Answer 4

id just keep working on your art for the next 2 years.

but you can always call around to different shops and ask them.

go to the shops and show them your art. its hard to say, since your only 16, but there may be someone out there that was in your shoes once, and feels your need. idk.

good luck to you and your art

Answer 5

usually not, the parlors ive been to the artists will usually just answer the phone. They would have to be in need of you, look for job applications, help wanted, ya know. But you need to no alot about tattoos! And my gues is you would have to show them that you know alot about them, because they would be trusting their customers in your hands.
