Tattoo Artist

I'm under 18 and I really want a tattoo but, my parents won't let me get one.
Is there any way I can get one without them being there in the shop while I get one,
if they sign the legal gardian form?

Asked by Gabi about 12 years ago

Honestly, that's up to the shop. Some shops have the parent come in with the minor, sign the paperwork, and then the parent can leave. But, that's rare, because many shops don't want a minor in there, being tattooed, without their parents.

And, if you are asking if you can take the paperwork home to "get signed by your parents" and then bring it back to the shop, and they will accept it, the answer to that is no. 

My friend is a very talented artist and is going to draw my tattoo. Does her drawing have to be to scale? I want my tattoo rather small but she drew it large. How does that work when I bring in her drawing to the tattoo shop? Thanks!

They can resize it at the tattoo shop.

my husband has a new gun..the black ink goes down good, but cant get the colored ink to go down....the well has ink in it...it lays down on the skin, but skin doesn't take it

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.

Hey. sorry for asking another question but would i be able to get a tattoo at the age of 16?

Depends on the state you are in, but even if the state tattoos minors, your parent or legal guardian will still have to be there with you and sign a consent form.

My sister has a monroe piercing so I can't get mine pierced as well. Tonight i'm getting a monroe look alike mole as a tattoo. I've drew it on with black eyeliner and it looks good. But, what color do you think I should tell the artist to make it?

Asked by Kristie over 12 years ago

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.
