Hi guys I'm from Asia and looking for advice. I worked at a shop 3-4 days a week, for about 18 months. There was another apprentice who I would practice on and they would practice on me. After about 18 months the pressure became too much and I'm a very nervous person and everything was so overwhelming I had to leave. The boss took 4 machines, all my artwork and made me sign a contract that stated I could never tattoo again at another shop or my own. I said I thought this was harsh about the lifetime ban but he said if I did not sign he would contact supply companies to not supply me, the penalty would be $10,000. I know people might say why did I sign that and I ask myself that too, but at the time I was going through a very hard time mentally and I was getting physically sick. It's been 2 years now and I've been doing small practice tattoo on my friends etc but I want to continue my career. I live 2.5 hours away from the shop and was wondering whzt your guys advice is? Many thanks J Thanks

Here are some more pics in different light.

Thanks for the reply. Those thick lines are raised like they have a scab. Thats whats weird to me.

Hi all, Love reading the forum and watching the videos posted. One of my favourite was the interview with Chad Koeplinger. I joined to get some help with a tattoo that has been healing for 4 weeks now, I've been keeping in clean and using After Inked on it. Ive had many tattoos and many by this artist with now problems before. The lines are raised in 80% of the tattoo and they look like they have a scab. Any thoughts? Many thanks
