No schooling required. Buy yourself some tattooing equipment. Self-proclaim that you’re an artist, then go look for people who are willing to pay you money to graffiti their skin. Easy. Maybe I should do this too.

You go to a beauty school/course and you can do a specified course that specializes in it. It is very easy and should not take a lot of time.

You actually need to go to school. A major in graphic design will get you a job quickly because it provides the most qualifications!
