furthermore why dont you children try to obtain an apprenticeship to learn the proper way! ask your local shops about that.

[hambone99976]

people need to keep in mind the health issues of tattooing. if you dont know how to keep your equipment sterile then learn something about that. check with your local state health laws and you will find that it is against state laws to tattoo without a operators license. you cannot obtain one of those if you do not work for a facility or own a facility. so once all these t.v. show addicts learn how to keep from giving everyone staph and hep c the world willo be better. learn and stop ignorance!

@stupidcircusclown because that is reserved for the people who put their blood sweat and tears into this field. not idiots in their house trying to make a quick buck on a tradition they could care nothing about.
