That shit is permanent. You don't wanna take the risk. It only takes once. If you have nerve problems, you shouldn't be tattooing.

i understand taking their art seriously,but if they think being high could make them screw up someones skin permanently doing something they do for a living then theyre most likely over-analyzing their limits.either way cannabis affects everyone different,but its not like acid and its not gonna turn a true artist into a 6 year old.i bet more tats have been messed up by sneezing than interaction by cannabis.i guess poeple know what they can and cant do,but only if they try.

I don't think its an issue to have a tattoo artist that is stoned, I mean of course there r limits to everything, but I'm sure tattoo artists know their limits too just like anyone else u can usually tell if ur too fucked up to do sumptin properly. And I'm sure if they felt at all insecure with their ability to do perform they would say sumptin and not just be like oh well I screwed that one up. I seriously doubt they could make a real living if that was their attitude about it, and if u think about it they could screw up just as easily sober as they could stoned, cause for me MJ doesn't affect my hand eye coordination.

i only got one...laura croft.

Would you trust an artist to do your work while high?

no tattoos here but maybe someday.
if your tattoos look amazing than yeah of coarse i would trust him. hes probably high all the time so he probably did them high. most tattoo artists are stoners. if hes used to being high all the time than he may not do something as good if hes sober. personally i think being high can improve art and creativity skills. i do think it diminishes math skills though. i suck at math high.

My artist is a buddy I grew up with and we smoke the whole time were working on a piece. Usually have a couple beers too and he's a help of an artist. But like I said I know him really well and know he can handle hos shit while high. Might feel differently about a stranger.

Inked up here. If you've been going to him and he was high then what's the dif now? When I go to my guy we smoke and drink the whole time. It's bullshit hours in the chair.

i got alot of ink i use to go to a family friend for most of my work he would come to the house does great work he can smoke weed while he does tats it doesnt effect him but the problem is he is junkie the last time i got a tat from him he was halfway done my hand and he went to the bathroom for like 30 mins my brother ended up having to kick the door in he overdosed m brother had to revive him its crazy and i ended up having to pay double to get my tat finished so be careful who u let tat u up
