    • Be aware of exactly how serious body modification is. If you are interested in it just to make a quick buck you should abandon your search for an apprenticeship now.
    • Make sure you have a portable portfolio of some of the work you have done. Do not come in clutching a handful of crummy drawings or photos of things you doodled on mates with markers. Also, try to have a variety of original designs you have drawn yourself. Don't rip them off.
    It's hard to give you advice, as I don't know how old you are or if you have any qualifications. But I'm going on some past experiences we've had in our studio. We've had a few total jokers come in with some beyond pathetic drawings looking for an apprenticeship. It's scary because these people are actually SERIOUS and think the muck they bring in can qualify them for an apprenticeship.. Tragic stuff.



    EDIT: Not trying to be cheeky but, if you want to be a Tattooist, you should really spell check your words. Alot of people opt for script and lettering when choosing a tattoo for themselves.
