The Apprentice Guide To Tattooing

Posted by InkGuy on 12.11.13IL

I purchased this guide from Amazon and it came in a few days ago, I must say it was a great read. The tuning section was great, way more in depth then I ever read before. I know you guys hate education thinking it some how takes money out of your pocket.

But this was a great guide, I recommend for anyone starting out as a apprentice or going at it by learning on your own.

It really touched on Safety, BBP, artwork, practicing on synthetic & pig skin, machine tuning, suppliers. It really gives a good understanding on what it takes, and how much work and dedication it really takes to become a tattoo artist. It also has a good section on how to get a apprenticeship at a shop.

If your just starting out on piggy I would for sure recommend this book. It will for sure map out a good path for you to begin it will also teach you why it is not safe to tattoo in your kitchen I learned more about what it takes to be safe and sterile then I ever knew. Some great links etc..
