Tattoo Color Packing Tips For Beginners! In this video I share with you the top 7 mistakes made when color packing. If your color tattoos don't pop on the skin or you struggle to pack nice solid color then these tattoo tips are an absolute must see for beginners!
I start by covering the top 7 color packing mistakes, showing you how to fix each one and then I apply everything we've learned in the video and perform a live color tattoo deliberately making the mistakes on one side of it and then fixing the mistakes on the other, so the beginner tattooist can actually see exactly what mistakes they're making!

I didn't really have a traditional apprenticeship so what I worked on for pretty much 2 years was lettering and lining, then moved into B&G shading. I've ALWAYS had a hard time with color and hated packing yellows, pinks, oranges...you know...anyway this has helped me immensely! I was never taught the simple movement of using your elbow instead of your wrist. I eventually after getting a saturated color piece by someone that's been tattooing for 25 years, asked him a bunch of questions and he did teach me a lot and that gave me more confidence. But to find your "own way" to color pack using these techniques...thank you so much for putting out this video. I wish I would have come across this 5 years ago!

Hi Jono! As usual really detailed video and really well explained🙏. There is something else to be added - fast running machine makes vacuum into the tip of the cartridge and prevent the good flow of the Ink. I've seen many artists running their machines quick and then having always troubles with time, quality and results.

I need a black and grey soft shading video. I feel like I never can get it smooth enough and I want to do portraits. I would love if you could demonstrate the same way with a portrait or flower even, in black and grey. I feel like my black and grey can be choppy or scratchy, I get nervous about overworking the skin and maybe am too timid

It's so funny to me because I've learned these things, but I notice I go back to the bad technique sometimes because I still struggle with the idea of causing pain. I guess it's just something I'll have to get over, but I'm hesitant to stretch the skin if my fingers are pulling on areas I've already tattooed (because I know it'll be irritating), and I struggle to go slow and stay in the sameish area for awhile because I feel like I'm hurting them, especially if I see the blood. I think I just have to accept that my clients signed up for this, and it's okay 😅
