Bro. You’re a hater.
And I'm here for it!
He’s rational. Some of this shit is stupid. Sorry 🤷♂️

😂😂😂so??
I subbed because you pinned a dumb comment
I disagree about the fake sleeve, i feel like it prevents that temporary freak out after u get a tattoo where you're just kind of weirded out by seeing something different on ur body. wouldn't you rather someone do the fake sleeve and then decide they dont want the real one than have them decide they hate it and have to pay for laser? also you can think theorhetically that you want something, but feel differently about it when you actually see it on ur body
agreed
I feel the way Kirk does...ppl today want to jump into tattoos, which leads to putting on massive fake sleeves. I feel tattoo culture is important to the art. Start off small and grow. One day that may lead to getting a huge sleeve. Its respectful, its sensible and it helps promote the art of apprenticeship. Just my opinion.
@@islandlife7872if you’re that unsure that you need to see it, you probably shouldn’t do it. When I saw someone’s sleeve I knew I’d want tattoos immediately. If you’re on the fence it’s likely that you’ll regret it. Is there harm in trying a temporary one? No. I just find it strange that they’d be that unsure
When I was still apart of the lds church, those fake tattoos are the first time I even considered getting one. It was a super eye opening expirence but it's mostly because of the culture I grew up in.
@@newyorkvisionary Some people just struggle to visualize what the tattoo would look like on their body. It's hard to decide if you'd like the way something looks on you if you can't picture how it would look. It's like people using wigs or Photoshop to help visualize how a certain haircut would look on them. Personally, I see nothing wrong with it.
That 28 year old Betty Boop is slamming. I love aged tattoos, old people out here looking like melted crayon sets and I am here for it
A hand poke session is a therapy for me 😂 not painful, feels like you are being pampered, great conversations, cute art and no sound (hate the noisy tattoo machines, i can't focus on anything with it)
Yes this! It's a generally more comfortable experience. An artist in my shop has used handpoke to do someone's nipples and they said it was more comfortable than a machine. Also just wanting the experience is a legit enough reason to get one 🤷♀️
I think the fake sleeve or temp tattoos to test are great. I used temporary tattoos to test out what spots I might like & how much coverage I liked. It helped me to choose the spots I like best for the tattoos I definitely want & I absolutely adore my first tattoo. Some of us are completely serious, but we are overthinkers, so something temporary first gives us ease of mind to finally go for the things we want instead of talking ourselves out of it.
You're not really understanding his point If you're the type to talk yourself out of something that shows you don't want it that badly and probably shouldn't be getting tattooed until you are ready. What you're describing sounds more like being indecisive and unsure not overthinking.
@jameson9283 while I appreciate your opinion on the matter & I agree that he probably meant it like that too, I'm simply pointing out that different things work for different people. I know I've overthought myself out of a lot of things in the past; things that I really always wanted & that if I had been able to sample or test out a little before taking the final leap would have ended up making myself happier a lot sooner instead of overthinking it, unnecessarily, for years. For people like me, while we are 100% sure we love & want something, we still need to be able to test it or see how something looks in person to be able to actually go for it. Also, the temporary tattoos can help soften the possible shock some people experience immediately after getting tattooed because they've already gotten used to seeing an image there on a non-permanent level. By trying to deny us this simple ability (that doesn't offend or hurt anyone btw), people like me see it as gatekeeping because that would mean we would never get that tattoo that we've been dreaming about for years. I finally got my first tattoo, with zero regret, because I was able to verify exactly where I wanted to place it & enjoyed living with the concept for the duration of a few temporary tattoos first; otherwise I would have admired my reference pics for the rest of my life & been disappointed that I never took the chance. I'm currently planning the rest of my tattoos with confidence.
@@MegBat713you’re what’s wrong with the tattoo community
@holdonthisaaron the fact that you are trying to harm me with your opinion says more about you than I could ever reply. I don't believe in gatekeeping & I will not apologize for something that literally harms no one but makes myself & possibly others happy. I hope you have the day you deserve.
I always draw tattoo ideas on myself and if there was a fake tattoo like the actual tattoos I want I'd definitely use that and just test it out for a few days before I book my appointment.
I dont regred any of my tattoos and the drawing actually helps me choose a placement or decide on a subject.
I also have some very impulsive and shit tattoos and I still love all of them :)
I completely agree. I did this with my arm bands. I have two solid black bands on each forearm and I drew on my arms with a sharpie for weeks trying to decide placement and thickness and I believe it was time well spent.
@@nuh-uhbro765it sounds weird to me that you needed several days to decide whether solid bands would look the way you want. You’re obviously young and tattoos are new for you because if not, you would know that tattoos grow and change over time. So if you like the band as an idea, just go with it. The thickness and position don’t matter that much
@@michaelmangan7963 It sounds to me like you’re not the smartest guy who knows nothing about me or my age lol
@@michaelmangan7963 “The thickness and position don’t matter much” said nobody who has half a brain and understands art 😂
@@michaelmangan7963that’s the dumbest advice I’ve ever read.
idk how you can be so strong on “dont get a tattoo if you dont want it” and then be a hater about people being able to try out the look of a tattoo before you make the life long decision
He's not being hateful. Being honest about disliking something doesn't make you a "hater"! Hate is a pretty strong word. Anyway, if you watch a lot of his vids you'll see that he likes quite a few too... but no-one then calls him a "lover"!
@cannotfindmyshoes3 You don't need to defend a grown man you don't know. He's not under attack. That person was just pointing out something that seems hypocritical to her.
I have a sleeve and a half sleeve, an abdomen tattoo, tattoos on my legs and a tattoo on my foot. I can say with my full chest that i think using a temporary tattoo to see if you actually want one is a great idea. I wish i would have done it.
at least for me, i think part of the draw of hand poke is that it’s ritualistic- it takes longer, it feels different (like feeling the skin pop, it’s so weird) and many ancient cultures used similar methods to tattoo throughout history. i only have one hand poke piece and i’m fairly heavily machine tattooed, so i definitely prefer the look of machine but i am open to getting more hand poke in the future too!
My oldest tattoos are over 20 years old, none look like that. All legible.
Got a handpoke in Thailand for the experience and loved it. You can swim straight away, healing is next to nothing.
When I want to get a new tattoo I print it or something similar out and tape it to the spot and walk around my house for a day with it. I’ve never had one I didn’t like but it makes me feel better that I know I like it once it’s there with the paper. It’s mostly just to see the design next to my other tattoos to make sure it all works together how I want.
You get tattoos from stock? My guy draws new stuff he designs so I couldn’t print it and tape it to a spot before the day I get it. 🤷🏻♂️
@@michaelmangan7963 I can draw pretty well. I’ll draw something up that’s similar to what I want. Or if it’s flash I’ll just ask if I can take a picture to print it out, never had an issue since I already put a deposit down
Fake tats AND piercings are a must test run for me. Especially if you plan on a large tat that you can't hide or a visible piercing in an odd place. I wore a fake septum ring for months before getting the real thing.
Lol i said fuck it and pierced my own septum with a thumbtack when i was 16, im 22 now and i still have it
did anyone hear "if you're getting tattooed when you're *18*, *30* years later you're fifty"? ik its only a two year difference but I had to think ab it for a hot sec
Discovered your channel a few days ago and have pretty much binged all your vids! Even though I can't get tattoos bc of skin issues I love to watch this content!
Right!? This is the best fucking tattoo channel now. 😂😂😂 like no joke. He’s just so unapologetically epic. 😂
@@piperatoms5926exactly, i love the no bullshit he just states his full opinions.
do you mind if i ask u what skin condition you have?

@@jennab9726 Ty for sharing 🙏❤️
Im researching it rn now. That was super cool. Had to say it first .
I'm sorry but that's simply not true, I put a temp tattoo on my wrist for 2 months before I committed. It's the only tattoo I actually still like lol. It's similar to researching and loving with something before you commit for life ❤❤❤
My guy is pumping out the content lately.
Personally really love the cyber tribal type war tattoo the girl got - wouldn’t consider face tatts apart from something like that
Is he your boyfriend? Or your hubby? You should get him to let us see the tatts he did on you! Surely you don't go to someone else for your tatts, huh?! (IF you have some).
I agree with the "if you aren't sure if you want the tattoo, then dont get it"-statement and its a good piece of advice honestly. Tattoos arent for everybody and thats fine.
I LOVE the art of tattoos, i love looking at tattoos. I aprisiate the art. But i dont have any myself, because i know myself and im not sure can i COMMIT to any image for the rest of my life.
And thats fine.
even japanese tebori(handpoke) masters use liners for outlines cause it makes sense
My man is definitely gatekeeping, but he would like argue with his own logic and back track. I don’t understand where he stands lol.
These videos are honestly the most attention I’ve paid to a RUclips video in years. Your stuff is genuinely fun to watch!
Definitely the best tattoo channel on RUclips, your honestly is refreshing, I hope you get the subs you deserve.
About the fake sleeve, temporary tattoos are much better to get before because you know you might want one, so um placement, and we literally also have test drives and fitting rooms to try stuff on, it's a good idea dawg.
The hand poke tattoos are so charming 🥰 . I love that everything is happening slower.
I think I’m not a tattoo person, but I’m loving the vibe of these videos.
My dad as a biker has tattoos, my step mom had tattoos (she passed) and my mom and her husband have tattoos...i used to go with my dad to get his, and ive always wanted tattoos myself however i was trying to model and did some back when you could Not have tattoos to do so, and then when i got older i never could decide what i wanted and where i wanted it, forever, so i never have.
Babe wake up new Kirk Fagan vid dropped
I’m a new tattoo artist and love watching your videos. I am self taught unfortunately but just glad to be tattooing. You’re very knowledgeable thank you for sharing.
I feel like that fake sleeve thing would be really cool for cosplaying tbh
My friend does hand poke tattoos at a shop and I let her do one on me and it hurt way more than any of my machine tattoos.
Agreed, I have a ton of machine tattoos and recently got a stick n poke on a whim and could not believe how much more it hurt, was wayyyyyy unexpected.
I have plenty of tattoos and I love them. I have tapped on a potential tattoo to see if the placement, style and color would fit with the tattoos I have around it. I think I’ve done this 2x and it helped me solidify the placement
great message to send mate -= so many people are just not into or about the culture .. people also need to take accountability when they don't communicate or push back on a tattooist when they don like something... they'd rather says "yeah i like it" then post all over Instagram , bad mouthing the shop... mad times
I respect you for saying some people just aren't about it. I have tried talking myself into one in the past and I could never settle on the right tattoo but as I get older I am realizing they just aren't for me.
I’m probably never going to get a tattoo but these videos are great to gain some insight of your world and I love it
Keep the videos coming man I think the content is interesting and you're sharing your opinion.... Nothing wrong with that, if they don't agree keep it pushing.. we all have our own identity if we didn't we wouldn't have tats or self expression and creativity in the first place
great content as usual bro
“If you told me this is what my tattoos would look like at 50, I wouldn’t care, I’d be about it, don’t give a shit” 😂 funny asf bro, you’re dope, glad I found the channel
best tattoo youtuber
I THINK the hand poke thing in some cases at least, is for the pure experience of it. Especially if its something traditionally done that way. But otherwise i dont see why you would
While I have no tattoos due to skin that heals shittily, I’m really enjoying your videos. Thank you for pumping out the content! (Did see a tat of a devil surfing in the barrel, ngl it was so fucking cool)
I love your channel, and I think tattoos are so interesting.
I LOVE tattoos, love watching them be done, love watching content, im a movie and tv makeup artist and an artist. I have drawn fake tattoos on people for over a decade that look real on camera! I have also designed (or helped design) quite a few as well ...
But I have not found any I can commit to myself.
I wonder if it is tied to not getting a tattoo young when all my friends did or whatever it is but I just haven't been able to committ to one for life yet.
But I love tattoos and draw realistic fakes on my body all the time lol
I'd look up some of the japanese hand poke stuff. I remember watching a video where an artist demonstrated how the machine packed in colour and how it looked like a completely different shade from hand poking. There's definitely a lot of usage for it, even just for people who don't have the hand eye coordination to control a machine (especially at higher speeds when everything is a blur and the skin is bouncing around lmao). Oh and look up pieces of mixed handpoke + machine stuff, it's crazy how different the ink settles in even when it's the same colour or just black.
Lol, I sometimes draw like crappy circles on my arm with eyeliner just to figure out placement while working on my sleeve, but never thought about trying temporary tattoos because it wouldn’t be the same anyways. I have been working on my sleeve for like 3 years though because I didn’t have a full vision. I just get smaller pieces and it is finally turning into something really cool. All that to say that going from nothing to a full sleeve is probably an adjustment.
Another comment about fake tattoos. I am heavily tattooed and I just put a fake tattoo over an existing tattoo to help me judge if I wanted to add on or change it. Looks a lot better than if I just drew on myself with a Sharpie or something. It's also going to be great to send pics to my artist to be clear about placement and things.
Had my mom draw on a butterfly on my arm and it was super helpful for seeing how the skin would move around on my arms. I don't like my arms and it was a good experiment.
Good shit kirk 🤙
I have one tattoo and it's big but not very visible. I actually like the idea of trying it on before you actually get the tattoo. Maybe not a whole sleeve...but a small or medium one just to try out if you like the placement I think is a fun idea.
Where is his tattoo shop located?
Idk getting hand poke tattoos just has that sophomore year vibe to it that you can’t get anywhere else
nah i 100 percent agree with him. if you’re thinking about it soooo much that you have to do a fake sleeve just to judge it. you’re not gonna like it eventually and you shouldn’t get tatted
As a person who’s heavily tattooed, I agree with you on the fake tattoo sleeve
i disagree. its a smart idea. a good thing. helpful also.
I was in the Army with a guy who did the temporary tattoo thing to try to feel out the experience. It was a bit strange to me at the time, but I guess it must be more common than I thought. Me, I'm pretty sure I wanted one as soon as I started seeing them on musicians and am still happy that I started collecting them.
I love all my possible future smudges
Almost spit out my drink when you said 5k subscribers this is a quality organized video so i kinda assumed you had a couple hundred K
great channel idea would be nice make money with the shop and talking about it here also. it would be nice for people to have a list of stuff they should not get because it will get them in trouble like in jail or prison. Also another list of things that relate to one genre like science topics. I dont have tats but if i did it would be lots of symbols about magnetism and geometry.
A lot of old pieces of art can be done with machines now that doesnt mean you should ditch brushes and only use machines. Same deal with stick and poke it's just a different way of tattooing why would anyone be against it or criticizing it it's just a different way of doing it
I think it’s ok to try temporary tats to see how they feel, only they know how they feel.
We’re not all the same, some jump into it without making sure first then regret it.
And some people put in a lot of thought, time, effort before committing, like you always say, tats are permanent and laser removal is painful and pricey.
Tattoo culture has become super cringe. I think it started when inkmaster got popular.
I’ve never had tatts never really wanted them. It’s because I know I’m indecisive I’ll want to change what’s on my body and I can’t because a tattoo is permanent. I love people with tattoos and went with my daughter for her first one at 18.
The hand poke is traditional in some places. I’d do it if I was getting one in a tribal area just for the experience
Saying that temporary tattoos mean you don’t want tattoos is so silly. It’s a lifelong commitment, and sometimes your ideas don’t look that good on your body.
dude as if you only have 6K followers! this channel gunna blow. up.
If your getting a tattoo based off what you think other are gonna think if they aint for you.
Can you please do a reaction to remy? He’s the Canadian tattoo artist that has done like 4 body suits. Currently tattooing over a full blackout. Would love to hear your opinion
i got just 1 tattoo so far and hella committed to it plus the many more to come🥰i've wanted tats since as young as like 5 cuz of my parents and majority of loved ones having them growing up XD same with piercings (I got 2 oral ones)
I only have one small tattoo but I've always known I've wanted a lot of tattoos since I was little, looking at my mom who has tattoos. Currently I am not able to get anymore because my partner is against tattoos. But maybe one day I can get those tatts I've always wanted.
Your partner can be against them all they want, it’s your body though. If it’s truly something you’ve always wanted and thought about since you were young then I think you should have a frank conversation with them about it. Holding that regret or resentment inside is going to wear you down over time. Let them know how you feel and if you’re fully intent on making it happen and they’re against it then perhaps you’re not as compatible as you first thought. Good luck.
I have probably 40% of my body covered in tattoos and I still draw stuff on in places with markers sometimes to see if I like the shape or placement. I don’t see anything wrong with seeing if your idea matches reality.
Ps. I am someone who is “about it”😂
Ya I’m actually not completely against the fake tattoo sleeve. I’d say it can potentially help prevent a lot of the tattoo regret going around.
Can i ask if you have had a hand poke before though? because my handpoke tattoos are better than my machine ones. I dont necessarily dissagree w you but you can do good work with stick n poke
I think if people think realistically about it laser removal is an option. Not an option for removing a tattoo but for maybe lightening a really bad one and getting a cover up. It should be calculated in from the beginning as a last resort. I did the same mentally with my ears, I stretched them to 10mm which generally can go back if they are taken out and left alone but that is not garanteed. I know if I really get sick of my stretched lobes I can save up and get them sewn shut. There will be scars and I would have to get regular piercings again if I wanted to wear earrings. But generally all kinds of bodymods are permanent and should be treated with respect and thought.
I haven't had temporary tattoos since I was a kid and now my 3yr old loves his temp. Dinosaur tattoo. I do want to get a temporary tattoo on my toe since I lost my nail and it will never grow back. I did get a consultation for a tattoo and the artist told me he can do it but it will hurt a lot and wont last.
1:38 says the same guy who approves tattoo cover ups? But I feel you, by seeing that Lazer removal isn't an immediate process.
Idk how often you respond to these comments but have you ever heard of ephemeral remy? Watching his bodysuit evolve over top of each other.. how can you not do white tattoos when he’s done white over an entire blackout body suit? Legitimately curious.
the heart salamander maybe also has a client problem
beginners dont know nothing about tattoocare and even more quality work can be easyl look that bad from washing of or scratching off scab in the healink process cause beginners often pic on there new tattoo and care too much about it
How do u geel about tatting over removals kirk?
A tattoo is not a fashion statement, fashions come and go. In 10 years face and hand tats will probably be unfashionable. Get tattoos because you love them, carry them with always. Take time to consider what you are having, spend time finding a tattoo artist that will provide you with an amazing piece of art.
6:27 my thought here was “timeless and trashy” lol
Lol young ladies your butterfly tattoos will look like moths when you get older 😊. I have one and I still love it. 😂
Old tattoos can be refreshed by new ink or blast over or cover up. Or left it like that. They'll old like you will.
I love the lore in the mirror
10:00 ahh I totally love the white tattoos! I’d absolutely get that! Maybe not on my face but I think that looks siiick
What is your style? We need to see some of your work bro!!
The first one...I don't think the top tattoo is the same one. It sounds like you think it's the same one but it said "Good results healed" and the other one said "Blow out healed"
The white face tattoo will fade out quickly,. Perhaps that's what they had in mind when having it done?
I feel like there must be a simple solution to white ink that just hasnt been considered that will make it stay as well as black..
I want to try to find the way out of the maze on the guys white face tatt
I have tattoos but they were done by my ex friend and they are so terrible. So I'm looking to find an affordable cover up
Put in jail for defending his home😭😭😭
if you not sure just dont cause normal client knows that he will love their new tat
That arm pit tattoo is straight up trashy.
There's a growing trend of Canadian Innu here gettin hand poked traditional face tattoos. They are beautiful, well done and respectful to the origin of the art before colonialism.
lol he’s not made for sitting thru that arm piece either if he had to put a fake one on first…
I agree with you about the "testing the waters" thing with temporary tattoos. It's so disconnected from the process of getting tattooed and just setting people up for disappointment.
how so? its a smart idea. testing the water is good.
How is resting the waters a bad thing? Like don't you test drive a car before you buy it?
Also the reality of what a tattoo can look like after healing vs those temporary tattoos is a huge difference so I agree with the author
@@GhettoDac it can look a little different. The idea is to get an idea on how it looks on you. Which is good. The point still stands.
I think has merit if you want to test social reactions and how okay you are with them. Like if you’re not sure if you’d feel happy, just fine, uncomfortable annoyed or anxious with people giving your tattoo/tattooed area more looks/attention, people walking up and commenting on it, people asking to touch it etc
Many of the things about the experience of being tattooed are social and occur after the fact. People like to believe they know exactly how’d they feel and react to certain social situations but we really can’t be 100% certain until it happens
What if I want tattoos but can’t afford them? 😊 ever thought about that? 😊
I think temporary tattoos can be a good idea for testing the waters when it comes to highly visible areas. I have a lot of tattoos and had an idea for something to add onto my hands that I was 99% sure about, but just to be even more sure I drew on the designs and walked around with them for a day. Ended up getting the tattoos and I'm happy with them. Did the same thing a few years ago with my face tattoos, walked around with the temporary tattoos for a day, became convinced that it was indeed what I wanted and that I was ready for it, got it done, and years later I'm still happy with it. Did the same thing with my throat tattoo years ago as well. But I agree that getting a fake sleeve is a whole different story. That's not something you need to test the waters with. But even with that, if it works for some people to motivate them to take the next step, then I have no issue with it. The issue I'd have is if people walk around with those fake tattoos to try to pass them off as real, when they have no intention to actually get it done. But if they are genuinely testing the waters and doing it privately rather than publicly, then I think that's fine.
hand poking seems so unnecessary just from a time standpoint.
Your opinion on hand poke is interesting. It's got a fascinating history in all kinds of different cultures. Most of the traditional hand poke I know about is either in Asia or the Pacific Northwest. I think there's lots of room in the tattoo world for different types of tattooing. Your tattoo culture is different than, say kakiniit up north but they're both valid.
You look like you could've been in Nirvanna.
That temporary sleeve looked WAY too good to be a temporary tattoo, and the way they applied it didn't seem like it would result in such perfect cohesion...I'm wondering if homie actually had the sleeve and they just blanked his arm out with make-up/digital alteration beforehand.
Or maybe I just have no idea how advanced temporary tattoos are these days!
I got a manual tebori traditional japanese tattoo. And a hand poke chicano pachuco cross in jail.
