This is not a teaching forum, a fact which you should have been aware of when you signed up since the Boss has redirected everyone to a thread that threatens to delete your account if you try to discuss tips, technique or anything related to the mechanics of tattooing. This site is for the discussion of things of interest to the tattooing community, such as sharing your artwork, designing tattoos, aftercare, and other events or things that interest tattooists or enthusiasts.
