If your studio is big enough you could let them use a space and charge them a certain amount to rent that space.
So when they start getting work, you would take a cut from that for booth rental/materials (needles/gloves/ink etc)

How To Get A Tattoo Job?
Getting a tattoo job may not be very easy. A tattoo job is a skilled job. A person who wants to become a tattoo artist should be creative, able to draw, able to interpret people's words into a piece of art and patient. These skills can't necessarily be learned. Most of the time these skills come from passion and a sheer love of art and tattooing. To get a tattoo job, a current tattoo artist must take the person interested under their wing as an apprentice. The tattoo artist will show the apprentice what they have learned, how to make improvements as they progress in the program and eventually allow the apprentice to actually tattoo on another person. To start though, the apprentice will be on the lowest rung on the ladder. This person's day will be spent cleaning up the shop, running errands and observing. The Master, after enough time has passed, will eventually give the apprentice small tattoo related tasks such as finishing up a job or even starting one, but it will not involve completing an entire job alone. During the apprenticeship, the point is to learn the basics of tattooing which includes how to hold a tattoo gun, how much pressure to apply and how to tattoo within the lines. The apprentice must also learn about First Aid basics and eventually become certified in a blood pathogens seminar. Though the tasks may seem menial, a successful apprentice will be the first one to show up, last one to leave and show sincere enthusiasm. Every tattoo artist has been an apprentice, so it's about paying dues as being an apprentice does comes with a price. Each Master will charge a different fee depending on the length of the apprenticeship, but if everything goes well, the apprentice will complete the program, have enough connections at the end of it to start gathering loyal customers and be well on their way to being successful at the Shop or moving on to another eventually owning your own Shop. If you really want a tattoo job, start searching for the one that will take you under their wing.
