I have done it but I had 10 by 12 foot room set up as a private studio and I had a traditional appreticeship. I am a licensed artist in my county where I live just sometimes it is easier to tattoo my wife and other family members here rather than my shop. As far as learning from home using webinars we have our apprentice tattoo on pig skin then we preserve the skin.
I’m a self taught but I have some art skills before I start Tattooing at my 32 year old also I try different Artists/shops to help me learn or let me work but I have no choice than do it by myself and RUclips at Home in one year of tattooing (completely safe and sanitary) finally one local artist helps me with the licensing process cause I prove them with my portfolio I can do it good enough so now I’m legally a Professional Tattoo Artist but is not easy building clientele from Home we can’t advertising so I’m waiting to get more clients to open a private studio risking it all for our Dreams!! Good luck everyone never quit for your Dream life !
Yes I stopped tatting years ago now I’m starting again and it’s crazy how cheap the ink is in the kits and how bad some equipment is but in 10 years there will be so many amazing artists
Hate to hear people say stuff like this because tattoo didn't start out with a government License. Artist came up with it 100s of years ago, hell they used wood needles for tattooing. Alot of good artist where at home tattooist back 30years ago.
I am just starting to learn, ordered my first machine a few days ago. I am a research nerd, and did research blood born pathogens, and hygiene. although i am totally new i just informed a friend who has been doing doing tattoos out of their home for a few years, that they did not clean their machine properly, eventhough they thought they did. ^^ obviously they do not own an autoclave, but at least they will disinfect and boil their machine grip from now on, guess that is better than before. 🙃 i looked up how long HIV and Hepatitis etc. can survive on a machine or surface. and although HI Virus dies rahter fast as soon as it is outside a human body, hepatitis and other blood borne pathogens can survive up to weeks in a drop of blood on a surface under the right circumstances. i certainly do not want to give anyone a disease. i could never forgive myself. so, fake skins it is for now.

I’m 29 I’ve taught myself. I have a completely sterile studio. I did my apprenticeship through RUclips
How are you able to get an apprenticeship from youtube? I thought you had to go to a shop to be able to get one
"Home" has nothing to do with risk. There are plenty of shady and shitty "shops" and "trained" artists that are unsafe and irresponsible.

I mean even ink from
Amazon could be fake it’s crazy
