The Original Tattoo Chief :
Gate keeping will kill the industry, teaching/mentoring people correctly promotes safe and hygienic practices

tattoo supplies should only be available when you provide a license and registered studio details. gatekeeping doesn’t make suppliers as much money :/

Why can’t people just do research find a good shop and get an apprenticeship. It’s not easy but it’s the way to go

Real question. Why gate keep knowledge? My mindset is, the sun rises for everyone, so I’ll willingly give out anything I know, if they choose to take it is up to them. also I never did an apprenticeship. But as a full-time cybersecurity engineer, I give out the same info, school/certs recommendations, etc.

Gate keeping is a positive move in keeping the history of our art form intact and respected. We must protect the integrity of the art and the tradition of being grateful we have it this easy because of the trailblazer me that came before us

unfortunately if you show original art then others copy it and claim it as their own so I get why some artist gate keep on their work or what techniques they used to create it

I'm licensed and I taught myself. I tell people if they got an issue then take it up with the state that gave me the license
