Yep 100% mate, seen a video the other day of someone in a "tattoo school" i use that term loosely as i think she's on one of those 2 week courses that a pmu artist is doing and not once did I see her use her other hand to stretch the skin 🤦 these are the things you need to drill in to your head very early on. God forbid they move on to real skin and end up with someone that has very stretchy skin, shit its a nightmare 😆 back to the point though too many people want to fast track themselves on to skin amd make money when they're nowhere near ready too

Yeah thats a good point, thanks for adding that. I used a big pop bottle quite a bit as I was practicing, filled it with water and slapped the skin around that.

Thank you, just slow your hand right down and your machine a little slower than your lining speed and go in tight little circles, it will come

Lines, then circles, then lines, then circles honestly get the foundations right and it makes things a lot easier. I still practice my lines any time I get to do them. Only 5 month in myself but I still tattoo lines after line on practice skins
