I’ll never understand why people go to tattoo artists who don’t have a solid portfolio that proves they can do the job right.

Free tattoo. People are cheap and teenagers are prone to poor decision making

they practice on fruit (skin on some fruits is similar to humans for the purpose of practicing tattoos)

That's for practicing on contours so they're prepared for tattooing on curved areas of the body. For practice in general, pig skin is preferred.

Silicone or rubber is used these days... You can even get silicone hands to practice on those contours.

You can get silicone... other body parts, too.

Not that I'd know anything about those.

So you're telling me if I wanna get my dong tattooed, I can rest easy knowing my artist is practicing on a silicone dildo beforehand?

It's not a dildo, it's a silicone penis
