Hello there.
I thought i had better introduce myself as i am new to the forum, I have been looking aound and the site is excellent, full of good info,
Ok about me, i started tattooing with a Thai Friend who is a shop owner in Thailand a few years back. He showed me the basics, and taught me about cross contamination (sterelisation) and stenciling etc, i was scratching on pig ears as i could not get along with the pratice skin..
I have now returned to the UK and have done a couple very small tribal pieces on my leg, But i have today landed an apprenticeship with a friend of a friend who has a shop and has been tattooing successfully for many years. so here is to the correct way of doing things and i hopein the future to become a good tattooist with a lot of hard work and time… 😀
