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 don't need a college degree to be a tattoo artist.
Holes in your hand and in a lot of pain is not normal.
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.
A piercing is not permanent, but tattooing a fake mole on your face is. I'd think twice about the tattooing your face part, and get the piercing. It can be taken out later if you don't want it.
