Tattooing 101 has been a life changer. At any level of commitment, there is a wealth of information Tattooing 101 is putting out, from free YouTube videos, the Artist Accelerator Program, which is essentially everything you need to know to be a successful tattoo artist, including shop procedures, Safety and Sanitization, creating your own flash, to actually tattooing, from start to finish on fake and real skin. I started with linework secrets book, which helped me immediately improve, then committed to the Artist Accelerator program, which includes video modules, live call and critiques, art nights, and access to a vast community that will help you no matter what level you are at. And the people at Tattoing 101 are great, they are real artists and people that are passionate about teaching others. I am currently producing tattoos that keep me in demand in my network of friends and clients, and am working on getting my own Appointment only shop going, a dream that could never have been approached without Tattooing 101. I am 47 with a family, and didn’t have time for a traditional apprenticeship, which too often is a dead end, anyways. With this program and community, I am actually accomplishing the steps I need to take to get my dream going, and I can’t thank them enough. They have even featured my artwork on promotional materials, and reached out to me, personally, when I was dealing with some health issues, just to see how i was doing. If you are on the fence, take the leap, cannot recommend them enough! Sincerely, Tattoos by Wildman

Tattooing 101 is the world’s largest online tattoo education platform. Since 2016, we’ve empowered more than 7,500 artists.
The tattoo industry can be a brutal place for newcomers, with many artists using apprenticeships to gatekeep information and keep new, talented artists from taking their territory and clients.
While some apprenticeships can lead to strong relationships and incredible careers, it’s rare. Most apprenticeships require hopeful artists to work fulltime for 2-4 years with no pay. (Some even charge up to $10,000 for their tattoo training.)
In many cases, “apprentices” are not taught how to tattoo and are just used for free labor - cleaning oilers, scrubbing tubes, and running errands. Combined with the “hazing” (verbal, mental, and sometimes physical abuse), many apprentices walk away from their dreams.
At Tattooing 101.com, we’ve unlocked the secrets to becoming a successful tattoo artist, giving aspiring artists the skills they’d gain in a traditional apprenticeship in less time, and for less money.
Tattooing 101 offers future artists an alternative to traditional tattoo apprenticeships by preparing them to excel in the tattoo industry without having to put their life on hold for an apprenticeship.
Our Artist Accelerator Program provides the knowledge needed to succeed both professionally and artistically, even for complete beginners who have never picked up a pencil or tattoo machine before.See more
