Feedback:
I did my first tattoo exactly with the help of a simple marker. At the time, I did not yet know that it is better to degrease the skin and fix the drawing. Therefore, my bird quickly smudged and erased. Now I already have several tattoos, but sometimes I indulge in temporary options. Sometimes it helps to see how exactly the drawing will look on this or that place. I recommend this option for beginners so as not to be disappointed in the future.
