I’m surprised Bubba got 4th place. I thought he did better than Nikki’s. The minute I saw Ryan’s finished work, I had a feeling she’d be the one to win it.
Nikki's had a lot of little tricks in it. Tony from last season was all-aboard hers on Instagram, so I figure the difference between her and Bubba is probably something a tattoo artist can better appreciate. I did prefer Bubba's design (my favorite design of them all, probably) but I think Nikki outshown him in the little moments.
Bubba made a cool tattoo, but the lines were inconsistent in some areas and the hand looked kind of strange because of how he shaded it. I'm assuming that's why Nikki edged him out.
@@MiuXiu Well they say walk away with 25k which indicates its tax free, although prize money for job contests etc like sports can be taxed. Either way its roughly $20,000 after tax is decucted which is still an insane amount for a $600-$1300 tattoo
Ryan is a top notch artist. She went through her original season having done a lot of work she normally doesn’t do. Then her finale tat assigned by Kelly, was something that goes against every essence of her being, and she WON by doing her research and practicing with equipment she wasn’t familiar with. I believe she has more than proven herself in the tattoo world. 🥰
At first I thought it was a popularity contest, since the fourth ranked tattoo was amazing. But then I saw Ryan's tattoo and realized she won because she deserved it.
I do like Bubba's the best but man picking between this whole group ain't easy! Congrats to Ryan! Maybe people will stop acting like she's an undeserving Ink Master now!
I don't understand why people want to invalidate her win. Like, Gian was just as awesome as her, I know, but that means it was really just a coin flip for who would win. They were both equally deserving. I think Bubba (got carried by a legend who didn't even actually work at his shop) and Anthony (love him so much, but he won on an unfinished tattoo and Nunez has even straight-up said he wish he'd voted differently) are both way more deserving of controversy than Ryan. So why is she the most controversial Master then? People try to say Ryan only did black and gray, but that's just false; most of her wins were for color--just check out her "best of" video. Honestly, I think it's a case of the broflakes.
@Paul Hopkins Gian is a technically sound but artistically unimpressive tattooer. All he did were simplistic designs a half-talented kid could have drawn. Ryan can draw circles around him. She's a real artist, not just someone who can do a clean line. Ryan had more wins (tattoos of the day and flash challenges) than anyone else and, even though she had only been tattooing for 5 years, she always called the shots when she had to work with other artists. She's creative and a leader. Other very good artists (meaning people who can actually draw), such as Megan Jean Morris, couldn't adapt their skills and mindset to the format. Ryan was already better than some of the previous winners (Jason Clay Dunn, Dave Kruseman and Anthony Michaels, to name a few). And with more experience, she will surpass most of them. The only reason people question her win is because she's a good-looking woman.
Nikki taking 3rd behind 2 ink masters proved she really deserved to be in the finale for her season imo. Sucks her and Kelly had to go head to head when they did
It has been my goal to get a tattoo done by Ryan Ashley I've always loved & admire her work. I truly hope one day I can afford something rad done by her
@@wiktoria11990 Hers* It's her work. As an artist I still think of my pieces as mine, regardless of who gets to wear or keep it. I put a piece of myself in my work, energy, effort, time and creativity.
I could tell Megan was really bummed. (I loved her design, but she went WAY too dark on the face and stuff.) She did seem genuinely bummed out to be first called, so I agree.
@@TheShape. It'll lighten up a little, but not enough to make it look totally right. And, it wouldn't matter even if it did, since she went dark (meaning: similar in shade) everywhere, which creates tonality regardless of whether or not the whole thing lightens out. There's so much irrational rage in there that I can't even address the rest of that.
I think this was voted upon by the public kind of like American Idol? So I think a lot of people were voting onThe winner as an artist, her tattoos have all been in my opinion better than this one
Is it still a surprise? Ryan won her season doing a style that was the total opposite of what she does. It's impossible to surpass that amount of talent.
im a Ryan Ashley fan through and through, she's one of my biggest inspirations and that tattoo is fucking insane but I have to hand it to Dj. his tattoo is probably my favorite out of the 7. the way he creates the background using the scythe is dope as fuck, I also love how it looks a bit like something you'd see in a comic book overall its something I'd honestly love to have on me
To be honest, for me, this was more exciting than the actual Ink Master final. Was hoping for DJ to win again, but the moment i saw Ryans work i was like "oh boy...DJ is in trouble" lol
Something about Ryan stands out to me. No not Bc she is a woman, but she is able to wear tattoos and grey hair with such elegance! When I spot people in the crowd, she stood out the most (no not Bc she’s wearing a red dress) she stands out Bc she could be a model in an industry that doesn’t allow tattoos and still be able to pull it off
Yes so proud of her and so happy for her and her family. Today not only fans but whole world says you are special and you are in our hearts always keep Inspiring 💗
RYAN...no doubts YOU ARE "THE INK DIVA"...BEAUTY QUEEN and THE BADASS of them all!! I would definitely PRIZE you 4 times higher! Your beauty is simply ASTONISHING & CRAZY TO LOOK AT!! Dammmnnn it...those eyes are pure LASERS! Auuuutttchhh...it hurts so badly!💘💘👏👏
Would like to see an ink master season of either 4 teams consisting of Ink masters or 2nd place winners or third place. If not then a season with participants from season 1-7 finale 8-14 finale. Or a season with all first round eliminations. What would a season of ink master look like for you?
Ryan and Dj are such nice people, like they are both amazing tattoo artists and have bucket loads of talent and can be good sports no matter if they win or lose.
“Just like high school, getting ranked” lmao I felt that 😂
butterfly t then she got picked next right after she said that lmao
At some point I get tired of that sh**t being ranked I’m not in high school anymore
I thought she said raped
UncleBenda WHAT THE
Lmao she said it as if that’s not how the rest of life is too 😂
It is really easy to spot Ryan’s tattoos. The way she has white spot/sparkles in her tattoos. I love it!
@@TheShape. indeed
He*
@@wiktoria11990, no?
@CandyyZombiezz I think they meant the way she uses the negative space and few white highlights in her tattoos. No need to name call.
@@wiktoria11990 she's a girl named Ryan lol
1:47 the lady yelling "what?!?" Got me. 😂😂 clearly that was her top pick
I am laughing so hard over here!
Pretty much had the same reaction myself
And I think she yelled "noooo" after that too lmao
That tattoo was hugr and beautiful
I would have put his in top 3 tbh
loved DJs reaction to Ryan winning! She deserved it. Love them both, they're by far my favorite ink masters
And Anthony, just overall a very nice guy, with a lot of talent and patience
DJs a really awesome guy. Loved that he even joked and bowed to Ryan. They’re definitely the best!
He's a humble artist, love his attitude and vibe all throughtout.
yep they’re my favourite too!!
I agreed with you All you guys I love first is Ryan Ashely second I love is DJ they are my favorite people. Have a nice day everyone.
I’m surprised Bubba got 4th place. I thought he did better than Nikki’s. The minute I saw Ryan’s finished work, I had a feeling she’d be the one to win it.
Same. I was impressed by bubba though. Didn't think he had it in him.
His was the best by a long shot, in my opinion.
Nikki's had a lot of little tricks in it. Tony from last season was all-aboard hers on Instagram, so I figure the difference between her and Bubba is probably something a tattoo artist can better appreciate. I did prefer Bubba's design (my favorite design of them all, probably) but I think Nikki outshown him in the little moments.

Everyone was. You heard the crowd when that happened. That piece was a legit work of art
I love Ryan, it would be sick if her, Gion and Cleen rock one did a tattoo off!
Clean died
@@Mkay999 XD not true
Who was the one that died??
It was like Scott or something idk their faces look similar 😆😆
It was Scott Marshall.
25k is an insulting amount for this kind of talent.
incognito behavior roque 25k tax free for one tattoo, get outta here lmao
Drongo Juice but it’s not tax free.
@@MiuXiu Well they say walk away with 25k which indicates its tax free, although prize money for job contests etc like sports can be taxed. Either way its roughly $20,000 after tax is decucted which is still an insane amount for a $600-$1300 tattoo
Dude that is not the finale price
@Daddy Trump what does that mean?
Ryan is a top notch artist. She went through her original season having done a lot of work she normally doesn’t do. Then her finale tat assigned by Kelly, was something that goes against every essence of her being, and she WON by doing her research and practicing with equipment she wasn’t familiar with.
I believe she has more than proven herself in the tattoo world. 🥰
At first I thought it was a popularity contest, since the fourth ranked tattoo was amazing. But then I saw Ryan's tattoo and realized she won because she deserved it.
As if she didnt prove herself already by winning S9, people said she won cause of her gender...WTF, and now i shove this video to their faces!
@Daniel Coe even better! 4 years ago! Still ppl talk crap
Also her ex was a big member of a goth band motionless in white so a lot of the miw fans voted for her
Of course she did. If the dude would have won everyone would have thrown a fit
@@candy9997 bruh really?
@@isntshelovely5823 you're delusional if you really think she won because she is a woman.
I love how kind they were to each other. They were like they deserve this. It was cool to actually see real sportsmanship in competitions
ikr! hearing DJ complement Megan’s tattoo even tho she ranked last was very wholesome
I do like Bubba's the best but man picking between this whole group ain't easy! Congrats to Ryan! Maybe people will stop acting like she's an undeserving Ink Master now!

She is, tho
Kelly should've won
This time she did deserve do win, tho, that tattoo was amazing
@Paul Hopkins They were neck and neck. I don't know why you feel that way; if you just go back and look at their wins, both were deserving.
@Paul Hopkins Gian is a technically sound but artistically unimpressive tattooer. All he did were simplistic designs a half-talented kid could have drawn. Ryan can draw circles around him.

@@sfer1 well said, her track record leaves no doubts people are just nitpicking because they judge the book by its cover.
Why they didn't showed DJ's tattoo atleast give him some claps
They did
DJ has probably had lots of claps, ROFLMAO!!
They've did at 3:50, I think it was cut in vid.
@@questionmarkoverload It's an easy way to spot a boomer. He's almost 40 years old and hasn't realized almost no one has used rofl since 2005
they did but removed very quickly 8:50
Just watching as many of these as I can before ink master realizes they're actually showing results on youtube.
I dont know why yall shocked. She wins everytime! A true master..
Nikki taking 3rd behind 2 ink masters proved she really deserved to be in the finale for her season imo. Sucks her and Kelly had to go head to head when they did
for this season, a woman won best coach, and a woman won ink master. wow. amazing!
Feminist are angry
Yeah it’s almost like talent and skill factor more into tattooing than gender does.
They're all great tattoos. This is like ranking super heroes.
It has been my goal to get a tattoo done by Ryan Ashley I've always loved & admire her work. I truly hope one day I can afford something rad done by her
I'm so happy Ryan won! Her tattoo looks exquisite!
Venisha Pillay totally agree, on brief and absolutely gorgeous.
His*
@@wiktoria11990 Hers* It's her work. As an artist I still think of my pieces as mine, regardless of who gets to wear or keep it. I put a piece of myself in my work, energy, effort, time and creativity.
@@venishapillay9696 is she not a transgender?
@@wiktoria11990 No, Ryan Ashley was born female. She's cisgender.
So satifying to watch a finale where everybody actually makes breathtaking art.
I love that hair color on niki
Yasmine Carrera i liked the Botox
U 1 I don’t think you understand what Botox is. What you’re noticing is fillers. Not the same thing at all.
U 1 she’s not she’s simply correcting you
Yh it definitely suits her
Wow I didn’t even recognize her. It looks good.
They should of done top 3 reveal so bottoms don’t feel bad
Nobody felt bad. They were all badass tattoos. Ryan's was the clear winner though.
I could tell Megan was really bummed. (I loved her design, but she went WAY too dark on the face and stuff.) She did seem genuinely bummed out to be first called, so I agree.
This isn't highschool..they are all grown ass people. They were humble and accepted it. They know they were against front runners of the competition.
@@TheShape. It'll lighten up a little, but not enough to make it look totally right. And, it wouldn't matter even if it did, since she went dark (meaning: similar in shade) everywhere, which creates tonality regardless of whether or not the whole thing lightens out.

@@TheShape. Lol ok.
Dave saying “I’m shocked” so emotionlessly after Megan got 7th place.😂😂😂
Lmaoo
Such an awesome level of respect and support amongst the artists and the judges. Really refreshing to see
I love how DJ was literally hailing Ryan! They seem like such good friends!!
Bubba deserves so much respect he has become one of the top tier tattoo artist on this show without question
I remember how much Ryan would say how she wasn't a color tattoo artist on her season, but she always makes her color tattoos pop.
The level of talent in this show is insane!
i thought bubba's tattoo was the best but ryan's was dope too
“Why you look 50 when youre 24” has changed a lot since then lol
i wish they showcased the tattoos more... close ups, longer durations on, ect....
They do it on the actual episodes
Not a big Ryan Ashley fan tbh BUT that tattoo was absolutely beautiful...I must say she definitely deserved this win. Congrsts!!
Ryan and Nikki are the most gorgeous ladies I’ve ever seen
🧢🧢🧢🧢
The hexagon tattoo was the best, I'm sad it didn't win
I thought d same
An awesome reference of redemption from Season 4.
I think this was voted upon by the public kind of like American Idol? So I think a lot of people were voting onThe winner as an artist, her tattoos have all been in my opinion better than this one
I like DJ's tattoo but I felt it was a bit simple compared to the other designs
Yeah I feel like his was the 2nd worst out of the bunch which were all great
When I saw the blind reveals, that was the 1 tattoo where I knew that Ryan Ashley was the artist behind it.
I love Ryan Ashley's Works 😍 Congratulations! 🤘🏻😁🤘🏻
JUST GOES TO SHOW .
this woman has what it takes . she won season eight , and she won it AGAIN ! she works very hard !
Is it still a surprise? Ryan won her season doing a style that was the total opposite of what she does. It's impossible to surpass that amount of talent.
That black and grey cat 😍
I would love to see Ryan and DJ have a shop together and just kick complete ass as the best shop in America
I felt that "What?!" resonating with my soul😂
im a Ryan Ashley fan through and through, she's one of my biggest inspirations and that tattoo is fucking insane but I have to hand it to Dj. his tattoo is probably my favorite out of the 7. the way he creates the background using the scythe is dope as fuck, I also love how it looks a bit like something you'd see in a comic book overall its something I'd honestly love to have on me
Honestly thought Ryan’s and bubbas tattoos were the best
Wow my all time two favorite tattoo artists on Ink Master on the stage as the top 2 🤩
Ryan and DJ have to be some of the best in the show's history tbh
They’re the most well liked
To be honest, for me, this was more exciting than the actual Ink Master final. Was hoping for DJ to win again, but the moment i saw Ryans work i was like "oh boy...DJ is in trouble" lol
Ryan is just a master tattoo artist. Id kill to get even a tiny one from her.
The way it goes, female, male, female, male till the end. It's so sus, like seriously? What are the odds?
Ryan, DJ, and clean are my favorite winners.
I wouldn’t know how to act if she hugged me like that
Let’s all be real rn, we all knew that Ryan Ashely would win
All these tattoos are amazing my favourite was Bubba's tattoo
"Why you look 50 and you're 24?"😂😂😂😂😂
That realism tattoo with the woman's face and shapes around it deserved to win hands down in my opinion.
Something about Ryan stands out to me. No not Bc she is a woman, but she is able to wear tattoos and grey hair with such elegance! When I spot people in the crowd, she stood out the most (no not Bc she’s wearing a red dress) she stands out Bc she could be a model in an industry that doesn’t allow tattoos and still be able to pull it off
2:17 the senior citizen!
Congratulations Ryan Ashley!
You Rock!!
Dream: Ryan Ashley to do my tattoo 😎
Welcome to Colorado 😎😊
Every single tattoo she does always has 2 characters in it most of the time. Deserving winner for me.
Nice to see Peck not edited out
ryan's design is outstanding, love it
She is so cool and respectful
Every tattoo artists I speak to says the winner is chosen before the season has even started. Killer tattoos for sure!
I just realized. Ryan is the only one who managed to beat DJ.
DJ and Ryan are two of my three favorite Ink Masters.
That was the biggest simp moment in history she did NOT deserve that win
Just realized it came down to two ink masters, also the past three season winners (Ryan Season 8 and DJ Seasons 9 & 10).
" WHY DO YOU LOOK 50 WHEN YOU'RE 24"
I have luterally started crying, I just love ryan so much♡
She's gifted. Deserving. Female record breaker!
I'm a fan of anything that had anyone to do with Ryan Ashley 😍
Why do you look 50 but youre 25?
Nikki really took that phrase really serious😂
I would love to get a tattoo from Ryan! She is such a badass!
And every single review I see about people who have her work are all compliments about how she deals with them
Yes so proud of her and so happy for her and her family.
Today not only fans but whole world says you are special and you are in our hearts always keep Inspiring 💗
2:13 when Chris says "DAMN" you can tell he really wanted Nikki to win because she was on his team back in season 8
Love that DJ and Bubba are up there together again
Ryan deserves this win 💕 i love ryan and nikki both of them
Great tats.......all of them are killer artists. Hats off to this crew!
Her precision and detail is amazing. easy to recognize her work though. kinda defeated the whole blind judging thing, but that wasn't their fault.
Bubba and Jimmy are really underrated
Those were all awesome, Ryan's is just so clean and intricate though, personal favorite was Duffy's tiger
Bubba's tattoo was awesome
I would love to see a challenge between Ryan Ashley and Cleen Rock!! 😎❣💙
RYAN...no doubts YOU ARE "THE INK DIVA"...BEAUTY QUEEN and THE BADASS of them all!! I would definitely PRIZE you 4 times higher! Your beauty is simply ASTONISHING & CRAZY TO LOOK AT!! Dammmnnn it...those eyes are pure LASERS! Auuuutttchhh...it hurts so badly!💘💘👏👏

Ryan Ashley is officially the ink master of all ink masters
You could do a special Ink Master. Gather all the winners of the program, but to compete and see who is the "winner of the winners".🇧🇷
All those tattoos are so unique and beautiful and creative💖I'm going to miss this show so much!
Ryan can cut glass with that jawline
Sauce Boss it’s “cut glass”
Thommy Michaels typo thx
Dj's such a good sport, congrats Ryan
Two female winners in one night ?! LETS FUCKING GOOOO
When I saw she's back I already knew she's the winner 😀
Ryan knew she would win HAHAHAHHAHAHAHA
I love Ryan 🔥🔥👏🏾👏🏾
The tattoo at 1:47 was fucking awesome, better than Nikki’s...possibly better than DJs
Ryan and Dj are such nice people, like they are both amazing tattoo artists and have bucket loads of talent and can be good sports no matter if they win or lose.
25k for talent like that? Id give her 250k if had money. Unfortunately i have 0.10 cents
Ryan Ashley is making bank! She won $100,000 dollars and now she won 25k here. Use that money well!
All of you guys are winners to me
All beautiful tattoo, but my favourite was Niki's ❤️
