There was no need for that. I was asking genuine questions. The risks of tattooing in a home environment are much higher than in a professional environment, even when things are done "safely".

I hope you are using decent medical-grade disinfectant. Even though it still won't be as good as tattooing in a more sterile professional environment.
However, I've said my piece. I wish you well with it. Getting an apprenticeship can be the tricky part, depending on where you are willing to live/work.
