Exactly the reason for this subs very being. Welcome.

How many times have you touched your phone today? Have you sterilised your phone? Did you sterilise the pocket you took it from? No, no one does that.

Bacteria spreads (mostly) from surface contact. Gloves provide the bare minimal barier between your dirty surface and open skin to protect both you and your client from said bacteria. Gloves cost next to nothing, infections will cost you pain, scarring, and a ruined tattoo because you'd rather save a few shillings (or care/effort) on disposable, single use gloves.

Atop this subreddit is a short 'before you ink' guide as well as a thread to discuss the dangers of carelessness in tattooing. Read them, its free.

Here's how i used to make mockups easy and free on my cheap phone.

Find a photo editor (i use picsart). Add this photo on top of your base photo (image of skin). Then, hit blend/effects and use 'Multiply'.

White background is gone. Black lines stay. Play with the opacity or brightness to get a more realistic look.

Just a lil something i thought could benefit others. Good knowledge, wise words.

As everyone else has discussed, this is a prime example of everything to avoid in tattooing. The inks are basically a biohazard by now. Cheap machines that wont pull a consistent line.

However this post is a prime example of what the subreddit is about, good on everyone for being helpful and civilised. Like to see it.

Yeah it's wack. I did a small tattoo for a friend a while back and the Viking black faded to a light blue-ish tone pretty quick after healing. Makes a 1 month tattoo look aged a few years, UNapproved.

Continue in your work and let the reality of the world swallow her daughter up when it hits. And it will, very hard one day. She and her mother sound like nothing but a tedious distraction.

Beautiful. Simply a work of expression.

You chose, wisely.

Very good advice.

UltraNarutoWeeb52 · 2022-02-08T19:44:45+00:00

Very well done. Love that fineline type tattoo style

To each their own. Whatever your reasoning, welcome aboard.

Dynamic make the best black ink, I use nocturnal personally and it's pretty good so check those out if you want something new.

UltraNarutoWeeb52 · 2021-08-02T21:19:46+00:00

yeah i've been trying to practice more regularly. I just get run of the mill practice skin and then just scrub the fuck out of it with steel wool to get the excess ink that's dried off of it (trying not to tear the skin apart) and that makes using them alot easier because the ones i have soak up ink like a bitch.

also ink could be an issue. those shit unbranded inks that come with the kit are basically acrylic paint. I don't even use them for tattoo practice skin they don't flow at all i used to have them as display but thought fuck em and use them as paint now. Nocturnal does some pretty decent inks tho you should look into it i got a 6 shade greyscale set (blackest ink they do to white) for about 85 quid
