If you actually want to prepare and make your upcoming tattoo session much more pleasant for you and the artist, drink lots of water, get a good night's rest and eat something beforehand. It truly makes the tattoo hurt less, especially in the later hours, and since you're not wincing and tensing up, the artist has a way easier time. Plus you have nourished, hydrated skin. If I'm getting tattooed longer than two hours, I always bring at least a liter of water, a bag of fun sized Snickers (simple sugars and a protein source are great for maintaining energy and morale during physical stress) and refrain from drinking alcohol the night before. Get drunk afterwards. Your tattoo artist is also going to need sugar to maintain focus for that long. Making art is really taxing on the brain. Bring enough candy to share with the staff at the shop, assuming other artists are going to stop in and say hello. Since you're hydrated, happy and not in a world of pain, you can have a nice conversation and potentially make a new friend. I've been getting tattooed by the same two friends over the past ten years, so unwrapping and placing a candy in their mouth while they're maintaining a sterile work environment is funny and very bromantic.
Fellas.wear a fresh pair of jeans when getting a tattoo on your leg.i dont wanna smell sour jeans ya been rocking for 3days for 4hrs while tattooing you
dani it really comes down to how much you sweat, what you do in them, how messy you are (spills, like you said), etc. But 5 times? Fuck no, not for me. Personally, it's just too much. I don't sweat heavy or do too much physical activities but five days is two days too many for even lightly worn jeans for me.
He looks like Jenna marbles boyfriend Julian in the eyes and smile. The sound cloud comment had me lmao! I am about 75-85% covered in tattoos and honestly this guy was too funny!
Rainy Raelyn I’m pretty heavily covered too. 35 years old and still haven’t tattooed my face. Came close once and thought better of it. And it was going to only be a small music note by my eye. 10 years ago
All very true though I have always associated 'trendy' tattoos more with the 90's: Tramp stamps, barbed wire, tribal, the dolphin on the ankle and of course Chinese scripture... There's definitely still a 'trend fad' going on in the tattoo world helped along by social media platforms like Instagram but I also think it's getting much more versatile again because of the internet.
Bobby! I have a tattoo by this wonderful dude on my thigh that I am so proud of. Truly a talented, humble guy who brings great energy and dedication to his work. He deserves all the success in the world.
My artist did an amazing cover up on me with no laser and two large, dark tattoos. He initially told me lightening them by 50% would really open up my options, but that if I was okay with limited options, he could do it. I couldn't be more obsessed with what I ended up with. We turned it into a sleeve that's been photographed for a magazine and that he used for an ad. :)
I think trendy tattoos are alright to an extent, something small and subtle or hidden can be a memento of nostalgia. I wouldn't recommend people get fidget spinners & shit like that tattoo'd on their forehead but even something ridiculous as a fidget spinner somewhere subtle can be a reminder of a past point in time for people in the future. Get what you want, though I always recommend sleeping on any tattoo design.
Schwifty I had a tattoo idea that I thought I wanted from 15 to 18 but then, once I could get it, I just kept finding reasons not to. Now that I'm turning 21, there's another design that I've been wanting much much more that I don't think I'll regret.
That's called maturing mate but i think it's all about placement, if you had gotten the first design on your arms you might regret them, had you gotten it somewhere subtle and out of sight it would most likely be a personal memento of a past point in time. Too many teens these days are rushing to get their necks, hands, arms & faces tattoo'd when they wouldn't be willing to have the same design somewhere subtle and hidden. Just means they don't really want the tattoo for themselves, they want a statement piece, something to show off if you will. Of course there is the exclusion that they may have something very personal to them that they would be proud to show. I think you'll be fine, you come across as a rational & responsible person that has respect for yourself & your body.
After watching so many of these this guy has got to be the most hands down best one I’ve watched. He dosnt seem pretentious and have a huge ego. I can see my self getting tattooed by him and giving him a good tip.
3:01 - So if a customer comes in with a drawing, that tattoo artist will question where the drawing is from? Even if the customer jacked the drawing from the Internet, it’s going on his skin. Does the tattoo artist get blamed for stealing? What if the customer doesn’t want the artist to put his “spin” on the drawing.
I think he means he will not copy a picture of a tattoo that someone already has, not necessarily any photo. For example if the tattoo-ee drew their own tattoo, I think they’d be down. If you wanted a picture your kid drew tattooed, that too would be ok, just not an exact copy of someone else’s tattoo.
@@smoovejl Hah. That's funny cause I get a vibe that you don't know about something like "stealing". If you force a tattoo artist to tattoo something that's already on someone's body or in someone's art PORTFOLIO, It's called STEALING. You can have an art piece similiar or inspired by that piece, but none self-respectful artist will steal for your little salty ass. You're basically angry at someone for not stealing for you. My advice: Think at least twice before opening your mouth.
I´m actually getting 3 black roses tattooed in 2 weeks and not because i´m unsure but because it has a deep personal meaning for me wich, of course no one will get without me explaining because "roses are just sooooo mainstream".
no time like the first time! youre probably gonna say 'why was i even nervous' once its all done! if you have a good artist, youre in good hands and itll look so much better on skin once its finished. good luck!
Can we get a video for the Do's and Don't's for artists? like... Follow your own list of rules Show up on time Have your design ready and don't make me sit in the waiting area while you START sketching out an idea for the first time Don't reschedule on the day of the appointment especially if it's a weekday where the client most likely had to request time off from their work If you break any of the above and your client no longer wants to work with you due to your lack of professionalism, then you owe them their deposit back because of your lack of respect for everyone's time. Your time isn't any more valuable than theirs. Don't have YOUR friends over to hang, distract you, and slow you down. I'm in a lot of pain and really don't want to doddle while you chill with your homies Don't copy something you found on Google. I've legit found my exact tattoo on Google searches before. Don't catch attitude about a request for touch ups. Someone can follow after care to the letter and sometimes the ink doesn't take for whatever reason. If you charge for the day...TATTOO for the day. That's 8 hours. Not 5...not 6 ...EIGHT. Lunch breaks aren't included. If a workday for you is something different from the rest of America then clearly define that before collecting a deposit.
i have a friday the 13th tattoo! the shop i went to did it way better than how it normally goes they just had fun spooky flash to chose from and fun cookies and stuff no 13 dollar tattoos everything was regularly priced it was a great time!
I have a fermata, a musical symbol that means to hold a note out, tattooed above my heart to represent how music changed my life and helped me out of a depressive state. It looks like a crescent moon arching up over a dot. The artist before knowing what it meant wanted to remove the moon and just make it a dot. In music notation, a dot let's the musician know to play a short note and it ends a lot of songs. A dot also looks like a period which of course ends a sentence. That isn't the meaning I wanted so I explained what the two different symbols mean in music to her, she understood and agreed to do the original design. Sometimes you can't change designs, mainly symbols, because it changes the meaning of it. Now I also have the Viking rune for strength on my shoulder. You can't really change it. The only way you can change it is standard look or stone tablet look. If anyone is wanting to see the two tats, I'll link a photo to them in the replies.
I got a tattoo recently and when I gave him a reference photo he asked what type of style I wanted to go for and I said whatever you mostly do is fine with me and my sister got me at me because I “don’t speak up and tell him what I really wanted” I ended up happier with his design than the reference.
I read a post that said " tattooist are not servants". First off, anyone who gives service to someone is not a servant OBVIOUSLY however they are doing a service. So when you pay a shit ton for a GREAT artist then you'd expect respect back. I had a tattoo artist tell me " I tattoo what I want and I don't want your input, just let me do the tattoo the way I want". That was bullshit.
Same. I got one back in april and i loved it at first then i freaked tf out an hour after i got home and ended up hating it so much and now i’ve been trying to figure out how to cover it up or save up to help lighten it quicker.
It is definitely "a thing". It's not compulsory, like at a restaurant, but tipping is pretty normal when you hire anybody for skilled work and they do a good job.
I know tattoos can be expensive, but I view it as a service. Just like food service, or even massages, it's customary to leave a tip. That said, it's definitely not a requirement. All depends on how you feel about the art and artist. Do you 🤷♀️
I tip because I respect the time and work it took to get to where they’re at and they gave me a beautiful piece of art that will stay with me for the rest of my life. It’s just showing appreciation.
if I'm spending $100-600 on a tattoo what's the point of me throwing in an extra $10. That's like tipping your mechanic, you're already paying for their labor lol
this is why when i got my tattoo a couple day's ago, i consulted him 2 weeks ago, showed him the idea i wanted. let him have his creative touch to it. got there, we did a tweak to the design, was good to go and different from what i showed him, but was exactly what i wanted.
Absolute tattoo noob here btw. Why on earth would you tip the tattoo artist? Aren't you already paying them for what they do? I don't tip the grocery store... What am I missing here? Thanks for the answers in advance :)
RinRin it's a little different to being a grocery store worker you are creating a piece of art that you can take to the grave how many other services can guarantee that? Also when you work in a studio under someone else the take a proportion of the clients money it doesn't all go straight to the artist doing it.
Admittedly I shouldn't have compared it to a grocery store XD, but I guess I could compare it to an actual piece of art. You don't tip an artist after you just bought his painting/sculpture? Maybe it's a difference in cultures or maybe I'm just ignorant, but I don't think it's common to tip tattoo artists where I come from. A price is set for your piece, you pay for it and you're done. That makes sense to me. But still, think you for the answers.
RinRin yeah tipping is different in other culture like America tipping is like mandatory. But where I'm from it's more of a kind gesture if they've done the job well.
Yes, I think culture is definitely apart of it. However I gave my tattoo artist a tip because she custom made a piece from photos I gave her and I loved it so much that I wanted to give her more. If it was something simple like a heart, I wouldn't have tipped.
I don't understand why some artists don't want to copy a tattoo. I get you wanna have your own style and be original but at the same time this art is going to be on someone elses body forever..
I think it comes down to the fact that the artist, who created the original piece of art, worked for hours to give their client a unique piece of work, only for another artist to take that and replicate it to a tee. Personally I don’t think there’s anything wrong with using it as a reference, but for the sake of integrity and originality you should aim to create a unique tattoo for yourself.
@@whirlingdervish I completely agree. Especially if it's something you're going to have on your body forever, you should put thought and creativity into it. But some of the artists make it sound like a sin. I can understand disagreeing with it, but I guess I don't agree with totally refusing your service to someone for that reason.
kniter It's mostly because the older generation here hate tattoos, and that can really limit job options. Of course since I'm a welder, no one I work for really cares.
What are you talking about...older generation not liking tattoos.! We rock them. And the bosses hiring these days are younger genrration so don't blame people older than you.
Yvonne Bremer Dude it’s the older generation, not you maybe but I ain’t getting stopped by 20 year olds telling me I’m a sinner. People who are older generally have a bigger issue with tattoos, that’s a fact.
What do people feel about anime tattoos? I want a tattoo from an anime called one piece with the letters ASCE with the s crossed out. It symbolizes my love for my brothers as the character who had that had a deep bond with his brothers to the very end when he passed and idk that character stuck with me lot. Thoughts?
As someone who also loves anime, I'd say I definitely understand when a show has impact like that. Honestly people definitely have a stigma around anime so that's something to consider, but most people wont even know what the tattoo means in every day life since it's just the letters, and the people who do know what it means probably are fans too! If you feel like it's a tat you would continue to like, I'd say go for it since it's got good meaning to you and it's not such a blatant anime tattoo that strangers who hate anime would even recognize it
This dude has hella good vibes

Haha I have an insane amount of skulls on me. I’m not unsure, I just like skulls.

I got a tattoo recently and when I gave him a reference photo he asked what type of style I wanted to go for and I said whatever you mostly do is fine with me and my sister got me at me because I “don’t speak up and tell him what I really wanted” I ended up happier with his design than the reference.
I still have a tomagatchi, thank you very much 😂
I read a post that said " tattooist are not servants". First off, anyone who gives service to someone is not a servant OBVIOUSLY however they are doing a service. So when you pay a shit ton for a GREAT artist then you'd expect respect back. I had a tattoo artist tell me " I tattoo what I want and I don't want your input, just let me do the tattoo the way I want". That was bullshit.
The man 🙌🏼
Cool guy, you'd 100% trust this dude to ink you for life
Tattoo DO'S and don'ts - 0:43 "I'm not telling anybody what to do..."
This dude is the shit. Fucking love this dude, hilarious
Damn I really like this dude
"im not the dare officer" lmfaoo
I got a Friday the 13th tattoo...hes right just dont do it lol
Ashley G why? Sorry I’m just genuinely curious
Wendy Garcia it wasnt thought out, has no meaning and you don't get to customize the design. I ended up regretting it lol
Same. I got one back in april and i loved it at first then i freaked tf out an hour after i got home and ended up hating it so much and now i’ve been trying to figure out how to cover it up or save up to help lighten it quicker.
i have 4, and i like them lol?
Only get a Friday the 13th tattoo if you loved the movies and enjoy the nostalgia.
Yep ,this dude is chill as fuck!
"you know"
This guy's chill asf
Oh, Bobby...
love this guys honesty and cander.
is tipping really a thing when getting a tattoo? not sure where the tipping culture ends in North America...
sensemille it's not, you're already paying them a high amount for their time, skill, and service. but I think this guy is trying to change that
It is definitely "a thing". It's not compulsory, like at a restaurant, but tipping is pretty normal when you hire anybody for skilled work and they do a good job.
I know tattoos can be expensive, but I view it as a service. Just like food service, or even massages, it's customary to leave a tip. That said, it's definitely not a requirement. All depends on how you feel about the art and artist. Do you 🤷♀️
I tip because I respect the time and work it took to get to where they’re at and they gave me a beautiful piece of art that will stay with me for the rest of my life. It’s just showing appreciation.
if I'm spending $100-600 on a tattoo what's the point of me throwing in an extra $10. That's like tipping your mechanic, you're already paying for their labor lol
this is why when i got my tattoo a couple day's ago, i consulted him 2 weeks ago, showed him the idea i wanted. let him have his creative touch to it. got there, we did a tweak to the design, was good to go and different from what i showed him, but was exactly what i wanted.
Absolute tattoo noob here btw. Why on earth would you tip the tattoo artist? Aren't you already paying them for what they do? I don't tip the grocery store... What am I missing here?
Thanks for the answers in advance :)
RinRin it's a little different to being a grocery store worker you are creating a piece of art that you can take to the grave how many other services can guarantee that? Also when you work in a studio under someone else the take a proportion of the clients money it doesn't all go straight to the artist doing it.
Any skill that takes years to master deserves a tip. If you’d tip your haircutter, you should definitely tip your tattoo artist.
Admittedly I shouldn't have compared it to a grocery store XD, but I guess I could compare it to an actual piece of art. You don't tip an artist after you just bought his painting/sculpture?
Maybe it's a difference in cultures or maybe I'm just ignorant, but I don't think it's common to tip tattoo artists where I come from. A price is set for your piece, you pay for it and you're done. That makes sense to me.
But still, think you for the answers.
RinRin yeah tipping is different in other culture like America tipping is like mandatory. But where I'm from it's more of a kind gesture if they've done the job well.
Yes, I think culture is definitely apart of it. However I gave my tattoo artist a tip because she custom made a piece from photos I gave her and I loved it so much that I wanted to give her more. If it was something simple like a heart, I wouldn't have tipped.
Idk why but I find this dude hilarious xD
2:46 I don't want this guys personal touch on my skin i want the picture i asked for which should be his job
Yeah like I know what I want, don't change it?? Suggestions are fine, of course
Yikes..
I don't understand why some artists don't want to copy a tattoo. I get you wanna have your own style and be original but at the same time this art is going to be on someone elses body forever..
I think it comes down to the fact that the artist, who created the original piece of art, worked for hours to give their client a unique piece of work, only for another artist to take that and replicate it to a tee. Personally I don’t think there’s anything wrong with using it as a reference, but for the sake of integrity and originality you should aim to create a unique tattoo for yourself.
@@whirlingdervish I completely agree. Especially if it's something you're going to have on your body forever, you should put thought and creativity into it. But some of the artists make it sound like a sin. I can understand disagreeing with it, but I guess I don't agree with totally refusing your service to someone for that reason.
Why are Americans so against visible tattoo's lmao
kniter It's mostly because the older generation here hate tattoos, and that can really limit job options.
Of course since I'm a welder, no one I work for really cares.
What are you talking about...older generation not liking tattoos.! We rock them. And the bosses hiring these days are younger genrration so don't blame people older than you.
What Ekzpo said.
Yvonne Bremer Dude it’s the older generation, not you maybe but I ain’t getting stopped by 20 year olds telling me I’m a sinner. People who are older generally have a bigger issue with tattoos, that’s a fact.
people like tattoos a lot here but face tattoos, neck tattoos, wrist tattoos, they stop you from getting a job here
Finally a tattoo artist that is professional.
What do people feel about anime tattoos? I want a tattoo from an anime called one piece with the letters ASCE with the s crossed out. It symbolizes my love for my brothers as the character who had that had a deep bond with his brothers to the very end when he passed and idk that character stuck with me lot. Thoughts?
Go for it man. It seems to have some real value for you. I'm a huge anime fan so I may be slightly biased haha
rikdog55 get whatever you think you'll be able to love and cherish forever. If that includes something from an anime series then go for it :)
rikdog55 get it who the fuck cares what people say
Get it weeb!
As someone who also loves anime, I'd say I definitely understand when a show has impact like that. Honestly people definitely have a stigma around anime so that's something to consider, but most people wont even know what the tattoo means in every day life since it's just the letters, and the people who do know what it means probably are fans too! If you feel like it's a tat you would continue to like, I'd say go for it since it's got good meaning to you and it's not such a blatant anime tattoo that strangers who hate anime would even recognize it
Bobby seems chill as fuck
So cute
Thats Brutal hey you're cute too
Fell in love in 5 minutes
