The everything’s fine one she clarified they got it cos nothings ever fine for them her friend recording wrote it out and she’s dislexic and she is adhd and didn’t check it out properly and told the artist she wanted it exactly like that and he didn’t think nothing of it until they burst into laughter they put out notice cos he was getting hate when the vid went viral but it’s doing wonders on dislexia and adhd pages and she says it’s even better cos it sums them up to perfection so she’s happy and not changing it

Kia ora, māori NZer here, just wanted to clarify that for women the face tattoos are called "Moko kauae", and for men "Mataora". Tā moko can be anywhere on the body. So cool to see people outside Aotearoa appreciating them!! Great video :)
I don’t get it - was it a new trend where they get tatts but she didn’t know what she was getting or...? Someone please explain the context I don’t get it.
@adamjsd ask and you shall receive! Chicken/vegetable stock, miso paste, diced ginger, diced garlic, onions, dash of curry powder, bit of lime juice, whatever noodles you like, and chicken if you fancy some protein. Measure with your heart, as I say! But if you want a real recipe it stems from Bon Appétit's gingery chicken soup 😁
Honestly, the Indian woman tattooing is very talented and I really wish she were in a situation that would let her develop to her full potential. She could absolutely kill it at custom script tattoos with a little bit of extra resources.
I was thinking the same. Better hygiene practices and she could be a really good tattoo artist. I just hope she’s at the very least swapping needles between customers.
My son wanted a tatoo at 19, I told him to show me, with a sharpie marker, exactly what he wanted. Ater a week, of trying to wash it off, he decided it wasn't what he really wanted. Lol
I used to draw on several tattoos every morning with sharpie or pen, like for the better part of a year as a teenager. I thought for sure they would be the first tattoos I ever got, but they were mostly on my hand and highly visible parts of my arms and I started on my legs when I actually started getting tattooed. 😂😂 I think I’ll incorporate it into my hand tattoo somehow when I do it, but I do want something different at 29 than I did at 16 😂
I feel like mental maturity depends on life experiences. I don't regret my tattoo I got when I was 19. That tattoo is still my most sentimental tattoo.
I started watching your videos over a year ago to help prep me to get my first tattoo, and this Friday I’m getting three more tattoos. Beware the pipeline, Treacle Tatt viewers!!! The snacks and beverages she makes you get are laced with Tattoo Fever!!
That explains why after just a couple of months of watching this channel I wound up with a half sleeve. I have other tattoos, just not as big as the one I got after watching Lauren. The tattoo fever is real. 😂
THE 32 year old “tattoo mom” video stating that her 12 year old self knew who she was gonna be but the 16-18 year old had no clue is the most relatable thing for me holy -. I stopped myself for years from getting tattoos during the ages of 18-24. I told myself I’d focus on other things and aim to find myself along the way and not get a cringey tattoo during. I turned 25 and waited another half year until this past January. I just booked my appointment for my third tattoo and I’m in love with both of my current pieces, both big and both incredibly done. The thing that baffles me though is that who I am now very closely resembles to the woman I thought and aspired to be when I was 12 😂. 16-23ish me?? She thought she wanted to be cookie cutter preppy, little house on the prairie vibes… with leopard spot tattoos on my arm and live laugh love on my wrists lol. It’s so wild and I feel the most like myself now.
Yeah it is interesting I decided the career I wanted at around 11 because of a book my dad read to us as a nighttime story and wouldn't you know it I actually went to school for it and I'm planning on becoming an architect now in my mid 20s but I'm happy I still haven't gotten the tattoos I was thinking about in my teens lol. It's cool to look back and see which ideas I know have stuck and which haven't. Also it's allowed me to really plan out who my tattoo artists will be (and I plan on counseling it with my travel plans too so I get to visit a new place and get a new tattoo!) so it'll look the way I want and be a cohesive layout I'm actually excited about, and my first tattoos will definitely not be visible. Also just thinking about the aging factor having a tattoo since 25 will be better than since 16 when I'm 40.
As a 33-year-old I identified heavily with this too. I feel like in my 20s I was spending so much of my time trying to adapt to my surroundings and testing out possible new interests to find a sense of belonging that I lost who I was. When I turned 30, I decided to go back to some of my interests I had from my tweens/teens and can confidently say I feel more like myself now than ever before. School-age me would be ecstatic to see what I’m up to today, and that brings me joy.
Watching your videos pushed me to finally get a tattoo I’ve wanted for about 15 years! I got it about a month ago and I already have an appointment next week to get another one 😂
That woman is right - I'm more similar to my twelve year old self than my eighteen year old self. My love of tattoos has never wavered, but content-wise I'm glad I waited until my thirties to get my most visible tattoos.
honestly on the "it was a phase bit" yea. it was. and it was still an important part of Your life. the phase was a real experience and further built You as a person. so yea, think through Your tattoos but don't hold Yourself back only because You think You may no longer be obsessed with something in 10 years. at the very least, the tattoos will bring back memories
Heyo!! Palm tattoo trooper here. Can confirm it was GNARLY but anyone who has been debating it and GENUINELY wants it, DO IT. It is absolutely so worth and I definitely hyped the pain up way more than needed. The pain was BAAAD but not nearly as bad as I anticipated!!!’
21 now, got my two late bunnies when i was 19 (whole inner, lower arm) and a octopus at 20 (outside of ellbow, 15-20cm big). i'm pretty sure, i will always love them so much, since they mean a lot to me and always will! But hell, i would be so fucked if i had gotten the tattoos i wanted at 14-16 years old haha
Please one of the girls in my school became 'famous' because she got like a vampire bite tattoo on her neck with 'edward was here' written in a veeeery bad cursive. My "dumb-best" tattoo is like a racoon dressed as iron man😂
I love this so much. I'm in the midst of getting a tattoo I've been wanting/planning since I was 17 (now 31) and I'm thinking of changing my next session to having my Guinea pigs tattooed on me, the last of 4 passed last week just shy of her 8th birthday and I can't think of a better way to have them forever.
I just had my first actually negative tattoo interaction this past Friday (the 13th), and I had never experienced feeling like I was a dumb lady client in a "boys' club" tattooer world. In my experience I have only gotten tattooed by cis men once before this (and that previous ecperience was great-it was my first tattoo)! But this last experience was terrible and honestly kind of traumatized me?? I felt talked down to and disrespected, and it really sucked! Got sorta talked into a placement that I don't love, and the artist didn't even make it look like the flash sheet, really. So honestly I was a little anxious to watch this video thinking it might contain some of those "people (usually women) getting poorly tattooed because some man tattooer made them feel dumb or silly for wanting more time or questioning the placement." Overall I am really pleased that I watched this, because it gave me good vibes about tattooing again.
Babe don’t fret if your tats not what you want you have options rework cover laser and you’ve now seen first hand some red flags hope your next tat goes well sending love
@@treacletatts thanks, I just keep replaying over and over that I could've/should've spoken up more and pushed for the extra two seconds it would've taken to try the stencil once on the placement I was thinking in the first place. I keep blaming myself, but my mom actually had a good way of describing it when I told her about the experience: she said that I probably "didn't feel emotionally safe to contest him" and yeah, that's absolutely it. I felt such pressure to rush through the process, and then I felt like I *couldn't* tell the person who was about to permanently mark my skin anything negative, or else he might do the work poorly or something. 🙃 The shop offers free touch-ups within the first few months, and I might go by when he is not around, maybe even when the original designer of the flash sheet is available. I chose the piece from a tattooer I had seen excellent work from, and (I feel stupid for not knowing this going in, because I've never done a Friday 13th flash day before) I didn't know that you just get whoever is available, not necessarily the person who designed the tattoo. Idk. The way he was rude to me while doing it also rubbed me the wrong way-I said, "I can move my arm if you need," and he said in a really condescending way, "No, moving is the last thing you wanna be doing right now." He followed up with "Yeah, the best thing you could do right now is be still," and I honestly couldn't believe it?? I have several (6 or so) tattoos on just that one arm he was working on alone. Did he think I did a little jig while getting them? It was so frustrating but also I'm kind of too scared to tell the shop what happened bc I don't think people will believe me, or they'll that it really wasn't as bad as I experienced it as. Again. Sorry for the oversharing, I'm just really hurt by that experience (and I didn't give all the details even lol) and now I'm venting.
Got my first three tattoos this year, at the grand age of 35. Two of them I would have got at 18 - one I have literally wanted since I was that age. I love them all. I'm glad I waited until now in some ways, I've been reclaiming my body as mine after some medical issues. But they are designs I have always wanted, even before turning 25.
Ooof the dipping straight into the ink bottle may have actually killed me at around 21:00. Also I don't think that's a new needle. Oh it's so many things. Oof yup definitely not alive anymore from that TikTok.
I'm 21. I have 7 tattoos. I go into my tattoos pretty darn confidently because when I think about what 12/14 yo me wanted as tattoos, I wouldn't regret them because they were amazing ideas. I just trust my own opinion on what to do with my own body!!
I'm 19 with one (1) hand-sized tattoo on my thigh. It's well done, and I'd mulled over the design for over a year prior to even booking the appointment. So while I agree it's wise not to get blasted all over with whatever tattoo style is current or your own current obsession, I think getting something you've been wanting for a long time even while not being fully-developed is a good idea. HOWEVER I definitely think mulling it over for a good while is a must, that and waiting until you're of legal age and can shell out some good money for a decent tattoo, so even if you come to regret it, it's an objectively good looking tattoo ;)
I had no idea tattoo were this expensive in America. I'm French and I have a bunch of back tattoos, including a pretty large piece. I got all of them from three different artists. All of them had the same rate, €50 for a half-hour. So my two-hour tattoo was €200. And all three of them are considered good tattoo artists, in one of the biggest cities in France. I know a couple of my friends who thought I was paying a pretty steep price but who understood because of the reputation of the artists. Now of course there probably are very expensive studios in France but they're definitely the exception and not the rule, and you'd have to be a pretty massively famous artist to be able to charge €350 (or like €300 with conversion)
Damn.. I live in Baltimore city which is a major US city. Definitely not as expensive as New York or LA, but still for a good artist you’re probably paying $200/hour at the very least. I go to two different artists currently who charge this rate and I will say that they both work pretty quickly. I have a hand sized black and grey shaded butterfly on my arm that cost $200 because she finished in an hour. $100/hour used to be the standard here for a long time, but things got crazy with inflation in the past 4 years. I think in small towns you can still get a cheaper rate. It definitely makes getting tattooed harder. There is an artist in my area I follow who charges by piece so you agree upon a price before starting. They are the ones that are the most expensive usually. Her minimum is $600 usually. Her stuff is amazing, but I can’t afford it.
My sister paid 1000 euros for a 7cm colored tattoo in Paris. I was shocked but she said that she reached out to several tattoo shops and received a similar answer.
The artist I go to does $100/hr, so basically the same price you paid, but that's considered pretty standard rate in my area for any artist that actually knows what they're doing
All I can think is: how many people do you think walked out of that "Ink and Drink" with real ink in their skin? 🤦♂️ Looking beautiful today, Lauren! Thanks for another good video! 😊
They don't use tattoo ink. It's paint. I know people that have been there. If anyone does stupid shit, they're booted out. I really want to go and check it out - it's not too far from where I live.
I feel like an outcast sometimes when it comes to pain level in getting a tattoo😂 Usually I sit there trying not to fall asleep because mentally it’s relaxing for me but then other times I know im still as ever then get caught in my thoughts asking myself if I remember how to breath lying there or if my muscles are listening to me and hopefully they aren’t actually stiffening of flinching while my artists works because again, I really don’t notice any of that other than watching the tattoo get done. Is that just me? Am I beyond weird, or does anyone usually go through this too 😂😂😂
I think the "Ink and Drink" thing could work if they have someone with them to make sure they're not doing anything dumb. But as you said, there is always that one idiot
On the topic of not getting tattoos "too young": I got my first tattoo almost 6 years ago, when I was 19 and to this day it is one major life decision that I do not regret in the slightest.
I always tell people to wait one year and if they still want the design, then go for it. My first tattoo was a really bad dragon on my back shoulder. Fortunately it was quite small and has since been covered up with something MUCH better. My second was Snoopy and Woodstock doing the happy dance and I still love it. I've had it so long it's been touched up once and now needs it again, but I've loved Snoopy since I was a little girl and I still do.
That full body snake tattoo! I don't have any tattoos as of yet but it would be supercool to do something like that. Like even some type of spell/arcane vibed tattoo that would flow across everywhere, like on some spellcaster character. XD
11:22 my parents always told me that my alt style and love for piercings was just a phase. Got my septum pierced at 13. Still have it (though it's stretched now) as well as a ton more. I'm 26 now. 🤷♀️
The "wait until you're older" is such good advice 99% of the time tbh, I got my first at 18, a tiny word on the side of my wrist because I knew I would either end up with lots of tattoos and that would get covered eventually or I wouldn't want any others and I could ignore that easily, I'm now 27 with 4 tattoos, all done within the past year and a half, and more to come, the first one has been covered btw lol
Drinks and tattoo sounds like a really fun idea. I'm thinking of it like the painting and drinking thing that art studios do where normally your just sipping on a drink, your not getting drunk
I got my first tattoo when I was 23, and I spent about 3 years planning what I wanted. For every tattoo I've gotten since and every tattoo I will get, I sit on an idea for a minimum of 3 months before getting it to make sure I'm confident I'll like it. To this day I have 9 tattoos and only one I slightly "regret" (but it has more to do with the execution by the artist than the concept.)
I got my first tattoo the day I turned 18 and I remember sitting in the science class at lunch with my friends talking about the tattoos I wanted to get. It's been years and I've gotten some but I've still got some years to go before I get them all and I regret none. Since I first learned about tattoos when I was like 5 and went with my parents when they got a tattoo I wanted an anchor tattoo. My first tattoo was an anchor styled after the anchor tattoo a guy has on his hand, the guy to me is like my second father and has really changed my life and I now have many tattoos inspired by him. Thank God I has no cringe phase
I really wanted an anchor tattoo but am very picky about placement and didn't want it on my forearms or shoulder because it would look really butch so I found a gorgeous silver anchor piece of jewellery, its Thomas Saboo design, I love it! I still sometimes want to get the tattoo but I've already got pieces of my ankles and shoulder blades, I want to keep my arms bare.
Tattooing can be expensive here in the States but that's still a very steep hourly rate on that 80 hour piece. And usually hourly rates are not applied when doing something large like a back piece. Feels strange to try to blast out a back piece in one sitting (although Filip Leu used to do it over weekends at conventions) but maybe that person is a celebrity or something. My back piece is almost finished and will probably be about $6,000 total. Probably about 60 hours.
My mum made the executive decision that my first tattoo would be of a pet that i was incredibly attached to. Genuinely the best decision ive made. The tattoo isnt in good shape 8 years later but i cant say i dislike the tattoo. It was my first and its of my past rat Lucas. From then on ive only gotten a shakespeare king leer quote and a massive mandala on my whole right forearm. Next tattoo will be a mushroom fairy ring over my left knee ✨
I had surgery yesterday and I’ve just been watching all of your tattoo enthusiast reacts videos while on bed rest. Definitely a good series and keeping me entertained / distracted from my pain!
I just pulled out my heavy duvet for winter, I have my mug of tea, I'm all set and snuggled in; thank you for the wonderful distraction from a rough day, Lauren!
I just got my two (small) tattoos at 28. I held myself back for so many reasons; fear of the pain, hatred / negative feelings about my body and not being comfortable with people touching it, feeling like I wasn't "cool" enough, etc. My only regret is not starting sooner. Your channel has really helped me see the positive side to the tattoo industry and how welcoming the community can be, and I really appreciate you and your content!
The hand-hold grip the Indian tattooist is using on the tattoo machine is the same hold one would use for a henna cone. My guess is that they learned to do henna body art before they learned tattooing and applied their earlier techniques to the skill.
The lady about not getting big tattoos till 25...wow yeah her choices were questionable lol however! I like to think my ideas of sleeve animals, and another sleeve of greek/roman myth statues are not as bad as Live love laugh 😂😂
Wow that tattoo in India was wild! No real concerns for hygiene. Like yeah, she used some isopropyl alcohol on the needle it appears, but dang, that needle must be soooooooo blunt by now. Then the no gloves and using hand sanitizer on the skin rather than isopropyl alcohol! Hope the person getting the tattoo didn’t catch any blood borne infections!
IDK bout 12:28 !! I am soon to be 22 year old man and I have been getting tattoos since I was 18 consistently. I think the real problem is if you are someone scared of tattoo commitment, or very unsure, then yes I bet in a few years you would easily regret them. But of my current 16 (Some are huge like my half sleeve tiger, and 3 are small Friday the 13th tattoos) My taste and style keep changing and I have zero regret lol. I have a zodiac sign prominent on my arm and I do not even know anything about them haha! It is all expression and fun, and even if I "Grow out" of some of the mystery get what you get ones that I have, or even the 3 pokemon ones, I still love that at one point it was a part of me. That is definitely a "to each their own" type of situation and it is less important about knowing who you are with tattoos, and more important about knowing how you will feel after the fact. Either way, Love tattoos, Love art, and Blessings to all!!
Soo idk if I might change throughout the next couple of years but as of now I'm 20 and I already got like 40-60% of my body covered in Tattoos. Here are my rules based on what I see other people regretting; 1 No trend tattoos, I mean I really like the birth year tattoo trend and I think it looks dope af when a person has their birth year on their belly in a nice font but do I really want this in 20 years? idk man. 2 No face, no neck, no fingers; again, I adore these placements and I have plenty of ideas but there really is no need to rush this. 3 Question whether the tattoo will age well or not. I really don't need a fineline tattoo that will look like trash in five years and I also need enough space within my tattoos to ensure they will still look good in decades from now. 4 Timeless tattoos; I honestly don't think that you can really regret something like a traditional rose, can you? 5 don't be too edgy; I got a 666 and I do really like it but this might change tbh so that's why I will slow down with the edgier stuff 6 No fan tattoos. I really like certain bands, games etc but for those kinda tattoos I'd also like to wait for a while, especially if I haven't been a fan for at least several years 7 No quotes or too meaningful things - I am not talking about memorial tattoos but more of these pretentious type of tattoos like "live laugh love" 8 have a back-up plan; I don't think that my love for tattoos will change but maybe my preferred style will so technically I wouldn't mind getting a black out tattoo. 9 probably the most important one; invest in your tats; it really doesn't make sense to me to get a cheap tattoo. Besides the health risk, I see tattoos as a long-term investment since they literally stay forever and that's why I want them in the best possible quality which also involves researching your tattoo artists and their healed work. What do you think, is it still kinda stupid to get so many tattoos and also such big pieces as I do?
Eeeeey! You got my man remy in the video!! Love that guy and have been following him for a hot minute! Not only is he basically the most tattood man in the world (by hours spent getting tattood) but hes so dang knowledgable, kind, and pushing the boundaries of what ink can do all the time!
My aunt has similar snake tattoos! One snake is middle finger, up her arm, behind her neck, down to the other middle finger. Another is stacked around her neck, ones across her ankle, etc. She’s an absolute badass, a drag icon and activist, and I always look up to her tattoos. First person in my family to get one too
I am so excited to get my second tattoo in a few weeks! I came pretty scared and unprepared for the first one but it was such an incredible experience. I brought my comfort plushie, went to eat at a delicious korean place right before that since it was a 1pm appointment, had a great time chatting with the lovely artist... Im so excited to do it again while being more prepared this time
As I was sitting thru the ad , I realized this whole time I’ve been subscribed to you I thought it was TREACIE tatts, like Tracy lmao . Wow I’m so silly ! Love your vids !
As someone who was a teen when the tv-show Dark Angel was a thing, I'm so happy I was too young to get a tattoo, bc I would have had so much regrets if I had gotten a barcode tattoo on my neck.
Thanks for making this seires, it help now to deal with giref (which I'm not going any details because I still shocked by this event) so stay safe everyone and remember say that love ones you love them
About the 'don't get one till you're 25' thing, I understand where shes coming from. But at the same time I feel like very sentimental, or important things can be very valid. Like say, a tattoo of a deceased pet that you want to memorialize probably isn't something you'd ever regret. Granted that example isn't for everyone, because some people will just look at it and be upset every time they see it because of grief, but if you aren't like that and remembering them makes you happy, you aren't going to regret that. I haven't gotten a tattoo yet, but I want to get one of a character I made when I was little. I have hundreds of original characters and stories now, and this character will always be EXTREMELY important to me because he was the first character I wrote a story for, and making that story genuinely changed my life. It's something that will never change. He will always be the first character I made, so he will always be important for me. I plan on using his first design, so it's not something that will ever change. Not that i'm saying your first tattoo has to be that meaningful, but if you want something that you know you'll never grow out of it's probably a good idea. If you wanna get a fandom tattoo, design it, then wait like two years and if you still love it, get it. If you look back on it after two years and are even the slightest bit bored of it, dont.
I only discovered you recently and ended up watching a bunch of your older tiktok reacts so I'm happy to see you're still doing them! I only have one tattoo so far (watercolor style with geometric lines on top, 5years ago) but I always planned on getting a second (at least) and after watching your content the urge is getting mighty strong now.
now i’m genuinely wondering if the switch from big bold patchwork to small and simple came with the economic shift? everythings so much more expensive including tattoos so if someone were gonna go spend $150 to get an impulsive tattoo, $150 gets you a lot less now than it used to
I'm 22 started getting tattooed the start of last year. I have 6 now one that has poorly aged it's not that I regret the design but the artist that did it rushed it. It's a portrait he did in 45 minutes. Already need a touch up. Odds are it will look better then it did when it was fresh.
I’ve been missing these 😍 I’m going to a tattoo convention on the 29th and I think I’ll get a Halloween inspired tattoo, I can’t wait! P.S. I’m the guy who DMed you on instagram and suggested the tattoo artist shout-out video 😂
My career choice (chef) doesnt lend itself easily to hand tattoos. I cant even wear nail polish more than one day at work (i can wear it as long as its not chipping and if im touching the food i wear gloves. Gloves while serving obviously). My hands sweat so easily i do not think i could manage it wearing a glove (probably doubled) all the time. Its bad enough when i have to with a bandaid. Also its hot enough when im wearing a long sleeve (or compression sleeve) while my tattoo sleeve is healing
Peace and love to the “tattoo regret girlies” I get some people do but I’m almost 26 and I love my tattoos I got when I was 18 but also I experimented and found my style a lot early then most so I don’t have any live laugh love tattoos 😂🤦🏼♀️
I had a friend that regretted a lot of her tattoos but I haven’t regretted one that I’ve gotten, I’m in my mid-twenties and got most of my tattoos around 21 too. I know what I love even on days I don’t know who I am so I guess that’s what really matters
There’s a song called “Sunday Morning After” with a lyric that goes, “I woke up with a snake tattoo” and the first persons snake tattoo has it stuck in my head now!!😅 Note to self, unless I want that constant ear worm it’s probably best if I never get a snake tattooed on me😆
I've been enjoying your videos for the past 4 or 5 years and i started my tattoo journey last month on my 30th birthday. Now I'm enjoying your videos in a whole other way, having experienced getting tattooed. Thank you for the knowledge, insight and motivation to start this journey. I'm hooked now. ❤ keep well!!
17:20 that Video going kinda viral literally saved my ass😅😅 My tattoo artist saw it the day before my appointment. I wanted something done wird a Quote and a little drawing I drew myself. She got so paranoid because of the misspelling that she checked my tattoo multiple times and actually found a typing mistake I didn‘t notice
I really didnt like the tiktok where the person says taht we are so sure who we are between the ages of 16 to 23 but we dont know and will end up regretting things. I don't like it because it's something that keeps being said to me, and so far at the age of 21, i dont regret any of my permanent body mods. Started stretching my ears at 14, took testosterone at 16, started getting tattooed at 17, got top surgery at 18 and so far i dont regret any of this. Sure they said until 23 but thats kinda what people do in my experience, where they keep upping the bracket and i a way where it feels like ill never win. I was told id regret at 16, then 18, then 20 and now 22, im pretty sure the next step will be to tell me ill regret at 25 😂 There are tattoos i "regret" but i dont regret the idea i had or the vision, i more so "regret" the execution of it as in how the tattoo artist drew it or placed it (against my wishes) or just the fact that that day they were lazy and the work was just not good. But my plan is and will always be to partially laser them to get the same thing tattooed but better, or simply rework them if thats an option. Also scientists have been telling us for years now that there is no such thing as a "fully developped brain", the brain never stops "developping", it actually evolves all throughout your life until you pass away. Your brain at 25 will not be the same at 50, which wont be the same at 80. If there was a "pause" to your "brain development", then dementia in the elderly wouldnt exist, but it does and its really commun and communly caused by age. Its the same with any other body parts, organs...etc they never stop "developping", thats just what we call aging. The only reasons we fill like 25 is the mark is because on average, at 25,youve had a decent amount of experiences, thoughts, and time to question and experiment to figure out who you are and what you like/dont like in life. But thats not the case for everybody and you can never truely tell for sure that youll never regret something, you just have to be "cautious" and self aware. Like when i was 15, my "political ideology" would change on a whim based on whatever influencer i was watching at the time and i knew it, so i just didnt get any political tattoos back then 😂 (not that i could've anyways), i also didnt stretch my ears past the turning point because i liked more than one style and some didnt fit the stretched ear aesthetic in my opinion, so i left my options open per say.
Lol the amount of times I thought “man I really want this to be over” while getting my chest and shoulders tattooed last weekend 😂 I know exactly what that guy meant
I've seen the facetattoo on Danique it is definitely stunning, after seeing the video I also immediately want a face tattoo like hers, it's suits her face so well but I need to wait for when I'm full before I start on my face 🙈 plus my mom will kill me 😅😂 (even though I'm 34, I'm scared hahaha) love your content as always 🥰 greetings Corine from the Netherlands!
just wanted to say I love the variety of content here!! I love the deep dive-y videos as well as these tiktok reactions, and the personal ones talking about tattoo experiences as well. I’m glad you enjoy all kinds as well!
The everything’s fine one she clarified they got it cos nothings ever fine for them her friend recording wrote it out and she’s dislexic and she is adhd and didn’t check it out properly and told the artist she wanted it exactly like that and he didn’t think nothing of it until they burst into laughter they put out notice cos he was getting hate when the vid went viral but it’s doing wonders on dislexia and adhd pages and she says it’s even better cos it sums them up to perfection so she’s happy and not changing it
Ah so happy to know the context of this!!! Will pin your comment for others to see 🫶🏻
this is so pure❤
Love the explanation but please I beg of you add some coma or a period to it
That's iconic, really!

Kia ora, māori NZer here, just wanted to clarify that for women the face tattoos are called "Moko kauae", and for men "Mataora". Tā moko can be anywhere on the body. So cool to see people outside Aotearoa appreciating them!! Great video :)
I actually love the "everthing's fine", like I really relate to the positive yet ironic nature of that tattoo 😂 it's the new "pobody's nerfect"
I don’t get it - was it a new trend where they get tatts but she didn’t know what she was getting or...? Someone please explain the context I don’t get it.

I initially read the title as “Tattoo Goddess Reacts…” and I was so happy and ready to enthusiastically endorse the new title. 😂
I’ve got not one but two blankets, homemade ginger noodle soup, plants by my side, I’m ready to go
Yessssss 😍
drop the recipe my friend 👀
@@adamjsdyes pls i need it too
@adamjsd ask and you shall receive! Chicken/vegetable stock, miso paste, diced ginger, diced garlic, onions, dash of curry powder, bit of lime juice, whatever noodles you like, and chicken if you fancy some protein. Measure with your heart, as I say! But if you want a real recipe it stems from Bon Appétit's gingery chicken soup 😁
how dare you make noodles out of gingers don’t you know we’re a dwindling species
Honestly, the Indian woman tattooing is very talented and I really wish she were in a situation that would let her develop to her full potential. She could absolutely kill it at custom script tattoos with a little bit of extra resources.
I was thinking the same. Better hygiene practices and she could be a really good tattoo artist. I just hope she’s at the very least swapping needles between customers.
I absolutely agree
Noone noticed that the heading said Indiana instead of India.
My son wanted a tatoo at 19, I told him to show me, with a sharpie marker, exactly what he wanted. Ater a week, of trying to wash it off, he decided it wasn't what he really wanted. Lol
I used to draw on several tattoos every morning with sharpie or pen, like for the better part of a year as a teenager. I thought for sure they would be the first tattoos I ever got, but they were mostly on my hand and highly visible parts of my arms and I started on my legs when I actually started getting tattooed. 😂😂 I think I’ll incorporate it into my hand tattoo somehow when I do it, but I do want something different at 29 than I did at 16 😂
There are ways to get a transfer tattoo with a design of your own. Always a good idea to wear that for a few weeks, to see if you'll still love it.
I picked out my first tattoo when I was 16 and got it done at 19.
I feel like mental maturity depends on life experiences. I don't regret my tattoo I got when I was 19. That tattoo is still my most sentimental tattoo.
I started watching your videos over a year ago to help prep me to get my first tattoo, and this Friday I’m getting three more tattoos. Beware the pipeline, Treacle Tatt viewers!!! The snacks and beverages she makes you get are laced with Tattoo Fever!!
Ahahaha 😂😂😂
It's too late for us 🤣
What did you get?
That explains why after just a couple of months of watching this channel I wound up with a half sleeve. I have other tattoos, just not as big as the one I got after watching Lauren. The tattoo fever is real. 😂
That would explain how I got 2 in a month's time. Already planning my next
THE 32 year old “tattoo mom” video stating that her 12 year old self knew who she was gonna be but the 16-18 year old had no clue is the most relatable thing for me holy -. I stopped myself for years from getting tattoos during the ages of 18-24. I told myself I’d focus on other things and aim to find myself along the way and not get a cringey tattoo during. I turned 25 and waited another half year until this past January. I just booked my appointment for my third tattoo and I’m in love with both of my current pieces, both big and both incredibly done. The thing that baffles me though is that who I am now very closely resembles to the woman I thought and aspired to be when I was 12 😂. 16-23ish me?? She thought she wanted to be cookie cutter preppy, little house on the prairie vibes… with leopard spot tattoos on my arm and live laugh love on my wrists lol. It’s so wild and I feel the most like myself now.
Yeah it is interesting I decided the career I wanted at around 11 because of a book my dad read to us as a nighttime story and wouldn't you know it I actually went to school for it and I'm planning on becoming an architect now in my mid 20s but I'm happy I still haven't gotten the tattoos I was thinking about in my teens lol. It's cool to look back and see which ideas I know have stuck and which haven't. Also it's allowed me to really plan out who my tattoo artists will be (and I plan on counseling it with my travel plans too so I get to visit a new place and get a new tattoo!) so it'll look the way I want and be a cohesive layout I'm actually excited about, and my first tattoos will definitely not be visible. Also just thinking about the aging factor having a tattoo since 25 will be better than since 16 when I'm 40.
As a 33-year-old I identified heavily with this too. I feel like in my 20s I was spending so much of my time trying to adapt to my surroundings and testing out possible new interests to find a sense of belonging that I lost who I was. When I turned 30, I decided to go back to some of my interests I had from my tweens/teens and can confidently say I feel more like myself now than ever before. School-age me would be ecstatic to see what I’m up to today, and that brings me joy.
Watching your videos pushed me to finally get a tattoo I’ve wanted for about 15 years! I got it about a month ago and I already have an appointment next week to get another one 😂
Oh we love someone on a roll with their tattoo appointments!!! Go you 🥳🫶🏻
That woman is right - I'm more similar to my twelve year old self than my eighteen year old self. My love of tattoos has never wavered, but content-wise I'm glad I waited until my thirties to get my most visible tattoos.
honestly on the "it was a phase bit" yea. it was. and it was still an important part of Your life. the phase was a real experience and further built You as a person. so yea, think through Your tattoos but don't hold Yourself back only because You think You may no longer be obsessed with something in 10 years. at the very least, the tattoos will bring back memories
Heyo!! Palm tattoo trooper here. Can confirm it was GNARLY but anyone who has been debating it and GENUINELY wants it, DO IT. It is absolutely so worth and I definitely hyped the pain up way more than needed. The pain was BAAAD but not nearly as bad as I anticipated!!!’
21 now, got my two late bunnies when i was 19 (whole inner, lower arm) and a octopus at 20 (outside of ellbow, 15-20cm big). i'm pretty sure, i will always love them so much, since they mean a lot to me and always will!
But hell, i would be so fucked if i had gotten the tattoos i wanted at 14-16 years old haha
Please one of the girls in my school became 'famous' because she got like a vampire bite tattoo on her neck with 'edward was here' written in a veeeery bad cursive. My "dumb-best" tattoo is like a racoon dressed as iron man😂

I love this so much. I'm in the midst of getting a tattoo I've been wanting/planning since I was 17 (now 31) and I'm thinking of changing my next session to having my Guinea pigs tattooed on me, the last of 4 passed last week just shy of her 8th birthday and I can't think of a better way to have them forever.
@@nicolorangeso sorry for your loss ❤️ i say go for it, you won't regret it!
I just had my first actually negative tattoo interaction this past Friday (the 13th), and I had never experienced feeling like I was a dumb lady client in a "boys' club" tattooer world. In my experience I have only gotten tattooed by cis men once before this (and that previous ecperience was great-it was my first tattoo)! But this last experience was terrible and honestly kind of traumatized me?? I felt talked down to and disrespected, and it really sucked! Got sorta talked into a placement that I don't love, and the artist didn't even make it look like the flash sheet, really. So honestly I was a little anxious to watch this video thinking it might contain some of those "people (usually women) getting poorly tattooed because some man tattooer made them feel dumb or silly for wanting more time or questioning the placement." Overall I am really pleased that I watched this, because it gave me good vibes about tattooing again.
Sorry for the overshare lol
I’m so so sorry you had this experience my love 😩
Babe don’t fret if your tats not what you want you have options rework cover laser and you’ve now seen first hand some red flags hope your next tat goes well sending love
@@treacletatts thanks, I just keep replaying over and over that I could've/should've spoken up more and pushed for the extra two seconds it would've taken to try the stencil once on the placement I was thinking in the first place. I keep blaming myself, but my mom actually had a good way of describing it when I told her about the experience: she said that I probably "didn't feel emotionally safe to contest him" and yeah, that's absolutely it. I felt such pressure to rush through the process, and then I felt like I *couldn't* tell the person who was about to permanently mark my skin anything negative, or else he might do the work poorly or something. 🙃 The shop offers free touch-ups within the first few months, and I might go by when he is not around, maybe even when the original designer of the flash sheet is available. I chose the piece from a tattooer I had seen excellent work from, and (I feel stupid for not knowing this going in, because I've never done a Friday 13th flash day before) I didn't know that you just get whoever is available, not necessarily the person who designed the tattoo. Idk.
The way he was rude to me while doing it also rubbed me the wrong way-I said, "I can move my arm if you need," and he said in a really condescending way, "No, moving is the last thing you wanna be doing right now." He followed up with "Yeah, the best thing you could do right now is be still," and I honestly couldn't believe it?? I have several (6 or so) tattoos on just that one arm he was working on alone. Did he think I did a little jig while getting them? It was so frustrating but also I'm kind of too scared to tell the shop what happened bc I don't think people will believe me, or they'll that it really wasn't as bad as I experienced it as.
Again. Sorry for the oversharing, I'm just really hurt by that experience (and I didn't give all the details even lol) and now I'm venting.
But hey, out of all the online community spaces I could be venting, I feel like the treacle tatts viewer base will probably "get it" the most haha.
Got my first three tattoos this year, at the grand age of 35. Two of them I would have got at 18 - one I have literally wanted since I was that age. I love them all. I'm glad I waited until now in some ways, I've been reclaiming my body as mine after some medical issues. But they are designs I have always wanted, even before turning 25.
Ooof the dipping straight into the ink bottle may have actually killed me at around 21:00. Also I don't think that's a new needle. Oh it's so many things. Oof yup definitely not alive anymore from that TikTok.
the dirt under her fingernails made me queasy 🫠 it’s like sepsispalooza
i audibly screamed, my mouth hit the floor
I'm 21. I have 7 tattoos. I go into my tattoos pretty darn confidently because when I think about what 12/14 yo me wanted as tattoos, I wouldn't regret them because they were amazing ideas.
I just trust my own opinion on what to do with my own body!!
I'm 19 with one (1) hand-sized tattoo on my thigh. It's well done, and I'd mulled over the design for over a year prior to even booking the appointment. So while I agree it's wise not to get blasted all over with whatever tattoo style is current or your own current obsession, I think getting something you've been wanting for a long time even while not being fully-developed is a good idea.
HOWEVER I definitely think mulling it over for a good while is a must, that and waiting until you're of legal age and can shell out some good money for a decent tattoo, so even if you come to regret it, it's an objectively good looking tattoo ;)
I had no idea tattoo were this expensive in America. I'm French and I have a bunch of back tattoos, including a pretty large piece. I got all of them from three different artists. All of them had the same rate, €50 for a half-hour. So my two-hour tattoo was €200. And all three of them are considered good tattoo artists, in one of the biggest cities in France. I know a couple of my friends who thought I was paying a pretty steep price but who understood because of the reputation of the artists. Now of course there probably are very expensive studios in France but they're definitely the exception and not the rule, and you'd have to be a pretty massively famous artist to be able to charge €350 (or like €300 with conversion)
Damn.. I live in Baltimore city which is a major US city. Definitely not as expensive as New York or LA, but still for a good artist you’re probably paying $200/hour at the very least. I go to two different artists currently who charge this rate and I will say that they both work pretty quickly. I have a hand sized black and grey shaded butterfly on my arm that cost $200 because she finished in an hour.
$100/hour used to be the standard here for a long time, but things got crazy with inflation in the past 4 years. I think in small towns you can still get a cheaper rate.
It definitely makes getting tattooed harder.
There is an artist in my area I follow who charges by piece so you agree upon a price before starting. They are the ones that are the most expensive usually. Her minimum is $600 usually. Her stuff is amazing, but I can’t afford it.
My sister paid 1000 euros for a 7cm colored tattoo in Paris. I was shocked but she said that she reached out to several tattoo shops and received a similar answer.
The artist I go to does $100/hr, so basically the same price you paid, but that's considered pretty standard rate in my area for any artist that actually knows what they're doing
All I can think is: how many people do you think walked out of that "Ink and Drink" with real ink in their skin? 🤦♂️
Looking beautiful today, Lauren! Thanks for another good video! 😊
My thoughts exactly!! Thanks Josh 🥹🫶🏻
They don't use tattoo ink. It's paint. I know people that have been there. If anyone does stupid shit, they're booted out. I really want to go and check it out - it's not too far from where I live.
@@samanthafairweather9186 That's good to hear!
I feel like an outcast sometimes when it comes to pain level in getting a tattoo😂 Usually I sit there trying not to fall asleep because mentally it’s relaxing for me but then other times I know im still as ever then get caught in my thoughts asking myself if I remember how to breath lying there or if my muscles are listening to me and hopefully they aren’t actually stiffening of flinching while my artists works because again, I really don’t notice any of that other than watching the tattoo get done. Is that just me? Am I beyond weird, or does anyone usually go through this too 😂😂😂
I think the "Ink and Drink" thing could work if they have someone with them to make sure they're not doing anything dumb. But as you said, there is always that one idiot
9:43 as someone who has punched walls quite often, that knuckle tattoo makes me sick 🤢
On the topic of not getting tattoos "too young": I got my first tattoo almost 6 years ago, when I was 19 and to this day it is one major life decision that I do not regret in the slightest.
been loving all the in-depth content, but it's great to see a classic tiktok vid. like snuggling into a warm familiar cardigan 😊
I always tell people to wait one year and if they still want the design, then go for it. My first tattoo was a really bad dragon on my back shoulder. Fortunately it was quite small and has since been covered up with something MUCH better. My second was Snoopy and Woodstock doing the happy dance and I still love it. I've had it so long it's been touched up once and now needs it again, but I've loved Snoopy since I was a little girl and I still do.
That full body snake tattoo! I don't have any tattoos as of yet but it would be supercool to do something like that. Like even some type of spell/arcane vibed tattoo that would flow across everywhere, like on some spellcaster character. XD
11:22 my parents always told me that my alt style and love for piercings was just a phase. Got my septum pierced at 13. Still have it (though it's stretched now) as well as a ton more. I'm 26 now. 🤷♀️
The "wait until you're older" is such good advice 99% of the time tbh, I got my first at 18, a tiny word on the side of my wrist because I knew I would either end up with lots of tattoos and that would get covered eventually or I wouldn't want any others and I could ignore that easily, I'm now 27 with 4 tattoos, all done within the past year and a half, and more to come, the first one has been covered btw lol
I thought I would never get a face tattooo.... but guess who just started considering it 🤔😆 that face tattoo was amazingly beautiful ❤
Drinks and tattoo sounds like a really fun idea. I'm thinking of it like the painting and drinking thing that art studios do where normally your just sipping on a drink, your not getting drunk
I was so afraid it was going to be a girls name like Emilia that I was hugely relieved when it said Familia ❤6:29
That's my daughters name.
I got my first tattoo when I was 23, and I spent about 3 years planning what I wanted. For every tattoo I've gotten since and every tattoo I will get, I sit on an idea for a minimum of 3 months before getting it to make sure I'm confident I'll like it. To this day I have 9 tattoos and only one I slightly "regret" (but it has more to do with the execution by the artist than the concept.)
I got my first tattoo the day I turned 18 and I remember sitting in the science class at lunch with my friends talking about the tattoos I wanted to get. It's been years and I've gotten some but I've still got some years to go before I get them all and I regret none. Since I first learned about tattoos when I was like 5 and went with my parents when they got a tattoo I wanted an anchor tattoo. My first tattoo was an anchor styled after the anchor tattoo a guy has on his hand, the guy to me is like my second father and has really changed my life and I now have many tattoos inspired by him. Thank God I has no cringe phase
I really wanted an anchor tattoo but am very picky about placement and didn't want it on my forearms or shoulder because it would look really butch so I found a gorgeous silver anchor piece of jewellery, its Thomas Saboo design, I love it! I still sometimes want to get the tattoo but I've already got pieces of my ankles and shoulder blades, I want to keep my arms bare.
Tattooing can be expensive here in the States but that's still a very steep hourly rate on that 80 hour piece. And usually hourly rates are not applied when doing something large like a back piece. Feels strange to try to blast out a back piece in one sitting (although Filip Leu used to do it over weekends at conventions) but maybe that person is a celebrity or something. My back piece is almost finished and will probably be about $6,000 total. Probably about 60 hours.
I agree
Lauren’s spooky room is MY DREAM
🥹❤️
My mum made the executive decision that my first tattoo would be of a pet that i was incredibly attached to. Genuinely the best decision ive made. The tattoo isnt in good shape 8 years later but i cant say i dislike the tattoo. It was my first and its of my past rat Lucas.
From then on ive only gotten a shakespeare king leer quote and a massive mandala on my whole right forearm.
Next tattoo will be a mushroom fairy ring over my left knee ✨
I had surgery yesterday and I’ve just been watching all of your tattoo enthusiast reacts videos while on bed rest. Definitely a good series and keeping me entertained / distracted from my pain!
I just pulled out my heavy duvet for winter, I have my mug of tea, I'm all set and snuggled in; thank you for the wonderful distraction from a rough day, Lauren!
She’s baaaaaack!! ❤🧡💛 the background is looking beautiful and so are you dear Lauren
15:15 the best face tattoos I've all see have gone with the flow of the person's face and usually border the face, this is really pretty!
I could see that drunk uncle “bumping” into everyone in the room w his gun 😆😆
I just got my two (small) tattoos at 28. I held myself back for so many reasons; fear of the pain, hatred / negative feelings about my body and not being comfortable with people touching it, feeling like I wasn't "cool" enough, etc. My only regret is not starting sooner. Your channel has really helped me see the positive side to the tattoo industry and how welcoming the community can be, and I really appreciate you and your content!
Wow, Lauren you are radiant!! Love the background too!
Thank you my love 🥹🫶🏻
Watching this in bed after spending the evening in A&E. Definitely the pick me up I needed ❤
Oh noooo! Sending you good vibes ❤️
@@treacletatts thankyou!! I'm gradually improving
The hand-hold grip the Indian tattooist is using on the tattoo machine is the same hold one would use for a henna cone. My guess is that they learned to do henna body art before they learned tattooing and applied their earlier techniques to the skill.
The only concern i would have about blackout type tattoo is the possible skin cancer that might be hidden and go undiagnosed.
The lady about not getting big tattoos till 25...wow yeah her choices were questionable lol however! I like to think my ideas of sleeve animals, and another sleeve of greek/roman myth statues are not as bad as Live love laugh 😂😂
Wow that tattoo in India was wild! No real concerns for hygiene. Like yeah, she used some isopropyl alcohol on the needle it appears, but dang, that needle must be soooooooo blunt by now. Then the no gloves and using hand sanitizer on the skin rather than isopropyl alcohol! Hope the person getting the tattoo didn’t catch any blood borne infections!
IDK bout 12:28 !! I am soon to be 22 year old man and I have been getting tattoos since I was 18 consistently. I think the real problem is if you are someone scared of tattoo commitment, or very unsure, then yes I bet in a few years you would easily regret them. But of my current 16 (Some are huge like my half sleeve tiger, and 3 are small Friday the 13th tattoos) My taste and style keep changing and I have zero regret lol. I have a zodiac sign prominent on my arm and I do not even know anything about them haha! It is all expression and fun, and even if I "Grow out" of some of the mystery get what you get ones that I have, or even the 3 pokemon ones, I still love that at one point it was a part of me. That is definitely a "to each their own" type of situation and it is less important about knowing who you are with tattoos, and more important about knowing how you will feel after the fact. Either way, Love tattoos, Love art, and Blessings to all!!
Soo idk if I might change throughout the next couple of years but as of now I'm 20 and I already got like 40-60% of my body covered in Tattoos. Here are my rules based on what I see other people regretting; 1 No trend tattoos, I mean I really like the birth year tattoo trend and I think it looks dope af when a person has their birth year on their belly in a nice font but do I really want this in 20 years? idk man. 2 No face, no neck, no fingers; again, I adore these placements and I have plenty of ideas but there really is no need to rush this. 3 Question whether the tattoo will age well or not. I really don't need a fineline tattoo that will look like trash in five years and I also need enough space within my tattoos to ensure they will still look good in decades from now. 4 Timeless tattoos; I honestly don't think that you can really regret something like a traditional rose, can you? 5 don't be too edgy; I got a 666 and I do really like it but this might change tbh so that's why I will slow down with the edgier stuff 6 No fan tattoos. I really like certain bands, games etc but for those kinda tattoos I'd also like to wait for a while, especially if I haven't been a fan for at least several years 7 No quotes or too meaningful things - I am not talking about memorial tattoos but more of these pretentious type of tattoos like "live laugh love" 8 have a back-up plan; I don't think that my love for tattoos will change but maybe my preferred style will so technically I wouldn't mind getting a black out tattoo. 9 probably the most important one; invest in your tats; it really doesn't make sense to me to get a cheap tattoo. Besides the health risk, I see tattoos as a long-term investment since they literally stay forever and that's why I want them in the best possible quality which also involves researching your tattoo artists and their healed work.
What do you think, is it still kinda stupid to get so many tattoos and also such big pieces as I do?
This IS my favorite series to watch!! I absolutely adore you, thank you for making these! ❤
Eeeeey! You got my man remy in the video!! Love that guy and have been following him for a hot minute! Not only is he basically the most tattood man in the world (by hours spent getting tattood) but hes so dang knowledgable, kind, and pushing the boundaries of what ink can do all the time!
I've got my morning coffee, called over my dog Chips, he makes the best weighted blanket. I'm ready 😊
25:07 $700/hour. Damn. $350/hour per person. Not terrible but still expensive to me.
It’s definitely expensive, but holy crap look at the quality. That’s a tattoo I would fully believe is worth that much.
Yey:) so happy to see you here with the tiktok series again. I love it 😊
My aunt has similar snake tattoos! One snake is middle finger, up her arm, behind her neck, down to the other middle finger. Another is stacked around her neck, ones across her ankle, etc. She’s an absolute badass, a drag icon and activist, and I always look up to her tattoos. First person in my family to get one too
I am so excited to get my second tattoo in a few weeks! I came pretty scared and unprepared for the first one but it was such an incredible experience. I brought my comfort plushie, went to eat at a delicious korean place right before that since it was a 1pm appointment, had a great time chatting with the lovely artist... Im so excited to do it again while being more prepared this time
As I was sitting thru the ad , I realized this whole time I’ve been subscribed to you I thought it was TREACIE tatts, like Tracy lmao . Wow I’m so silly ! Love your vids !
11:46 got my first tattoo when I was 18. I still love it to this day and I’m 26 now.
I have so many thought out tattoo ideas, and I’ve liked the same stuff for years- so I’m confident
EVERY time i get a tattoo i get there, start getting it, and i think "this is the most pain anyone has ever felt. im dying..."
As someone who was a teen when the tv-show Dark Angel was a thing, I'm so happy I was too young to get a tattoo, bc I would have had so much regrets if I had gotten a barcode tattoo on my neck.
Legitimate one of my favorite series in life ♡
You look fabulous

Oh yesss!! Have a great appointment my love 🫶🏻
About the 'don't get one till you're 25' thing, I understand where shes coming from. But at the same time I feel like very sentimental, or important things can be very valid. Like say, a tattoo of a deceased pet that you want to memorialize probably isn't something you'd ever regret. Granted that example isn't for everyone, because some people will just look at it and be upset every time they see it because of grief, but if you aren't like that and remembering them makes you happy, you aren't going to regret that. I haven't gotten a tattoo yet, but I want to get one of a character I made when I was little. I have hundreds of original characters and stories now, and this character will always be EXTREMELY important to me because he was the first character I wrote a story for, and making that story genuinely changed my life. It's something that will never change. He will always be the first character I made, so he will always be important for me. I plan on using his first design, so it's not something that will ever change. Not that i'm saying your first tattoo has to be that meaningful, but if you want something that you know you'll never grow out of it's probably a good idea. If you wanna get a fandom tattoo, design it, then wait like two years and if you still love it, get it. If you look back on it after two years and are even the slightest bit bored of it, dont.
Or even some just random cool stuff can get sentimental, like, idk, "oh, my grumpy cat tattoo, I was so young and naive, what a ride we had" :D
Hiiiyaaa omg thanks always a pleasure to pop in one of your videos ❤
❤️❤️❤️
God just spraying something on that needle is terrifying instead of having a new one.
I only discovered you recently and ended up watching a bunch of your older tiktok reacts so I'm happy to see you're still doing them!
I only have one tattoo so far (watercolor style with geometric lines on top, 5years ago) but I always planned on getting a second (at least) and after watching your content the urge is getting mighty strong now.
I'm really glad I didn't get my first tattoo until I was 27. It was a design that I wanted for almost 3 years before and i'll never regret it.
Omg please do a video where you try out temporary face tattoos! That could be so fun
now i’m genuinely wondering if the switch from big bold patchwork to small and simple came with the economic shift? everythings so much more expensive including tattoos so if someone were gonna go spend $150 to get an impulsive tattoo, $150 gets you a lot less now than it used to
Oh my gosh, I was just looking at awful tattoos on Reddit, thinking about you, et voilà ! Magical!
I'm 22 started getting tattooed the start of last year. I have 6 now one that has poorly aged it's not that I regret the design but the artist that did it rushed it. It's a portrait he did in 45 minutes. Already need a touch up. Odds are it will look better then it did when it was fresh.
I’ve been missing these 😍 I’m going to a tattoo convention on the 29th and I think I’ll get a Halloween inspired tattoo, I can’t wait!
P.S. I’m the guy who DMed you on instagram and suggested the tattoo artist shout-out video 😂
My career choice (chef) doesnt lend itself easily to hand tattoos. I cant even wear nail polish more than one day at work (i can wear it as long as its not chipping and if im touching the food i wear gloves. Gloves while serving obviously). My hands sweat so easily i do not think i could manage it wearing a glove (probably doubled) all the time. Its bad enough when i have to with a bandaid. Also its hot enough when im wearing a long sleeve (or compression sleeve) while my tattoo sleeve is healing
I watch these every day at work Thankyou for blessing todays meal with a TikTok reaction
Having a crappy week because I caught covid but your videos make it better :)
Hope you feel better soon 🫶🏻
@@treacletatts thank you! ❤️
My first/only tattoo is of my great grandma hand writing. It’s “love you very much, grandma”
I miss her
Peace and love to the “tattoo regret girlies” I get some people do but I’m almost 26 and I love my tattoos I got when I was 18 but also I experimented and found my style a lot early then most so I don’t have any live laugh love tattoos 😂🤦🏼♀️
I had a friend that regretted a lot of her tattoos but I haven’t regretted one that I’ve gotten, I’m in my mid-twenties and got most of my tattoos around 21 too. I know what I love even on days I don’t know who I am so I guess that’s what really matters
I absolutely love watching your videos they help me with my anxiety and dealing with my chronic pain
Casually bingin treacle tatt vids before my tattoos tomorrow 😊😂 love theses videos ❤
There’s a song called “Sunday Morning After” with a lyric that goes, “I woke up with a snake tattoo” and the first persons snake tattoo has it stuck in my head now!!😅
Note to self, unless I want that constant ear worm it’s probably best if I never get a snake tattooed on me😆
I've been enjoying your videos for the past 4 or 5 years and i started my tattoo journey last month on my 30th birthday. Now I'm enjoying your videos in a whole other way, having experienced getting tattooed. Thank you for the knowledge, insight and motivation to start this journey. I'm hooked now.
❤ keep well!!
So happy for you 🥹🫶🏻 and thank you for being here and the continued support ❤️
17:20 that Video going kinda viral literally saved my ass😅😅
My tattoo artist saw it the day before my appointment. I wanted something done wird a Quote and a little drawing I drew myself.
She got so paranoid because of the misspelling that she checked my tattoo multiple times and actually found a typing mistake I didn‘t notice
Yayyyy I'm living for these reaction videos!! So glad you checked out one of the ones I tagged you in.
Getting a ✨new✨ tattoo tomorrow, this is perfect!!
I really didnt like the tiktok where the person says taht we are so sure who we are between the ages of 16 to 23 but we dont know and will end up regretting things.
I don't like it because it's something that keeps being said to me, and so far at the age of 21, i dont regret any of my permanent body mods. Started stretching my ears at 14, took testosterone at 16, started getting tattooed at 17, got top surgery at 18 and so far i dont regret any of this. Sure they said until 23 but thats kinda what people do in my experience, where they keep upping the bracket and i a way where it feels like ill never win. I was told id regret at 16, then 18, then 20 and now 22, im pretty sure the next step will be to tell me ill regret at 25 😂
There are tattoos i "regret" but i dont regret the idea i had or the vision, i more so "regret" the execution of it as in how the tattoo artist drew it or placed it (against my wishes) or just the fact that that day they were lazy and the work was just not good. But my plan is and will always be to partially laser them to get the same thing tattooed but better, or simply rework them if thats an option.
Also scientists have been telling us for years now that there is no such thing as a "fully developped brain", the brain never stops "developping", it actually evolves all throughout your life until you pass away. Your brain at 25 will not be the same at 50, which wont be the same at 80. If there was a "pause" to your "brain development", then dementia in the elderly wouldnt exist, but it does and its really commun and communly caused by age. Its the same with any other body parts, organs...etc they never stop "developping", thats just what we call aging.
The only reasons we fill like 25 is the mark is because on average, at 25,youve had a decent amount of experiences, thoughts, and time to question and experiment to figure out who you are and what you like/dont like in life. But thats not the case for everybody and you can never truely tell for sure that youll never regret something, you just have to be "cautious" and self aware. Like when i was 15, my "political ideology" would change on a whim based on whatever influencer i was watching at the time and i knew it, so i just didnt get any political tattoos back then 😂 (not that i could've anyways), i also didnt stretch my ears past the turning point because i liked more than one style and some didnt fit the stretched ear aesthetic in my opinion, so i left my options open per say.
Lol the amount of times I thought “man I really want this to be over” while getting my chest and shoulders tattooed last weekend 😂 I know exactly what that guy meant
I first thought about getting a tattoo when I was 21. Didn't get my first tattoo till I was 31. No regrets. ❤
Yay so glad you’ve done another of these I love them 😍
I know it’s not your regular content, but could we get a perfume video? Would love that if you did🥰😍 love your content!!! ❤️
I've seen the facetattoo on Danique it is definitely stunning, after seeing the video I also immediately want a face tattoo like hers, it's suits her face so well but I need to wait for when I'm full before I start on my face 🙈 plus my mom will kill me 😅😂 (even though I'm 34, I'm scared hahaha) love your content as always 🥰 greetings Corine from the Netherlands!
When will you be doing a video of tattoos sent in by your subscribers? 😊 I love seeing them
just wanted to say I love the variety of content here!! I love the deep dive-y videos as well as these tiktok reactions, and the personal ones talking about tattoo experiences as well. I’m glad you enjoy all kinds as well!
