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.
It's water. They add it in to thin the ink out some. Over time, ink thickens in the bottle, so thinning it out makes it cover easier.

Tattoos can be used to disguise stretch marks and make them less noticeable, but they won't be 100% covered when the tattoo is done. Also keep in mind that ink doesn't take as well in stretch marks as it does on regular skin, so those areas might heal a little lighter and would need a second session to darken up.

A good, honest artist would. I don't do portraits. I wouldn't even begin to do portraits. I've had people come to me, asking for portrait tattoos, and I've pointed them in the direction of a portrait tattoo artist. Every artist has a "style". Some don't mind going out of their comfort zones, some stick to what they know.

You should not be playing beach volleyball 48 hours after having a tattoo done, especially if the tattoo is somewhere that will exposed to the dirt and sand flying around.
