I will start it now at 28 years old.
I wanted to be a tattoo artist when I was 14 but my parents did not support the idea.
Never even held a machine but your videos made me feel like I have a chance. 👏🏼 All my supplies will be shipped in two weeks, can’t wait to start. 🔥
Go for it!
I’ve heard “if you specialize, you’ll starve” a lot from old school folks. And maybe being at a shop 10+ years ago, it was true. But now that we have shops popping up like McDonald’s… it’s not enough anymore.
Building a clientele is more important than ever now, and specializing can make you cut through the noise. Plus it attracts the tattoos you ACTUALLY want to do, instead of the tattoos you HAVE to do.
This is very true times are changing for the better for sure
I’m really late on learning to tattoo at the age of 49 but finding your videos on how to do it & all the in’s & out of tattooing & how to do lines shading & the basics really helpful, I’m only doing it for myself & won’t be tattoo anyone I’m doing it for my knowledge & take my mind off my pain & I find it really good for a distraction from it, if I do decide to do it in a shop I will be asking one of my good friends who owns a shop to help me.
Thank You for your videos really helpful & informative.
Never too late! I’ve learned more from here and other channels than I did from any shop.
Wishing you the best from someone starting at 59 years young
I'm 47 and want to do it for this very reason, for myself
I'm 36 and i hope one day i will open litel studio!
I’m 41 and just getting into it. Been a mixed media artist all my life, so I’ve always done art. A good friend of mine gifted me my first tattoo machine, he and everyone in my life believe in me and I do as well, however my big hang up is how exactly I’m going to apprentice working full time. I simply cannot afford to work for free for an extended period of time. My local shop owner is willing to teach me but I’ll only be able to learn on weekends, hopefully this will work out for me, we’ll see
Im 33 getting back intonthw craft. This is what I needed to hear.
As a self taught 2nd year tattooer, this video resonated with me so loudly. You spoke on everything I am trying to implement in my life right now to be even more professional and this was a great refresh and reminder about what it's all about. Thank you for being so transparent about not only your own path in the industry, but the realities many people like you and I face while just trying to perfect a craft we love. You got a new long time follower, here.
Sorry to ask out of the blue, but (if i may ask) how did you start on your own? How did you not learn "wrong technique"?
Been following a while now and I just wanted to let you know that I, and I am sure many others, really appreciate you taking time out to put this video together for us. Thank you
No problem at all! I love being able to help so many people
Absolutely agree!! You’re videos are so refreshing
3 take aways from this video for me. It's more than just tattoos. The connections. It's a soul bond when done right. Self care. This is some great advice for anyone!! Your art reflects you heart. And AFTERCARE!!! I come from a medical lab setting. Proper cleanliness and aftercare are huge!! Can't wait to put a machine to some fake skin and develope this skill. Your videos are an amazing journey for the amateur💯
There is a lot more to tattooing than just tattooing. But it’s also not just a job if you love doing what you do
Go for it
I too am just learning the industry and your right about finding a place that has the knowledge and care to really show you how to properly work. Thanks for the love of art luv ya bro
you are the best mentor out there seriously
Thank you for your generosity! I’ve learnt so much from your videos. They’re truly inspiring because you share so much of your life experience and wisdom, not just technical knowledge 😊
That was really great thank you for the openess and advice, helps a lot ❤
The not missing out on life is so important for any creative career!
Perfect video to help guide a beginner, like me. This was incredibly important to hear so definitely appreciate the time you take in sharing your obstacles. I know they are already helping me on my journey ✌
That was great thank you for the advice
Thank you for sharing. 😊
great video, man ! tnx for sharing
Love & Respect !
absolutely love your videos and the book you guys have online. Thanks for being one of the few positive tattoo artists that actually help other people get into it
That’s why I do what I do so together we can change the industry
Thank you for sharing this B-Dog
Great video man.
Thank you for all the great information. Love your videos . Also love your Monstera plant
Thank you!
Here and doing it
Thanks For The Info…🙌🙌🙌🙌
i'm starting a tattoo apprenticeship soon, i'm so nervous but your account is literally a lifesaver :) thank you
Good luck!!
Thank you sir Brandon for your videos❤❤❤
Thank you for watching!
Thank you!
Great video, thanks. I’m an ex graphic designer and I’ve been painting ans selling my work for a number of years now.
I’m moving into tattooing and have been on several training courses now, I’m lucky in that I already have my studio from my painting work, so will set up from there.
I have found that all of the information that I’ve seen from Tattooing 101 has been so helpful as it’s so easy to go down the wrong path when starting out.
Thank you so much for sharing your experiences to help others avoid the pitfalls of tattooing.
Darius
Soon to be Monkey Daz Tattooing 🙂
Brandon, thank you for all the work and tips you provided. It’s helped me a great deal on my journey as an artist. You’re absolutely right without guidance you can lose yourself in this industry. Much respect bro, keep on with what you do, it’ll help people grow as artists whether new or experienced artists improve which there’s always room for to become the best. Great content!
I’ve lost myself plenty of time over the years I’ve learned a lot I don’t want anyone else to go through the same mistakes!
I really love your videos! I'm an independent nail tech and artist who loves tattoos and I so badly want to get into tattooing so I got a machine and the supplies. I also got your e-book and it's been amazing as well as your videos. Thank you for doing what you do!! I'm excited for this journey with your help :)
whats your nail ig page?
I never was told those things to that helps a lot
I also want to take the opportunity to thank you for all your videos, I think you have helped thousand of people optimizing their skills and get their foot into the industry.
I am thankful for your work and I hope you're doing good
You are a good man
I too love making fires 🔥
Continue to create good content

Sorry to hear about that and its awesome who you're doing this for. You got this 💪
Brandon u the man
Thank you I try!
Wow.
So many awful apprenticeships out there, 7 years to learn the basics is insane. Good advice. I still think that you should learn all styles and then niche in to one style because I feel you will really struggle to get clients at the start if you don't do every tattoo. Great video though! Love your style of filming.
what about the new robot black dot?
I’m a drummer and just watch this for fun. Question for you tho. Can u copy a stencil to make it smaller without having to drawing 3 different variations?
I loooove your Channel 🩵🩵🩵
Thank you!
Do you have any advice on getting a job in a shop if you did learn online? I feel like that's still pretty looked down on.
Times are changing keep looking keep learning it doesn’t matter where you learned if you are good at what you do
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
That times are f. Up can't get any place in any studio ..... Good bad studio no matter
Question: I was never super artistic, but I always loved art. I recently spent 800$ on a tattoo artist I know’s whole setup. From a Sol Nova 4.0 unlimited to all the ink, cartridges, gloves, everything you need to do a lot of sanitary tattoos. Anyways, my question. If I practice line work, and learn shading, can I still be a good tattoo artist?
100 % any one can learn art it’s just the want to learn. It’s not a gift it takes time and effort
@@Tattooing101 thank you!!!
I'm 12 years old and I want to go into Tattoo Artistry in the future but I'm nervous. How should I deside?
Don't worry about deciding yet. Just learn as much as you can and practice drawing everyday.
😊
this is kind of off topic but the plant behind you looks like it needs some food that's why the leaf's are going yellow because its pulling nutrients from its leaf's for food
Thank you I will say plants are not my specialty
That’s the light shining on it. Even the light alls have the yellow light on it. 😂
Hey I have a couple questions for you if you don’t mind
What’s up!
You resemble the guy from the show “baby reindeer”
💀 Please don't encourage them
Hello I did ask my tattoo artist can I become a tattoo artist if i cant draw? And he answer me "can" because before this my tattoo artist also dont know how to draw. May i know your opinion? Thanks bro
You are either a sagittarius, Aries, or taurus
Aquarius ♒️
We have enough tattooers
Go do something else
This is very far from true.
@@Tattooing101 the last thing the tattoo industry needs is someone on CZcams taking about tattoos.
Thank you so much for this video!!! 🫶 that’s exactly what I felt while I’m starting out and that tells me, that my intuition lead me exactly the right way
