Are there any loans for tattoo school?

Yes, like everything else there are schools for tattooing, but I havent heard of any that ain't a ripoff....One online school claims they can teach you to tattoo for 10,000 dollars.........Yeah right!!!! With no hands on experience you wont learn diddly......

Instead do it the right way seek out the best tattooer you can find and talk to him about being an apprentice.....It will cost you some,but I doubt that it will be anywhere near ten grand....And don't give up yer day job, it may take two to three years.

People go to Tattoo school to learn how to how to take their artistic skills and transfer them to the tattoo machine. This process doesn't take years to learn, it actually takes only a few days.

When you train under master instructors who is willing to show you the good stuff and how to run a safe, clean shop ...you can learn very fast. The only school I can recommend (having been to the school myself ) is The Worlds Only Tattoo School. I went as a reporter to several of the schools classes over a 2 year period an watched many students learn to tattoo very fast.

Some of the art coming out of that school is amazing! If you can draw they can teach you how to tattoo. I have posted some of my interviews from the school on YouTube.

Yes, there are legitimate tattoo schools available in the US. People should know that many people work every hard and feel very passionately about teaching people to learn a trade in a field that does not provide knowledge sharing. The main goal of a tattoo school should be to help people learn a profitable trade skill to help improve their life. Tattoo schools can be a blessing for many students that don't fit in the mainstream education system yet they wish to be productive members of society.

At tattoo schools, students are able to learn tips and tricks from experienced tattoo artists that may take you years to learn on your own.

Some tips for selecting a tattoo school:

1) Is it clean, and does it meet OSHA standards?

2) Do the teachers have an impressive portfolio of their work?

3) Is the atmosphere safe and nurturing?

4) What is the student:teacher ratio?

5) Are they monitored by their respective state's Board of Education requirements?
