    I found your videos a little over a month ago and they really helped me understand things better with tattooing and how to use my machines then I found your 30 day course and omg has it changed so much I have so much progress and it has given me so much confidence to become an actual tattoo artist like this is totally possible for me and I'm so pumped for it all!!! You rock!

    What I've learned the year I've been tattooing is everyone likes to say theres no set guidelines for tattooing then turn around and say what they do is the only way to tattoo correctly. Everyone is always trying to push their methods on you. this isn't the case there is kinda guidelines or a base method for tattooing but they don't tell you there's different ways of doing it and you need to find what works best for you.

      YEAH!! I’ve noticed that too! Like I started tattooing and I’m still learning , and upon my researches I always find “do it the right way” and they tell you everyone has their own unique styles, which is very confusing, like at the moment I’m still trying to figure out HOW I should hold my machine, like I would see a lot of people hold it differently, which is very confusing.

    This isn't they way I started learning as an apprentice I was sat down at a light table and told to start making stencils from flash patterns over and over and over again with the concept you were describing earlier from point a to point b with out lifting my pencil. Almost the same concept. However what I do think about your lesson 1 so far is its a more in depth look for the beginner on your outlines and techniques in the practicing stage which everyone will come to realize it is so so so important to get a beautiful perfect outline because it's your main foundation for the entire tattoo so you don't want any imperfections well done mate. Well done

After this lesson I have a question, I noticed you started from bottom and worked your way up to top of each line. Does it make a difference if one was to work from top of line down to the bottom instead of bottom to top? Wondering if that affects line work like positioning does at all or is it the same, one can do either or?
