@Samantha Davis I've been at it for a while, if you ever have questions always happy to try to help. :)

@Derek Zupsich do you have any photos of your art in the group? would love to see some :)

@Monika Hojsak Touch-ups happen sometimes by no fault of our own. What happens when people leave and how they heal is in their hands, we can just be there to offer advice and support. But, if you are finding certain skins types are fading more, make sure your speed and depth are even throughout the tattoo. With practice over time you will get used to analyzing skin types and adjusting your pressure on a per client basis. How long have you been tattooing for?

@Juston Freeman Straight lines are tough! Looks like your on the right track though with a pretty steady hand. Make sure you are also filling your needle with ink regularly, and not running empty lines. And you only want to fill your needle a small amount each time to avoid clogging up as much as possible.

When tattooing yourself: If you find that in more tender areas, the lines fade it may be you aren't going deep enough because it hurts. The Knee is certainly one of those pretty painful areas. Making sure your depth is even through out the tattoo, even when it hurts is a skill in itself.
