ‘rocket-blower’ thingy. Now after watching your add on, I can’t wait to go and try again. Fingers crossed, I might just be successful after your tuition. YAY !!! By the way, I love your accent! You have a soothing voice. Thanks again 🙏🙏🙏🤗 🇬🇧

[@SCARYHAIRLADY]

Glad it helped! and yes you can do this. Keep playing. Show me your work sometimes too. Thank you for watching.

[@rimabilani7076]

At 8:24 you had a beautiful guppy ❤😂

[@SCARYHAIRLADY]

Ha Ha I see so many things as the painting progresses. It is really fun to watch them as I edit. I see things I wish I had noticed.

[@lenamadeleineJ]

I simply love this

[@SCARYHAIRLADY]

Thank you

[@jonaeflure]

Happy 100th video! Thank you so much for showing how you create your petals. "I don't hang around long so I don't remember what I do ". 😂 You have got a great sense of humor. How did you come up with the name Henry?🥰 I assembled my acrylic organizers yesterday. How cute that they came with mini screwdrivers.

[@SCARYHAIRLADY]

Thank you so much! Henry came from Seattles Best Coffee. they have an orange cat as their mascot. I use to drink their coffee.

[@k.b.woodworker3250]

Thank you! I've been having trouble with petals. First, the dot is always too big, and you discussed that, including using black first. Thanks for showing the splits because that oten happens to me. I'll continue to practice. With a bottle that has only a bit of alcohol.

[@SCARYHAIRLADY]

Keep playing. You can do this

[@aslbyweller]

Thank you for this tutorial. It helped me start to practise with my brand new airbrush. I think your work is quite beautiful. I loved the piece you made with your mother in mind. 😘

[@SCARYHAIRLADY]

You are so welcome! Thanks for the sweet words. I was really glad I had some skills so I could put the pictures in my head on paper. That is why I do these videos. Once people have skills they can do what they want. Thank you.

[@cathymokaraka3695]

You’re tips are amazing! And I have all the same problems. Lol. Ty

[@SCARYHAIRLADY]

You are so welcome! I want to see some of your petals soon.

[@kerinstinear8662]

THANK YOU

[@sprinkles4375]

Thank you! Very helpful!

[@SCARYHAIRLADY]

Glad it was helpful!

[@theymove5325]

First, thank you for doing all of these videos I Love the individual lessons on the techniques. I know this is an older video I hope you still check comments. I am new to alcohol inks And i'm watching a lot of videos. I see a lot of artists choosing the airbrush. Would you recommend Getting one of those right from the beginning? Thank you In advance

[@SCARYHAIRLADY]

You are very welcome. I love my airbrush. So my answer is YES. I got a small one but after a year got the bigger one. It's blue. amzn.to/3tFuMWh absolutely love mine.

[@louisepage3842]

Thanks, appreciate all the great information.

[@SCARYHAIRLADY]

Glad it was helpful! Welcome

[@tinaanderson6199]

Thank you for showing your mistakes. It eased me of my own. 💙

[@SCARYHAIRLADY]

That is exactly why I almost quite doing alcohol ink. Everyone did things perfect and mine were not. So I thought I would just show the good bad and ugly. I had never seen anyone correct a mistake or just go with it to see what it does. That has been my whole channel. I don't want to practice before I do a painting. I just want to see what it will do. Keep painting and have fun.

[@dianethomas01]

Thank you so much for sharing! I’ve been very frustrated with my beginner attempts, but this may be the key for me to figure this out. I’m a face painter, and with COVID, I have no outlet for my creativity. I came across AI on TikTok and decided to try it, because I think it’s beautiful!

[@SCARYHAIRLADY]

You are going to have a blast with this ink. I really started doing well when I concentrated on learning 1 skill at a time. after a few I started to imagine and create somethings. Now I can do most things that I want to. But I am still playing and trying new things. As I learn I share. Hope it helps.

[@victorialynch6350]

The picture you made in memory of your mother is gorgeous. I'm sorry for your loss. I lost my mother just after Thanksgiving in 2018, but still miss her daily. What temp do you have your dryer on? Cool or low?

[@SCARYHAIRLADY]

when I use the dryer it is on high heat. I use high air on most things. The airbrush is about 30 psi

[@DrumminGville]

A question from a newbie about precision tips. It appears that inks do not come in precision tip bottles so you have to buy bottles with those tips separately - is that correct? Can you just get the tips to insert into the original ink bottles? Or do you have to decant all your inks into new bottles? Thanks so much for your help - I've been googling this question with no success! These videos are a life saver 😆

[@SCARYHAIRLADY]

I do buy some bottles with needle nose tips. But I do not transfer ink from the bottles unless the bottle is messed up. If I am mixing ink and alcohol then, yes I will transfer some ink and alcohol into another bottle. If I buy in the big bottles 2 or 4 oz. I will transfer into another bottle. I hope I did not confuse you . Let me know if you have anymore questions. Eloise

[@earthsister6941]

I love your style! I only wish all the alcohol ink artists would tell the compressor PSI and nozzel size on air brush. Colors to me are less important than the air control.

[@SCARYHAIRLADY]

Good point. the nozzle size .. I have not idea. It is what came on it . The PSI is between 25 and 35 for most petals that are smaller and longer.

[@helene6290]

Cela est vraiment magnifique. Quelle encre utiliser vous support? Merci de m'aider. Cordialement

[@SCARYHAIRLADY]

hi. I like Tim Holtz Alcohol ink, Pinata Alcohol ink, marabu and Let's Resin. Thank you

[@salvatricedimauro4601]

Sei bravissima, ma potresti tradurre in italiano grazie

[@SCARYHAIRLADY]

Oh. I do not have any idea how to do that. I am really sorry.

[@helene6290]

J'ai oublié de vous demander si vous faites sécher la goutte d'encre avant de douffler

[@SCARYHAIRLADY]

in the center of the flower? yes. I let it dry or I dry it with a blow dryer so it will not spread too much

[@dbald8]

I'm new to alcohol ink why do you dry the red ink first? And is it dried all the way?

[@SCARYHAIRLADY]

It is one of the ways to make petals. When you put down multiple colors they mix and it is really pretty. yes it is dry all the way.

[@cindycowdin7047]

This looks like more for advanced. That’s probably why there is control where the petals go. Just sayin

[@SCARYHAIRLADY]

The only difference in beginner and advanced is practice. Sometimes this clicks with someone and they do fine with it, sometimes it takes some practice. The same principle either way. Just have fun with it. Paint like you don't care. You will uncover some natural talent. Have fun with it.

[@janeharrell9032]

You are a great teacher. Thank you. I have really had a hard time with this. What is the pressure you use.

[@SCARYHAIRLADY]

Thank you. It take a bit to get the feel for it. but you'll get it. I use about 20 to 25 psi.

[@janeharrell9032]

@@SCARYHAIRLADY thank you for the encouragement. Your work is beautiful.

[@SCARYHAIRLADY]

@@janeharrell9032 You are so so welcome

[@brandied.7706]

Thank you so much for sharing! Concerning the little "beads" or the way the ink "balls up" at the very end... do you have an in-line moisture & oil seperation filter between your air line and your airbrush gun? I'm taking a (strictly uneducated) guess that, maybe that's excess moisture. And, that's exactly what those filters are made to prevent. I've just recently learned about that, actually. I'd be really interested to know if that's what that is. Just a guess, though.

[@SCARYHAIRLADY]

I don't have a filter on my airbrush. While it can be humid here I do this inside. When I do have problems inside, which isn't often, I let the dryer blow for a few minutes or I play with ink and the blow dryer and the humidity doesn't seem as bad.

[@joyelise426]

can you tell me the model of your airgun, please!

[@SCARYHAIRLADY]

Look in the description undermy name. Where it say show more. There are 2 one is big (over kill) and a small black box one. Thats the one I use the most.
