How To Avoid Pi***ng Off Your Tattoo Artist ❗
• The Teacher
--- ito yung mga si akala mo mas marunong pa sayo. Yung si "matatapos rin naman agad yan ito lang naman yan". FYI ang pagtatattoo ay di madali kaya nga inaask ng tattoo artist na kung magpapagawa ka ay paglaanan mo ng tamang araw, oras at panahon. Ayaw ng artist na, na p-pressure or nirurush promise di maganda kalalabasan 🙂
• Openly Scoffing At The Quoted Price
---- The Barat One's. "Sa tropa ko 200 lang yan".. Kapag nag bigay na ng price yung tattoo artist niyo accept it with respect. You can also ask for discount sa tattoo artist at kung mapalad ka baka mabigyan ka ng malaking discount. Kung namamahalan ka parin then still kindly talk to the artist with respect di yung magkukumpara ka pa.
--- "Tattoo’s are a luxury, so wait till you can afford one,". "You are paying for the hours of drawing time, the years of honing a specific style and the fact you’ll most likely be wearing it for the rest of your life. So it’s definitely worth the price."
• Question & Answer Portion
--- kindly minimize questionings during tattoo session bawat salita or sagot ng tattoo artist sayo segu-segundong nasisira focus ng artist sa trabaho. It's annoying for short.
• Simple Doesn't Mean Easy
--- eto yung sasabihin sayo ng client na bilog lang naman, pangalan lang naman, linya lang naman. Take note, simple tattoo doesn't mean easy ito ay isa rin sa tattoo na nangangailangan ng matinding focus dahil isang katiting na pagkakamali lang matik obvious agad.
• Not Being Mindful Of Hygiene
--- To all clients importante po ang maligo before session kelangan malinis ang katawan natin hindi lang para makaiwas sa infection kundi pati narin makapag focus rin yung tattoo artist niyo. Realtalk, di makakapag focus ng maayos si artist kung amoy putok o nangangasim ka ✌️
• Rolling In With A Crowd Of Besties
--- Please lang kung magpapatattoo wag ka na magbitbit ng mga tropa/barkada o kaya naman bata. It's okay to bring 1 friend kung medyo afraid ka or you need someone to cheer you up pero wag naman buong tropa.
• Not Knowing What You Want
--- ito yung si pabago bago ang isip mga 10x tapos si artist ang papipiliin ng design. Make sure na 100% sure ka sa design na gusto mo bago mo i-suggest kay artist. Tattoo mo yan pwede namang manghingi ka ng recommendation kay artist pero syempre base parin sa concept ng tattoo na gusto mo na relate sa buhay mo.
• Changing Mind/Undecided/Not sure
--- ito naman yung tattoo session day na tapos saka naman nagbago yung isip sa size, colors and other details ng tattoo design ni client. Minsan nga mismong tattoo reference pa. 🙂
• Ghosting
--- ito nman yung araw na ng appointment pero disappearing act walang paramdam tapos bandang huli cancel
• Eating During The Session
--- pwedeng kumain pero kapag breaktime kung gutom ka na pwede ka mag ask for break sa artist🍓 pero please naman wag during tattoo session kase di magnda na naglalalaglagan yung kinakain mo sa ginagawa ng tattoo artist mo.
• Ignoring Instructions
--- ito yung mga matitigas ang ulo na client na may mga sariling mundo. Pinapayuhan kayo ng tattoo artist para narin sa nice tattoo procedure and results so kung ayaw niyo makinig face the consequences at wag kayong manisi kapag di naging maayos ang resulta ng tattoo niyo.
