Tatted Mom
Tucson, AZ
Female, 32
I'm a tattoo artist who underwent a standard apprenticeship under a certified tattoo artist. I am an artist first, tattooer second, which means I put creativity and art into my tattoos, not just the 'you pick it, we stick it' type of tattooer. Apprenticeships for tattooing vary by state, according to the laws. I'm also a trained body piercer, as well. Any questions about the job or apprenticing, I'd be happy to help!
PLEASE NOTE: I will NOT price tattoos. Seek a shop for that.
You can always ask. If a tattoo artist is proud of their work, and wants to keep a customer happy, they will color it in. Their name is on that tattoo, and if it looks like crap, and you tell all of your friends who did it and that you aren't happy, it's not good for them.

The inside of the forearm is a tender area, yes. Pain is completely subjective, though. For me, the ribs is the most painful area to be tattooed, but I've had clients fall asleep during rib tattoos before because the pain didn't affect them at all. So, what hurts for one person won't hurt for another.
Any part of the body that doensn't get normal exposure to outside elements or wear-and-tear will be more tender.

Once the ink is in the skin, it's in there. There is no eraser in tattooing.

In theory, yes. Without seeing the tattoo, I can't give definites. Tattoos can be touched up and refreshed years after they are done, though.

I've never heard of Tattoo Vanish, so I looked it up. It looks sketchy to me; most of the photos look photoshopped, sorry to say. It could work, but it's been my experience with clients who have used topical ointments for tattoo removal, that they just don't work. I've never used one, though, so I can't fully say one way or another.
If the ink that the skin color is going over is darker than skin color, then no, it's not possible. I get asked that a lot, though.

Some do, some don't. Most tattoo artists make you put down a deposit in order to draw your tattoo, and that deposit goes toward the cost of your tattoo. It isn't likely to find a tattoo artist that will draw a tattoo for you with no guarantee that they'll be the one doing the tattoo.

I'm sorry?
I'm also missing a question...
