Tatted Mom
Tucson, AZ
Female, 32
I'm a tattoo artist who underwent a standard apprenticeship under a certified tattoo artist. I am an artist first, tattooer second, which means I put creativity and art into my tattoos, not just the 'you pick it, we stick it' type of tattooer. Apprenticeships for tattooing vary by state, according to the laws. I'm also a trained body piercer, as well. Any questions about the job or apprenticing, I'd be happy to help!
PLEASE NOTE: I will NOT price tattoos. Seek a shop for that.
Without seeing tattoos, it's hard for me to judge what would and wouldn't look right.

It's not, actually. I've seen tattoo artists do it, but it's not an industry standard practice, no. They have to ask the client before they do it, too.

I've never heard of Tattoo Vanish, so I looked it up. It looks sketchy to me; most of the photos look photoshopped, sorry to say. It could work, but it's been my experience with clients who have used topical ointments for tattoo removal, that they just don't work. I've never used one, though, so I can't fully say one way or another.
If the ink that the skin color is going over is darker than skin color, then no, it's not possible. I get asked that a lot, though.

Why not just get the bird? Sometimes, keeping a tattoo simple is the best way to go. Many people add words to tattoos, and it ruins the meaning of the artwork. If your friend had a specific quote that they liked, then get that. If they didn't, then just get the artwork. You'll know what it means.

What do you do if a guest is doing something illegal in a room?
You'll probably be charged the shop minimum, which can range anywhere from $40-$100, depending on the shop. My advice is to get the artist who screwed it up to fix it- it's her job, and her reputation, to do so.
Share Answer: 
I wouldn't advise doing that. You want whoever your tattoo artist is to create a design that they would enjoy doing, that they are comfortable with, and that they have already put the work into drawing it. Plus, not all drawings can be tattooed, so you really need to find the tattoo artist you want to do your tattoo and work directly with them. Take out the middle man. It can be an insult to some artists, and they may not even tattoo someone else's work.

The best advice I have for you is to just get on the internet and find pictures you like. If you like it, who cares what other people think?
