  • Hi i understand that the requirements vary from state to state but is it possible to get into the tattoo business with a GED?

  • In Alberta Canada, it's the exact same. There is absolutly nothing in regards to regulations, so you have to be very careful as to where you get tattooed. Do you research!

  • im in the uk and have had a machine for a couple years now, really want to do this, and thanks i will go find out from the local place :D x

  • depends on your state, i was 16 when i started tattooing professionally, 11 when i first started. Go to a local shop and find out, either 16 or 18

  • How old do you have to be to become a tattoo artist?
