In this episode, we break down exactly what we’d do differently if we were starting tattooing today. From learning how to draw, choosing (or avoiding) tattoo schools, and finding the right kind of apprenticeship, to pricing your work, specializing too early, buying equipment, and navigating social media, branding, and AI.

We talk honestly about cutting corners, making mistakes, getting criticized early on, and why fundamentals still matter, no matter how much the industry has changed. This episode is for new tattooers, apprentices, and anyone feeling stuck or questioning their path.
