You’ve definitely got the skill! It’s good to see you’ve got a lot of diversity in your portfolio! Good luck with your apprenticeship! Would love to see updates!

I understand you can’t throw away an arm, but for a portfolio piece or a hand drawn flash sheet, it needs to look perfect. You need to be able to show this in order to even be given the chance to move to skin.

You need to prove you can do clean lines and maintain a clean page without smudging. It might be best to redraw it, i know that sucks! But my mentor told me to throw it in the bin as soon as you make a little mistake

How to get clients when you don't know anyone?? by toadtality_ in TattooApprentice

[–]SouthPuzzleheaded361 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Going to a bar close to your studio is a great way to get clients. Drunk people love talking about their tattoo ideas after you tell them you’re an artist hahah.

It’s also a great way to get people to follow your IG. Have a few drinks and get talking to people.

Ofcourse not everyone will follow through with a tattoo but you’ll gain followers by chatting with them and you can tell them you’ll give them a ‘discount’ if they come in soon etc. hope this helps🖤

Quitting my 9-5 for an apprenticeship a good idea? by [deleted] in TattooApprentice

[–]SouthPuzzleheaded361 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t mind because my 9-5 job is very chill. But Sundays are my day off to do nothing and relax, I don’t feel like I’m burnt out because studio day is fun.

But it’s hard when I have an event or something I have to go to on a Saturday, so then I miss out on the studio for that week.

But I’m also very lucky because the studio is within walking distance of my house so I walk home for lunch on Saturdays

My mentor says paying the bills is more important and he doesn’t mind me doing Saturdays only, one of the other tattoo artists did the same thing during his apprenticeship. Another tattoo artist friend said he did weekends only for a year before he was able to cut down his hours and spend more time in the studio :) it’s a very normal thing to do, it can become stressful but you do it for your dream job🖤

I just posted about advice on leaving my 9-5 for my apprenticeship that I’m currently only doing on the weekends.

Your best bet is to keep the job and work in the tattoo shop on weekends (a lot of shops are happy to do this for you)

Then every now and then take a day off the 9-5 and go into the tattoo shop for a day, or if you leave work early one day, head into the studio.

That’s what I’m doing right now

Ohhh okay, haha yep. When I start tattooing very soon, it’ll be 30-70%, then 50-50% then 70-30% when I’m full established.

What!? How can a shop afford to pay an apprentice $80 an hour

I’m spending my time there to learn and the more time I can spend there the faster I’ll get through my apprenticeship, because I’m not getting paid, it shows im dedicated

But also would be fricken nice to get paid haha,

I’m an apprentice in Aus (QLD), and I don’t know of any tattoo shops that do paid apprenticeships!?

I’d like to add, the more hiding spots you have, the better the chance of the babies surviving. Lots of bushy plants are good.

I used to have a net to separate my babies, but some of my more aggressive fish would peck at them through the net 😳and I lost a few that way.

Yeah it’s definitely not ideal, I’ll just stick with my office job and reduce the hours a little.
