I want to dedicate my life to a daily practice that fulfills me (artistically, spiritually, socially), pays my bills, and makes a positive impact on the lives of other people. I passionately consume tattoo art every day, and I can’t see myself doing anything else.
Seems like no ink is going in tbh,, id be interested to see this tatt in 20 year..iv never ever seen someone pull a line so fast and i can tattoo and im covered in other peoples work....not saying this doesnt work...just gonna have to look into it.
,,,you literally should not use the needle shallow. You have to get the ink below the epidermis. Shes showing you how you arent giving a tattoo, just scratching a guy.
@@leahyvonne1572 im sure! But for the longevity of a tattoo, it needs to at least penetrate the dermis? Otherwise your cells will take away the pigment and cause really fuzzy/bleeding look. So if you want that part of the tattoo to be less permanent, go for it :3 but this is a problem you will only start to see 5 or 10 years down the road when you need a touch up way earlier than you should.
You are right I have been an apprentice but what I have noticed is the hand pressure should vary according to the needle type and the skin hardness and elasticity.
Sometime while getting ink you go in to deep and let the needle touch the bottom and it makes a hook so it catches on the skin be careful not to let needle touch the bottom of the ink cup it’s in when dipping it
Are you saying to use the thick layer of Vaseline to visually see if you missed a spot? I noticed that when I’m in good light and I have Aquaphor/Vaseline/Hustle butter on thick right after my tattoo I can see some patchiness I didn’t see initially while it was dry. Sometimes the blackouts I do as practice look solid but then I notice they’re patchy once they start healing a bit.
