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.
Nope. Wear a tank top and you'll be fine. I have a word under each of my collar bones and I just wore a tank top and then tucked the straps under my arms while it was being done.

I think it's better to find or come up with an art piece that depicts what the saying in words says. But that's my opinion. Words can blur under the skin over the years, but larger pictures tend to hold more over years.

Darker dots, yes. Lighter dots, no.

It's hard to give an exact time frame. It's not an instant thing. It took 3 years for your existing tattoo to fade to what it was when the new black was added, so it won't take a week or two for the two to match.

They can resize it at the tattoo shop.

Honestly, that's up to the shop. Some shops have the parent come in with the minor, sign the paperwork, and then the parent can leave. But, that's rare, because many shops don't want a minor in there, being tattooed, without their parents.
And, if you are asking if you can take the paperwork home to "get signed by your parents" and then bring it back to the shop, and they will accept it, the answer to that is no.

First off, it's not a "gun," it's a machine. Secondly, I'm assuming your husband hasn't been formally trained as a tattoo artist, so therefore, I refuse to help. Thirdly, there's no actual question here. Forthly, tell him to stop tattooing until he is formally apprenticed in a shop.
