see you have never worked at a shop u dumbass. if the person wants it they get it. yea i agree its a stoopid reason to get a tattoo but guess wat im not her and i dont run her mind. obviously she wanted the tattoo. hell she even said she had wanted it for a while but her reason for gettin it now was because her husband got one with out her knowin. like i said it was a dumb reason but she wanted it. so if you want to sstand up out of your chair and get off your nuts you can now bitch now ---- off.
yea its a good reason to be a piercer to get in the chair but my family owns the shop and ive ben the piercer for about 6 years now. business use to be better but with gas prices goin up and liven in a shithole town no one wants to spend money anymore. but oh well im garrenteed money regardless so im not livin just off commision thank god or id starve

Re: any tattoo artists or piercers here
 

morals? i wouldnt really start with morals about getting a tattoo. because thats just wack. i would never get a tattoo but thats just my beliefs. not theres. and personally if i was this guy doing tattoos for a living would not care what the reason was. because your not going to presuade there mind otherwise and also is rude to be jibba jabbin them.
got any sweet pictures of tattoos you have done?

Re: any tattoo artists or piercers here
 

I do branding.

Re: any tattoo artists or piercers here
 

fo sho. its illegal where im at but taht ---- would be fun to go. wat do u use. ive deen a bunch of people using nail heads and vice grips with a torch but you gotta steralize teh nails first. shits gnar i dotn want none i'll stick to my tats.

Re: any tattoo artists or piercers here
 

It all depends on what we are trying to do, The thing about branding is that the flesh burns for 24/48 hours after you've done the brand so it's a very small learning curve, If were doing somthing small and straight we'll use a 3mm piece of rod iron and a torch, but if it's something bigger we use some thick flat gauge steel, you wanna use something thats going to hold the heat for a long time, don't try paper clips and hangers that ---- doesn't work. We have checked out this new machine though and you hook your leg up to a ground and then you have a pen type instument and you press it on the skin and it shocks you and burns the flesh from the inside out, it's really nice machine and lets you do some very detailed work, but it hurts more then just striaght up burning. I'll post some pic's later tonight of some of the stuff i've done.

Re: any tattoo artists or piercers here
 

thats cool yea i dont know ---- about it but it makes sense to use somthing that holds heat.

Re: any tattoo artists or piercers here
 

were you from?

Re: any tattoo artists or piercers here
 

the device you are speaking about using the leg ground and hand held device is called an electrocautery pen just to let anyone know that was interested

Re: any tattoo artists or piercers here
 

No im not a tattoo artist and wont never be one, and also not against them i have friends who are artist. I dont see why you would put a tattoo on someone that you know will regret it in a few years for $45. anyways post some pics of your work, ill get pics of some of the stuff my friends have done.

Re: any tattoo artists or piercers here
 

also we cant control wat a person wants. look at ricers for an example you can tell them that wing is dumb and that body kit sucks befor they but it but if they like it they will get it. we try out damndest when someone comes in and wants a plain piece that every joe schmoe has already to talk them into gettin it different but 9 times outta ten its wat teh customer wants. we get to do custom work somtimes. we mostly tattoo rednecks and blacks and nine times outta ten it is something stoopid but we cant tell them that we jsut hint for them to get somthing different when they dont want somthing different we give them wat they want.
