The Business of Tattooing - Things You Can Write Off as a Tattoo Artist (And What You Can’t)
If you're self-employed as a tattoo artist in the U.S., you’re considered a sole proprietor (unless you’ve registered as an LLC or S-Corp). That means you report your business income and expenses on Schedule C (Form 1040)—and knowing what qualifies as a business expense under IRS rules can save you thousands (and a nasty audit).
Read moreThe Real Reason Your Stencils Keep Wiping Off
If your stencils keep wiping off, it’s not bad luck — it’s technique. Beginners struggle with stencil longevity because they miss one of these crucial steps. (OBV. you should be using Electrum's Stencil Primer & Repositioner - if you are not - that's your first mistake) 1. Your Client’s Skin Wasn’t Prepped Properly Prep is everything. Correct prep: • shave clean• wipe with a gentle cleanser• remove oils / lotion• dry completely before applying the stencil Any moisture → stencil slip. 2. You’re Using Too Much or Too Little Product Stencil Primer is designed to be used thin. Too much: it turns into a slip-and-slideToo little: stencil won’t transfer deeply Use a thin, even layer — almost invisible. 3. You’re Not Letting the Primer Get Tacky This is where most apprentices mess up. It needs to dry until tacky. Not wet.Touch it lightly — if it feels sticky, it’s ready. 4. You’re Not Applying Enough Pressure You’re not placing a sticker — you’re transferring information. Apply firm pressure for 10–20 seconds.Make sure the entire stencil touches the skin. 5. You’re Not Letting the Stencil Dry Fully Stencil drying is not optional. Minimum: 10 minutesIdeal: 15–30 minutesLarge pieces: 45+ minutes The longer it sits, the stronger it holds. Use that time to set up your station. 6. You’re Scrubbing Too Hard While Tattooing If you wipe like you’re trying to remove car grease: • stencil smears• lines blur• design disappears Use small, controlled wipes with a gentle cleanser. 7. You’re Stretching Skin in the Wrong Direction Stretching against the stencil can distort the lines. Stretch with the natural flow of the design. 8. You’re Leaning Your Hand on the Stencil Your hand oils break down the transfer. Float your hand until you’ve tattooed far enough away that resting is safe.
Read moreThe Business of Tattooing - Tattooing Through Pain Is Not a Badge of Honor
Tattooing through pain has been normalized for so long that many artists don’t even question it.Sore hands. Burning wrists. Numb fingers. Tight shoulders.It’s framed as toughness. Dedication. Paying your dues. But pain isn’t proof of commitment.It’s a warning sign. Tattooing is repetitive, fine-motor labor. The same motions, the same grip, the same posture for hours at a time. In other trades, pain is recognized as a signal to adjust tools, technique, or workload. In tattooing, it’s often treated as a personality trait. That mindset shortens careers. Chronic pain leads to: Reduced precision Slower healing between sessions Increased mistakes Forced time off instead of planned rest And once injuries become chronic, they’re much harder to reverse. Enduring pain doesn’t make you a better artist. It just means your body is absorbing stress that your setup should be reducing. Professional trades adapt.They invest in tools that behave consistently.They refine workflows to reduce strain.They understand that longevity requires maintenance. Tattooing is no different. If pain is part of every session, something is off.That’s not weakness. That’s information. Respecting your body is part of respecting the craft.And careers built on endurance alone rarely last.
