what have we learn today:
1)Lasers, Lasers, Lasers
2)Don’t go back to the same artist for a cover up
And amputation is a viable last resort
@@christopherparks4342 lmao
Charles Fournier Phaneuf depends on the tattoo, they actually can
@Charles Fournier Phaneuf sometimes, not always
and egyptian goggles
What I’ve learned from this video is that laser is always an option
and the better one
and also, that you get what you pay for. it's worth to pay more for a better artist rather than someone's cousin.
Arabian goggles is the name 😂
Not really, its stupid expensive but some shit really cant be covered up short of full black outs
Or salt and towel
Lawful good: use texture to cover up the details
Neutral good: laser to lighten it up first
Chaotic good: cut off the arm
What about the *BLACK SQUARE* Where does that land?
@@taylorgreen9929 just tear or slice off that area of flesh and let it heal. It'll probably look better than that disasterpiece.

„Oh, it‘s a hummingbird!“
Me, squinting, for the next five minutes: „what the hell are you talking about?“
Haha it does if you look hard enough.
No don't squint blur, cross your eyes.
I did the same thing. After 10 minutes, I finally saw it. I wonder if people got these cover-ups done in basements. No legitimate tattoo artist would be this bad!
Lol says more about you. It's not that hard to tell
I thought it was obvious because of its long beak in the flower?
"The cabbages aren't covering anything up" high level roast
Ely Mahinay 😂😂
ngl it took me a sec to realize that the cabbages are supposed to be roses.
As soon as I heard it I came to make the comment myself..... and it was the first comment in the list. I loled twice.
MY CABBAGES
😂😂
The tribal one looks like they copied the original tattoo and pasted it 40 times
Look like the tried to recreate that shit on Microsoft paint 😂😂😂
And you can see how hard he pressed 😣
That tattoo was deep
5:35
It looks like two different people’s arms. The visible old tattoo marks don’t match the first tattoo.
Brianna Belle LMAOO
That one guy with the dark beard...My God, he's got the shiniest, most luscious hair I've ever seen on a guy. I could barely pay attention to what he was saying, was too busy looking at the light reflecting every time he moved 😯
Right?!
@@Emma-xd5fs I've been mesmerized by all that handsomeness 😮
He is kinda hot. 😍🔥🥰
The fact that they're out here like "yeah cut the arm off" makes me realize how screwed you are with a bad cover up job.
Just rock it then. Would never cut my fucking arm off just because of some looks. Also you can always just black out.

.... Is there something you've been waiting to tell us Aislyn?
Props for including the urban dictionary definition in the video so I didn't have to look it up myself
anxious alien right. you learn something new everyday lol
I know! I was about to stop the video and get on urban dictionary 😂

I read it at the same time I heard it
Out of context but that dude’s got some L’Oréal model long shiny hair and beard! Like damn not even my hair looks that majestic!
I was about to comment the same thing! guy's hair looks amazing 😍
I was was literally searching for this comment. That hair looks so amazing!
I just commented this 😂
Right?? I'm blown away by it! What shampoo do you use, my guy?
And then that accent.....
That older dude with glasses could tattoo me anyday he knew his shit
Agreed
For real!!! He's a very wise dude. Very creative. Not too many limits for him. ✌️
I am weirdly attracted to him.
Yeah, with the hummingbird one, they show one lady saying they should've just done a silhouette, then go on to show him giving a detailed explanation about why you need texture in cover ups
And he has such a calm attitude
My recommendation for getting a tattoo:
No names unless the person is dead or your child
Pay twice as much as you want. Three times for cover ups
Make sure the artist does the style you want
Hang the art on your bathroom mirror for at least a month before getting it to make sure you like looking at it every day
Tiny Valkyrie don't put your child's name on your skin either. They may change it - and if they change it because they're trans, it's going to make them extremely uncomfortable if you still have their dead name on your skin.
Date of birth of each child is pretty safe.
Teal Rose that is an excellent point. I do think there could be tasteful ways to change a name tattoo of a trans child. Depending on the relationship, the parent could involve their kid in changing or covering up the dead name as a demonstration of acceptance, but not every parent/child relationship would allow that and during the difficult transition it could be very painful for both involved.
Tiny Valkyrie I'm planning on just getting my kids' birth dates on my inside wrist. And then add to that when I have grandkids' birth dates - but I've been intending to get my kids' dates for several years, and I have no money.
@@tealrose3248 I am trans and my biological father has my deadname in cursive over his heart. He got that in jail and was not in my life at all as a kid after. AND the relationship we had when I got older is now dead and he doesn’t even know I’m trans and changed my name.

When the cover-up needs to be covered-up😂😂
@@johnwayne8494 ok
Just get a laser at that point.
That tribal coverup looks like something you'd find in a clogged shower drain
Everyone else “it’s a d**k” her: “a frozen turd popsicle” she’s so innocent and cute
Why do we see acknowledging a certain part of the anatomy as not being innocent? Can we finally get over our stupid prudish hang ups? It's a body part.
I thought someone s**t in a c***om

@@DreamBelief "it's a penis."
omg sooooo devious and risqué!!!
Why the hell would you cover up tribal with EVEN MORE TRIBAL xD
Josh Howlett exactly 😂
Needs more tribal
And not even a good tribal. I feel like he should have basically scribbled the rest out and have a black blob
The before tattoo wasn't an owl... 👀 oh.
Josh Howlett you had 665 likes when I liked this and I shit you not it went straight to 667 lmao I was so stoked to ypbe your 666th l8ke. 7t yut7be said NOT TODAY SATAN
tbe red devil one says MUFC for manchester united football club and i'm 90% sure it's on my cousin's ex boyfriend HAHA
please ask him
screaming link him this
That's definitely Manchester United Football Club, I'm a supporter.
That image definitely described their last season
That's the worst part of the tattoo ;) YNWA
the black square looked like somone slapped flex tape on the lady's back
The tribal tattoo at 6:00 minutes should’ve made it a badass looking owl
Exactly! I instantly thought it was supposed to be an owl and couldn't understand why they said it looked that bad before
Definitely a owl looking over its shoulder. Like just add feet and defined eyes
0:35 HE CALLED THE ROSES CABBAGES 😭😂
Taco Bella Level 10 roast 😂
I feel like with the shape of that tattoo at 6:33 (the tribal on the arm) that could've been covered up by an owl! It's literally shaped like an owl and has 2 giant spaces for eyes, feathers with some deep black in the right places to hide the tribal. Instead of that black mess on their arm.
Skysthelimit212 looks like an owl mixed with the Cheshire cat
@@dasiypotterhead3217 RIGHT!! I feel like that one could've been Easily fixed! Their only option is to get it lasered and covered
I literally thought it was a owl
I honestly thought it was an owl...
@@dasiypotterhead3217 exactly first thing I saw was cheshire cat, if done right I think it could be awesome
I'm so thankful for my first tattoo artist back in 1987. I wanted the initials of my first love which were also the initials of my favorite whiskey. J.D. with my first tattoo and he talked me out of it. He said I'd regret it. I'm so glad I listened.
9:09 Artist: oh you want me to cover that up with something cool?
Person: nah fam just cover it with *BLACK*
"You know what looks good, black. Black looks good" - how I live my life.
Unrelated but why are like 90% of these artists hot af? Men and women!
They make a living off their art work, their personality and physical appearance tends to be a reflection of their work.
Hello fellow bi :)
honestly it’s confidence! these people are artists, used to being judged for most of/all of their lives, and have learned to carry their head high and be confident in what they do
Chloe K Who isn’t hot?
@@OriasX exactly what I was thinking 😊. Who is not?
4:36 I genuinely didnt see the hummingbird until he said this 😂
"y'all need jesus" man he's sitting right next to you.
I love when they have guy aitchison on these videos, because he explains a lot of the technical and artistic theory behind tattooing, and how to make these bad tattoos actually looking decent.
Shout out to Nikki for remembering Oblina from Aaahhh! Real Monsters. I was thinking the same thing too! Lmao.
Reginald McKinney right! Lol
One of my favorite childhood cartoons on Nickelodeon!
I’m really glad she mentioned it, I was trying to figure out what that reminded me of.
@Guineapigs lmao I know right! She was just on Ink Master again the other day, and I was like WTF did this bitch to do her face wow!
@@kellykujawa89 Looks like someone punched her in the face then pulled her face up and tied it to the back of her head.
"You don't like it?"
"I don't think about it at all."

Man who's that artist with the long black hair and beard? He's gorgeous ♡_♡
th-cam.com/video/kmHkD4Dw8uo/w-d-xo.html
It literally says his name right in front of him at 0:39
RUBEN BARAHONA
Looks like a softer Jason Momoa
🤤🤤🤤
That hair. 😩
This man called the flowers cabbages 😂
I mean, that’w what shitty roses usually look like...
Thats what tattoo artists call roses that come out bad
That's what they are. 🙈 they are cabbage roses. It's a type of rose.
The guy whose whole head is tatted seems so f*cking rad like he’s so cool and nice I’d like to have a conversation with him
The guy with the skull tattoo on his face has the sweetest voice & he seems really calm and nice! I swear the more tattoos, the more wholesome a person is.
The facts that the one tattoo artist remembered "AH! Monsters!" made my heart grow two sizes. I adore you!
I’d like to see a coverup video of all good coverups . Cause I’ve only seen them when watching Ink Master and that’s the challenge. But I love to hear what they say about some that are traditionally better ones
Imani Surprised you never seen tattoo fixers, they do cover ups
Crazy crazy I have, I mean a video on TH-cam where they review good cover up tattoos like the opposite of this video
Love how they’re all confused about the MUFC tattoo. Manchester United Football Club. Red Devil is their logo 😂
OH. I for real 100% thought it was “MILF” badly written 🤣🤣🤣🤣
That dude with full face tattoos reminds me of the guy from Suicide Squad who's name I can't remember lol (Edit: his name is Diablo)
His name is Diablo
@@snorevana3556 thx my dude
@@snipernaruto no problem
Anybody know that dude’s name?
@@Adrian-xt8sb Joe Smith "Tattoo Joe" is the name of the artist with the full skull face tattoo
I didn't know that Jason mamoa did tattoos
After watching quite a few of these, it seems 80-90 precent of tattoo artists are either dyslexic or can't read at all.
.......percent*......
The irony 😂
Actually yes . We’re good at drawing, that’s why we do what we do , but people keep asking for stupid ass writing and we do what we gotta do lmao but you can totally see that none of these were done by actual tattoo artists , actually there are people making a career out of tattooing lettering only ! But you’d have to pay them to actually get a nice tattoo ! These ppl chose not to 😊
@@Haradamariana I mean, if people ask for stupid tattoos a true and good tattoo artist just won't do it tbh.
Yes, they also don't know what your kanji or roman numerals mean.
The coverup with the crying eyes is a railroad spike. Surprised the artists didn't recognize it (still a horrible tattoo though).
I didn't know they used dildos as railroad spikes
"The cabbages aren't covering anything up" LMAOOOO 😂👌🏻🔥
Let's respond to some good tattoos eh? Maybe even stuff by the artists here being discussed by their peers?
It took me a while to realize the second is probably supposed to be a railroad spike and I honestly wouldn't have if I didn't have one next to me. Wack
Just curious, why do you have a railway spike?
angus mcnay why do you have a railroad spike dude?
Answer the question, Angus!!!
Why DON'T you guys have railroad spikes?
Just to be clear, are you referring to an actual railroad spike or a person sitting next to you?
It’s real rich to see lalo critiquing these tattoos after he completely botched that veterans tattoo.
Yes!
bruh i was literally just enjoying the video and then i saw *him*
Can I have a link? I can’t find the vid
@@pb9611 th-cam.com/video/758PMDyFTlQ/w-d-xo.html its about 20 seconds in
That one chick with the blacked-out square can totally make a checkerboard 8:38
Or like a checkerboard peeking out of the skin. If that was done by a really good tattoo artist, the black square could work.
Woah, what is up with Shine's look? He looks super weird without his kappa hoodie and glasses.
Took me forever to realise it was him lmao
He's a douchebag! I think he looks better without those goofy ass glasses on tbh.
Tattoo artists judging their peers tattoo work! I’d love to see that.
guy is always so chill, it'd be great to see more of him in these videos... i love that he takes the topics in these videos seriously and gives a lot of unique insights, but can still laugh at it .
I just love these videos and the commentary. Thanks for the laughter
on the "we coluld die tommorow" with the stars no one noticed that tomorrow was mispelled too
All of these cover ups need a cover up 😂. Seriously, where do they find these tattoos? Lol. Either way I thank them for giving us this pure gold entertainment.
How could you do a coverup of the black square? Asking for a friend.😂😂
I think I finally get the hummingbird. I think the artist was trying to use the points of the star to affect like blur-lines, from the wings moving up and down so fast, and that's why those other smudge lines are there and the extra wing-looking thing. But it just makes it look like the whole bird is moving from side to side instead, and that for some reason it has two tails.
The guy with his whole face tattooed looks like he should be a character in a superhero movie
Joe Smith reminds me of rick genest aka zombie Boy going to Miss him though 😔
Instantly thought about i'm too
He reminds me of the Mad Max’s slaves 😂
Egyptian goggles. So T-bagging someone in the upper part of their face, right?
You lay one of your balls on each eye of the person
@@RiversideM exactly what they said
It’s called Arabian goggles 😂
Ah sounded like he didn't really understand it from the video lol
@@RiversideM that sounds like the equivalent is what I was saying.
I love how the guy's tshirt at 6:18 says, "y'all need Jesus"😂😂😂
"where are these people tattooing?? like their house???" lmaooooooshfkf 11:02
That hummingbird looks like Predator's mouth.
P
"But like the bastard so of her" I'm dead 😂😂😂😂
At 8:28
Client: you know how a window looks when you open it in the dark?
Artist: Say no more
I just cant even 😂 this should be a weekly thing comedy gold
Can you guys do a "Reacting to movie/series tats" and react to something like Sons of Anarchy?? I think that would be really cool
That tattoo at 5:31 looks like the ink was just lying on the skin and someone whiped over it smudging it all
John Wayne I sincerely hope you’re joking.
6:33 Ruben Barahona is always so calm and nice and explains everything without joking around. I like him. He seems like a nice dude.
@10:50 Maybe it's just me but the rose looks alright. It might not be done yet.
Yeah, I was surprised when they were dissing it. I think it's actually a really lovely tattoo, and if they saw it when it was done without a "before" picture, they probably would've reacted very differently.
"IM DYSLEXIC SO THIS DOESNT BOTHER ME AT ALL" IM AHHAJAHAH
I've watched so many of these "tattoo artists react" videos and I have to say, the music is so spot on for how they react 😂
8:24 in russian that means “you are my life” just in case anyone wondered
Istifa ediyorum thanks
I did wonder, thank you :)
“Im dislectic so it doesn’t bother me”
honestly one of my favorite parts of this was nobody realizing what a train track spike is
Lol right? I thought that was one of the more obvious ones, but it's good to know that a lot of people wouldn't recognize something like that.
The shading on it is pretty bad. It looks like a rusty one just pulled out of some mud and underexposed in a photo.
I'm definitely going to just get both of my arms entirely blacked out so Sara Fabel might date me
"might" being the keyword
Holy shit! It took a while, but that's Bobby Cupparo! He did two of my tattoos. Love that guy. Glad to see he's on the up and up.
RUBEN!!!!! Such a great guy! He did my thigh piece!!! Amazing artist!! So happy to see him in here!!!
My mom had her ex’s name tattooed over her heart in a typical heart with a ribbon. After they broke up she put a solid black arrow through the name. It was just... very obviously a coverup.
So just curious as I'd never even consider the thought of dating a woman with another man's name tattooed on them... Has she found somebody else?
I couldn't ever get over seeing another man's name on a woman I'm with and her not getting it lasered off just tells me everything I would need to know.
Breakneck well, my mom was a lesbian so it was another woman’s name that you couldn’t see through the cover up arrow. And yes, in fact, she found several partners after she and my step mother broke up, including one she was committed to until the day she died, who was also an ex of the woman whose name my mom had tattooed and later covered up.
@@kolimarie what a story. Hope they all lived a happy fulfilling life.
@@ClickClack_Bam I went out with a guy who had an ex's name on his chest. It was my name too. 😆

Майя now it says ⬛️
Also I think they were going for Malevich's "Black square", in which case kudos and not roastworthy at all.
2:15 I love how specific her description is. That used to be one of my fav cartoons.
Loving that Rush shirt, never seen that one and it's killer.
Do they not do the sketch thingy on your skin beforehand?!!! I’m in confusion lmaooo
Stacey M it's called a stencil and yes they always do that because the can't free hand it or they can mess up
That just leaves the question.
Why in hell would u get it!
Shit Artist: *stencils shit cover up
Cheap Client: Yep, this looks good. I'm happy with this.
1:36
when the test question says to justify your answer
“it’s like if the Loch Ness monster had a penis, because it’s green like Godzilla”
dude in the Bush shirt has the most luscious hair on a man that I have ever seen
To the tattoo artist at 8:27 who used a stencil for that black box. Welcome to god tier tattooing.
I'm dying with laughter on this one. Wow
I thought it said milf as well, but no it says MUFC for, I'm assuming, Manchester United Football Club.
I like how not one of these tattooists knows what a railroad spike is.
The AH real monsters reference was so spot on lol 😂
sarah is so lovely and my favorite artist i was so happy to see her in the vid 🥺❤️
Man I still don't see the hummingbird very well lol
"Do hummingbirds have four wings?!"
The cover up at 5:31 reminds me of when you're a kid and a you stamp the same stamp over and over in the same spot
I love the void stamp
5:10 I only just noticed the hummingbird 🤦♀️
Am I the only one who is more distracted with the questionable underpants pattern choice for the “Void” tattoo then the tattoo itself?
Just patterned cotton panties, not everyone goes to Victoria secret or somewhere more expensive for undergarments.
Omggg Shine is in this!!
Love Ruben's accent 😍
