I'm a tattoo artist who underwent a standard apprenticeship under a certified tattoo artist. I am an artist first, tattooer second, which means I put creativity and art into my tattoos, not just the 'you pick it, we stick it' type of tattooer. Apprenticeships for tattooing vary by state, according to the laws. I'm also a trained body piercer, as well. Any questions about the job or apprenticing, I'd be happy to help!
PLEASE NOTE: I will NOT price tattoos. Seek a shop for that.
I don't price quote. It says it in my description above. Tattoo prices depend on the artist, the shop, the area you live in, etc. It's best to ask an artist who will actually be doing the tattoo.
Nope. Sometimes spellings can be fixed, and the 'u' could be turned into an 'a', but the 'a' can't be turned into a 'u'.
Ask away. Many artists will touch another artist's work, especially if the original artist is no longer available.
Probably not.

It's water. They add it in to thin the ink out some. Over time, ink thickens in the bottle, so thinning it out makes it cover easier.
Without seeing it, it's difficult to answer. You could add some tiny roses to the beginning and end of the date, which will camoflage it, maybe? That's a tough one.
Please don't use Neosporin to heal a tattoo. It causes the skin to heal too quickly, resulting in a loss of ink. Use A&D ointment, Aquafor or white, unscented lotion.
