tattoo business

Tweet

Hello everyone! I am wondering if anyone here is a tattoo artist and have their own shop? If you do is this your only source of income? See my son is a very talented artist he is a teenager and his dad is a tattoo artist but he doesn't do it full time. My son thinks that he can do this fulltime and not have to worry about income to support himself and a family. He doesn't have a family yet but I am trying to talk him out of just having this as his only income what do you think? Do you think that he would beable to do only this and provide for himself and a family? I know that a lot of things depend on how much he will make like geographical area, competitition and all sorts of other stuff but just want some of your input.
