Not so secret anymore
Lol true
Must be Dumb. I'll be Dumber
😂😂😂😂
absolutely nobody:
that one guy: 𝓶𝔂 𝓰𝓸𝓸𝓭 𝓯𝓻𝓲𝓮𝓷𝓭 𝓿𝓲𝓻𝓰𝓲𝓵 𝓪𝓫𝓵𝓸𝓱
Nah he said it in “Helvetica”
“he has a way of making your idea better than what it was” as so does every true artist 🤦🏽♂️😂
ronekillsjr they’re not artist they don’t know . I just brush it off man .
name dropper and and enormous bicep woman made this video hard to continue
Ashley Neo they’re so annoying.
I thought the girl was funny hahaha
I appreciate great tattoo artists, but this makes me roll. my. eyes.
Cringy
These people swear this is the best they have ever seen cmonnnnn
Aj Peters yea single needle stuff never lasts. All those “microscopic details” aren’t gonna last
@guemichannel just say $2,000 dollars brody
nah this is skill
This video is so hipster, 30 seconds in a flannel shirt appeared on my body.
2 mins in a homeless man's hat covered my head.
🤣😂🤣😂
My very dear friend, Virgil Abloh, Virg, the Virgster, Virgelino, Virgilio. Did I mention I’m friends with Virgil Abloh?
when he called him virg i died a little inside
Iconic comment
Yes he’s very good....but there are a lot of tattoo artists that can do exactly what he does....for a much more reasonable price and a much easier booking process. He created this persona/fame through Instagram, but he doesn’t offer a finished product that’s any better than 100s of other single needle artists around North America.
Then please list some lol
@@robertnieto3742 you would already know pal. a true collector would know.
@@robertnieto3742 so many
the art: cool
the people: tools
Dr. Woo & Dr. Dre rich doctors without the degrees
Cocky Streetz like Dr Phil
I always admire fresh tats with delicate lines and details, but I'm always wary of how they hold up long term. My prediction is that fine line and watercolor type tattoos get muddy and faded very quickly.
you are very right sir.
American Traditional almost looks better with age
Yup. Bold will hold!
minimalist tattoos are tomorrows coverups
Ok, this guy is really cool. He's self-aware, and I love his vibe. Not a weird overly mysterious dude like the title implies, but someone who just does his thing, and well.
This video could have been done a whole lot better if done with less admiration for the artist. Just way too much makes it seem forced. Just an opinion
This guy tattooed Emilia Clarke the dragons she has on her wrist
Outstanding piece of video journalism. I’m a fan of Woo, thanks for the window into the hideaway!
Bang Bang NYC has entered the chat
Imagine being a very good friend with Virgil abloh
"What does the Saturn mean to you?" "Ummm nothing " bwahahahahaha. Stop adding meaning to everything to make it hip.
I find it relaxing just seeing him tattoo other people lol
They look faded already and they just got them! I guess that's cool now
I think thats just sick 🤯🤯
ppl that get tattoos like this just see the same thing on instagram and is like i want this exact thing, don't change it bc i have no imagination, i just want to post it after and show everyone how cool i am
or because they like how they look 😂😂
Video starts with a Virgil Abloh name drop. That's a dislike, that's all that is.
for real
Why? how? you sound insecure?
@@imani828 how is that being insecure? insecure to what?
I like his studio - very peaceful.
‘Designing the tattoo’ *gets the exact same bs tattoo as tattoo artist*
Thank you. I'm like srsly
Sean Yea bro I was like wtf 😂
The magician : his tattoos will fade after your first summer lol I could eat him alive ... @painville
Why would you want to copy someone else's tattoo? I agree with the other commentors these people are tools.
Stupidity
Single needles with a sidewinder. The man has balls of steel.
Dr Woo introduced me to single needle. Used to be my fave!! But now my fave is ‘cold gray tattoo’
not lasting tattoos wonderfully packaged
that was it?
I want to see that woman's tattoo in 5 years. It'll prob be more faded than Michael Jackson!
He markets himself more to the hipster crowd. But as for being a super talented tattoer i think he is overated. His clients talk about how crazy skilled he is with designs and the video shows him tracing something he printed out lol.
wonder how Dr.Woo feels about the lady asking him to copy his exact Saturn tattoo lmao...
You can thank dan kubin for them lines👍
“My enormously huge muscular bicep” lol wtf
Fine line tattoos do not last... Fact! also if im in New York i'll go to Smith Street tattoo and get a real traditional tattoo bold will hold... also fact
Big facts, bold holds
getting my elbow done at smith st tomorrow am. best shop in ny.
ALL LOVE❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ REAL TALENT❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Now everyone and their mother would be there... Good job GQ
Honestly, this is no different than any other decent tattoo shop.
What's the name of his watch? I love it.
I also love his anchor tattoo
does he sell those hats? theyre dope I would def snag one
Bro this guy is the circle god
Yup been following him on Instagram for yearsssss
No hate. Buh the hype is real.
I am 30 and just got into tattooing ... i have always loved drawing but never new what to do with my talent . I spent my early years starting and raising a family and devoted all my time to them. Now i am making time for tattooing . I am not the same style as Dr. Woo but that’s the beauty in tattooing there is so many styles , for everyone . I am working on tattooing myself . And enjoy it so much!!!! 😉
Inspiring as fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuululul
Epic
that girl was so weirdly devoted to dr woo
This is exactly why I became a tattoo artist! People like him are so inspiring and artwork is just beautiful
how do his tattoos look like after 3 years??
Single needle tats rarely last.
Miranda Summers yeah dont get me wrong i think they look very cool lots of times, but if they dont last...
They only look good for instagram
bad
Japie Kessels like garbage :/ i have a couple single needle tattoos of very simple simple things i got when i was 21 because i didn’t know better, i love them still but they blew out and the lines are not sharp at all like when they were a couple of months old. i’m 27 now, my single needle tattoos look like the ink expanded into the other lines as they’re known to do because our skin wants to heal them its own way and if the lines aren’t thick they won’t last.
I've seen prison tats made with single needle self made machine that came out better than..
I know it has to feel good being the best at what you do millions of people do your craft but your one of the best in the world
He’s really good but definitely not the best
"wont blow out the lines in the stem" my guy thats a single needle tattoo. Its going to look like Shrek in 8 years regardless
HAHHAHAHHAHA
It's a girl.
Literally any artist with a couple years experience could have done that lily piece. Nothing unique there.
Hahahahaha xD I'm sorry, he is a good tattoo artist, but the way everyone in this video describe him, almost like he is some kind of tattoo-god xD
He is good, but nothing more. I can name at least 5 better tattoo artists (or at least as good as he is) :P
Do you think anyone cares
co8539 straight up
Who is better? Genuinely curious
"Josh Carlton" look him up..
Just depends on what kind of tattoo designs you're into.
cool tatts, we'll see how they stand the test of time
You already know red beanie shops at whole foods
They’re so light .... 😭😭
‘Rolls eyes’
If this video was just Dr. Woo then it would be cool but everybody else makes this video nearly unwatchable
This only proves that most people don’t understand what good tattooing is .......
Gee.. I guess if I suddenly find myself wanting a really well done circle I'll go find this guy... on second thought if I'm in New York for a tat I'm going to Paul Booth.
All about Elm street tattoo best in new york
Fine lines and black+grey shading are cool and all and very of the moment...but let's see what they look like in 25 years.
people are going to end up just lasering them off anyways
He’s a Genius 🙌🏼 wish he was South Korea .
This hurts my ears... comparable to a 6-minute relentless cringe... thanks GQ..
I was like hmmm at "celestial geometric lines" but "angular spherical compositions"?!!!!??! c'mon!! WTF. Angular sphere??? And one says designing the tattoo with him when she literally copied his. And the other one says he can draw a freaking circle better than everyone. "His technique is very discreet". Like why do these people just throw empty words around!!!
What’s is the camo jumper he’s wearing anyone know?
so cool
Single needle will look great for 3 years. Lol.
Does he kno how to tatto on black skin to make the tattoo really pop
Thecomeup Guy qtna
If he uses color
Let’s be honest it’s rare for a black ink tattoo to pop on black skin
Biiig Spennnder it can be done. Especially if you’re as amazing as this guy apparently is.
Biiig Spennnder it’s really not
I didn't want this video to end.
what people dont understand is the micro tattoos and small tattoos with lots of detail look like a blurr 7-12 years later
Seriously he looks humble and says alot of things that are true, but first, this type of tattoing is not going to look good or even last in a couple of years, but hey, dumb people demanding this, so he gives them what they want. And this is what a tattooer should be: a service provider, with an ethical responsibility for what he should tattoo. But all the people elevating tattooers to the sky should really back off.
"Never start believing in what your customer tells you" or you`ll start getting hight and the fall will come pretty quick.
Some of these people are “hypebeasts”
I liked Dr. Woos collab with converse but they're $155 😒
His tatoos seems a bit light...will it last?
No
Exactly my thoughts.
Ozien Omni absolutely not
The smug is heavy in this one
I am a firm believer of “BOLD WILL HOLD, TRADITIONAL STYLE WILL NEVER FOLD!” and Dr.Woo tattoo style definitely not that.
Traditional is the best! Whether American or Japanese.
You guys should’ve left out Virgil’s friend. He ruined the video lmao
people be hating the dude and dont even have a tattoo by him lol. Yall keep that hating mindset, he keeps winning
💯💯💯
get it woo
Bold will hold
the people in this video that are championing him as the best tattoo artist in the world and such really must not know any other tattoo artists or have many tattoos themselves lol. especially if you need to ask someone where to get tattooed in LA.
If your in LA you go to Mr.Cartoons.
How those tattoos look after few years?
ID on his jacket?
Is is me or the music used is very similar to the minecraft one
What is this machine name
Why everybody hating on this video?😂
Whats his rates?
I just ate the best sandwich I’ve had
nice
shits gonna fade lmfao
Why is it a secret tattoo shop?
Getting my 11th by woo this march 🤙
Dr. Woo is a hipster trend. Like I mean I've seen artists just as good if not better than him. I get it he has a cool name and a different style tattoo studio.
Lol...omg...lol
i ReAcHeD oUt tO VirG
