That girl that said she got pissed when other people finished her in progress tattoos when she moved is ridiculous. Do you expect your customers with half done tattoos to wait months and months until you come back to visit or fork out more cash to travel to where you moved? Nobody wants to walk around with an unfinished tattoo for half a year.
sometimes clients flake on having their tattoos finished and you dont hear from them for ages. You can give months notice to people you may be moving and they still make no attempt to have things finished. There all also people who just get half way through an awesome piece then do something dumb like letting their cousins housemate finish it at home in their basement or whatever. ..... then come back to you begging to fix it. It goes both ways - you put 110% into a piece for someone only to have your artwork completed by someone else - yeah, it can be disheartening. Usually more hours go into designing a piece than actually tattooing it, so it is a shame when another artist gets to complete something that wasnt theirs 🤷♀️
I had an outline done and the artist had suddenly moved 300+ miles away with barely a notice and they were gone for 2 years so I personally decided to have an old co-worker of theirs finish because I wanted to support the shop and for all I knew at that point the artist was never coming back and I didn't want to travel all that way for the same colors I got from the ex coworker. The original artist came back for a weekend and I met up with them and they were PISSED! Like dude I waited 2 years for you with no response fuck off
@@flybeep1661 I am a person without a single tattoo with meaning on my body, and I still perfectly understood what the girl was saying. Maybe because I am not trying to be rude, but that's just a possibility
"If you don't have the patience to wait on me then I don't think I really want you as a client anyways" Here's the thing. You moved out of your hometown in the middle of doing their pieces. How about you don't start their pieces when you know you're going to move during their piece? You deserved to have your clients leave on you.
4:19 "If they don't pay me, it's mine" I wonder how often he enforces that? I can just imagine a trophy cabinet at the back of the shop displaying all the sliced off tattoos lol.
The people who let others do what they want with their body are really cool. I don’t really like the idea of tattoo artists coming after me if i had a change of mind
If you spend upwards of 8 hours just on the tattoo machine, nevermind all the back and forth on the specifics of the design, I can see feeling frustration and a sense of pride in your work and that work being destroyed.
The my body my choice thing in general is a stupid idea, with tattoos if you buy it you can wear it proudly or remove it or cover it if you choose, obvious some artist feel some type of way but that’s life
@@rieskimo The client also spent 8 hours in the chair and spend hundreds or thousands of dollars, so if they're not happy with it they have every right. It's not always about the art itself either, sometimes people change their aesthetics and interests. Should that person have to live with a piece that they don't like anymore and look at it every day just to spare some dude's feelings?
It's really not about "letting" a client do what they want with their body, duh no one is literally going to stop them. However, this channel is a platform for the artists to express their emotions about the topic and they have the right to feel some way about it. And you don't have to like it. That's the beauty of opinions.
2:45. I thought that was incredibly obnoxious of her. Is she seriously complaining that a client didn’t want to wait who-knows-how-long with an unfinished tattoo when she moved away, and so had it finished by someone else??
Feel like it’s one of those things where she’s been successful as an artist for so long and probably has had so many filled books that now she thinks whoever she tattoos owes her because WHO would change MY tattoo? Shitty, pretentious posh attitude
So Morgan chenoa, she moves away and is upset that people finished up their tattoos with other artists. Umm how far did she move? Why didn't she finish up her own work? Based on her statement I wouldn't want to get work from her.
When people do research, they choose an artist because they like their style. Some people who are actually invested in this travle across the country to visit a specific artist. Having someone finish a tattoo just because they moved is just an obvious sign that they went to that artist out of convenience.
@@spoiledmilkiez5421 depending on the size and detail of a tattoo, you may end up having to let it be unfinished for a while, so your skin can rest between sessions. There's been a lot of people during the shutdowns, that have had to walk around with unfinished tattoos because shops have been closed.
@@miacooley4661 I'm not travelling just for a tattoo artist. It's ridiculous to expect people to add the expense of travel. Also, it doesn't mean somebody went to you out of convenience, it means they went to you because you were local and did what they wanted.
@@miacooley4661 an artist out of convenience? Maybe they don’t have a ton of cash to travel to get a specific artist. Maybe they’re local and they enjoyed the artists’ work. You’re drawing a really ignorant conclusion, as if everyone can just make this shit happen because some people have the money to do so.
2:40 how long does she expect clients to wait? If you can't understand that you're the one inconveniencing the client, not the other way around, then I don't really want you as an artist. And it sounds like her clients agree.
The best artists have the long wait times. So you can get one sooner but not to the quality of the artist you have to wait for. Which is better the artist you can get anytime because they have open spots or the artist who you cant get for months because their schedule is full. Also ppl travel to get tattoos from top artists
@@HGQjazz I had an issue with an artist suddenly moving on me before the final session and after two years of no response from them I decided on my own to have their old co-worker with a similar style finish it and it was glorious but the person took such offense that I couldnt wait another 6 months before they would come back for a weekend and it's like 'dude you if ignored me for two years and you only decide to hit me up because I decided to finish what you didn't?'
and @Morgan Chenoa you move away and expect clients to just pause their own ink work for whenever you may or may not show up again? You do not gain any ownership or rights to our bodies when you lay down some partial work. If you move away and I decide to move on to another artist then that is my prerogative and, as long as you were paid for services rendered before you bailed on your clients mid-work, you have absolutely no right to be cross with a client over that... That shows a negative business mindset towards clientele as you do not own us... How about do not start a piece on someone you cannot finish before you move away?? pretty easy solution so us peasant clients do not hurt your fragile ego if you up and move away. I used to want to get one of your pieces on my travels but not with that kind of ego.
That was my thought. Maybe I get it if she like just moved one town over or maybe like only an hour away. But if I live in like Portland Maine, and you move to like Moscow, and have no intent on coming back besides maybe holidays. Am I supposed to just wait for you a whole year or 3 ? Nah fam.
Yeah, I didn’t get her response. No artist wants to see their work finished by someone else. That is understandable. But you have to take the circumstances of WHY they had someone else finish your work. Sometimes, it’s necessary. And if she’s taking her sweet time trying to get back to me, or one of us has to move a considerable distance, do tell why I still need to “wait” for you? I’d like for her to elaborate on her opinion.
I have a tattoo I may be planning to cover up. It's a forget-me-not I got for my grandma, who despite being very against tattoos can appreciate a nice floral one.. However, we had a HUGE falling out after I broke contact with some abusive relatives (Grandma was very much the 'just suffer in silence when you're abused' type of person and wanted me to do the exact same), and it made me regret getting a meaningful tattoo for someone I thought knew me better than anyone else (she came up with the idea, and even went as far as to sit next to me as I got it). I plan to get it covered by the same artist who put the flower there, though I'll have to wait for a bit due to the corona virus and money-related issues. I get that as an artist, seeing your work get covered up sucks. I get that sometimes you may get pissed a client didn't tell you their concerns and I get generally feeling disapointed your work is being undone, but at the end of the day, the only one who decides what to do with a body is the owner of said body.
Why is this even a discussion. Client paid for it, its there skin they can do whatever they want. Its like saying you cant eat the cake you just bought because I made it.
Tattoos are just like clothes. You wear them. And sometimes you change or your style changes. You think something is gonna look good and when you put it on you don't like it. Or sometimes you just find better looking clothes.
So Morgan chenoa thinks that ppl should wait around for her to get their tattoo finished?? 🤨 damn girl calm down with the ego. There’s a difference if someone goes out of town or takes off for a month or something but to just aimlessly sit around and hope someone comes back... uh yeah, NO!
I shouldn’t be watching this rn, my skin is literally CRYING OUT for another tattoo but god knows when tattoo shops are gonna be open again, very sad times
I really like this episode, everybody had more serious thought out answers. I think it would be nice to see other types of art from the people. The murals look so pretty
I don’t know...if you leave town while you’re working on my tattoo and I’m not sure when I can get it finished with you, I can’t blame someone for getting it finished by someone else. Unless they knew she was leaving...
I never minded clients removing or covering my work. They paid me for it. Their body. If they don't like it it's their business. Never liked the arrogance of many artists 🤷♂️
The way I see it is the client also spent just as long in the chair and spent hundreds or thousands of dollars, so if they're not happy with it they have every right to change it.

Been going to the same artist for so long. Covered my first tattoo that he did over a decade ago with my sleeve and I’m sure I have a few other old ones he’d love to cover up.
I'm not a tattoo artist but I restore and refinish furniture and I feel the same way at times when a customer posts a pic of the piece I finished because they loved it, I'll look at it and say I could've done more.
It would be nice some tattoos photos. Cuz i don't really care who is in it and what they look like but if i see their work i would probably look them up
I always get such a lovely vibe from Sara Fabel - I would want to get a tattoo from Sara whatever the design, because I think it'd just be such a heartening and uplifting experience. ❤
I'm very happy to hear that all these people are good artists, but just in skill but mindset, they're proud of their work or the person's interests, life, or whatever might change. I personally like working with my hands, it I built at that for someone in 10 years down the line the deck it wears down or they want to change the look of their house I'm not going to take it personally. Eventually everything will change
I can appreciate that the Tattoo Artists love the finished product of their labour but once that machine is off and cash has exchanged hands that piece becomes my property by law. This art just happens to be imprinted fairly permanently in my skin and a part of my body as well as spirit and who I am overall. I have tattoos all over and, with the exception of the Hotdog and Cupcake on my left shin that were done as part of a Christmas charity event [Toys 4 Tats] I put months and months, in one case years, of careful thought and reflection into where and what I want Inked on my body. Unfortunately, the second tattoo I ever got will be falling victim to the full right arm sleeve my current Artist and I have designed in collaboration and laid down a bunch of line work. I am okay covering that upper right arm ink up with the shoulder blade to hand sleeve because it was my 2nd piece (I'm 32), is fading, and to be frank is not very good when compared to all my other work. I'm not trying to disrespect the artist who did it but she was still pretty new, just out of apprenticeship, and it just does not hold up to the caliber of all my other work I had before and after it. The cash changed hands so it is mine now anyway. my skin; my choice. it is a pretty cut and dry issue.
Lol when the Christy Mack artist was trying to explain why his tattoo was covered he sure did stumble and stutter while saying it didnt bother him...lol
Shit, I have an outline, it's gotta be 26-27, more? years old. Dude was a friend, things were said, no reason to air laundry that old. He gets handed a tattoo gun I get his first tattoo. I think it will stay as is. Not getting it removed, not getting it finished. Just there. A reminder.
you can really see the different levels of maturity in the artist. nothing wrong with some but it seems like a similar progression. The older more experienced artists all kinda had the sane feelings.
When that baby shows up every now and then it makes my day
If you go on his insta you’ll see loads of the baby

Not all cover ups are for bad tattoos. It could be a great tattoo still, but because you've changed over time the tattoo doesn't mean the same.

The tattoo doesn't belong to you, the art does.
So cute! It's Paul's mini me! Spitting image of daddy. ❤❤❤
The way I see it is the client also spent just as long in the chair and spent hundreds or thousands of dollars, so if they're not happy with it they have every right to change it. And it's not always about the quality of the art itself either, sometimes people change their aesthetics and interests. Should that person have to live with a piece that they don't like anymore and look at it every day just to spare some dude's feelings? I don't think so.

The guy with the sunglasses and beanie and the guy with the Hawaiian shirt are just the best. I love their rapport
I really enjoy these artists personalities these people are very down to earth not stuck up and hateful that's nice to see now days
Love that burly, huge Kiwi and his tiny mini-me baby. Both the baby and the puppy are so smol and perfect they don’t seem real.
Completely agree but he's definitely not kiwi lol
😄 The last girl who had her great work covered up because the dude’s clients wanted to see her instead.

I'm very happy to hear that all these people are good artists, but just in skill but mindset, they're proud of their work or the person's interests, life, or whatever might change.
I personally like working with my hands, it I built at that for someone in 10 years down the line the deck it wears down or they want to change the look of their house I'm not going to take it personally. Eventually everything will change
I can appreciate that the Tattoo Artists love the finished product of their labour but once that machine is off and cash has exchanged hands that piece becomes my property by law. This art just happens to be imprinted fairly permanently in my skin and a part of my body as well as spirit and who I am overall. I have tattoos all over and, with the exception of the Hotdog and Cupcake on my left shin that were done as part of a Christmas charity event [Toys 4 Tats] I put months and months, in one case years, of careful thought and reflection into where and what I want Inked on my body. Unfortunately, the second tattoo I ever got will be falling victim to the full right arm sleeve my current Artist and I have designed in collaboration and laid down a bunch of line work. I am okay covering that upper right arm ink up with the shoulder blade to hand sleeve because it was my 2nd piece (I'm 32), is fading, and to be frank is not very good when compared to all my other work. I'm not trying to disrespect the artist who did it but she was still pretty new, just out of apprenticeship, and it just does not hold up to the caliber of all my other work I had before and after it. The cash changed hands so it is mine now anyway. my skin; my choice. it is a pretty cut and dry issue.
I hope your futures are as bright Shine's teeth:)
Lol when the Christy Mack artist was trying to explain why his tattoo was covered he sure did stumble and stutter while saying it didnt bother him...lol
Sarah Fabel is so beautiful; inside and out 🖤🖤🖤
Paul Acker is here, OMG. He is sooooo amazing
Shit, I have an outline, it's gotta be 26-27, more? years old. Dude was a friend, things were said, no reason to air laundry that old. He gets handed a tattoo gun I get his first tattoo. I think it will stay as is. Not getting it removed, not getting it finished. Just there. A reminder.
I could listen to sara fabel talk all day
paul acker's work is AMAZING
wait can we get an episode about like more horror stuff
when the guy with the baby started talking I started smiling SO BIG "ta-OO three yearas la-ER"
8:49 lol, awesome edit!
I like most of these views and opinions. Not big headed or sheisty at all, they're just keeping it real and so chill. Not a lot of hate in this video.
you can really see the different levels of maturity in the artist. nothing wrong with some but it seems like a similar progression. The older more experienced artists all kinda had the sane feelings.
That baby makes my heart melt ❤️❤️
