Nope, he's always gonna say, "Yeah, my fucking idiot of a /friend/ gave me this shit tattoo..."

The idiot in this video should not be thought of as a prime example of all home tattoo artists. To use homemade products is just foolish and he didn't even shave the area which not only makes it difficult to see what you're doing at times but can cause in the very least, ingrown hairs leading to infection. He could have very easily purchased a real machine for the amount he paid for the shit to build this crap gun.

@MrElloco1979

no faggot we start by getting an apprenticeship not by giving people infections and hepititus

[poopalover]

what i dont get is why he has a copy of the tattoo on a bit of paper, so he can copy it on to the guys leg. not exactly a complex design

[MrElloco1979]

@spookyinnit I have called several Tattoo shops and they said there are few states that allow it but you need a parent or guardian and you have to do a lot of paper work.

@spookyinnit I have multiple friends who have been tattooed  under 18.

[spookyinnit]

@Artimicus No you cant!!... Regardless of what some retard tells you. It is illegal to Tattoo anyone under the age of 18. The law is there for a reason! ffs!
