This channel allows me to express thoughts and feelings in the moment. I would love to get your feedback on my ideas but understand that my thoughts can change and often do.
"Buy a used car, get more tattoos" is some of the best advice anyone can ask for lol hell yeah 🤘🏻
Hahah I drive a 1999 ford ranger
@@kirkfagantattoo nice, I got a 1998 Honda Accord, runs great 👍🏻 more money for ink! Keep it up bro, always look forward to your videos
@@JustTheTip556I got a 2000 Honda Accord. I guess we all have the same ideas 😂😂
I had a patient tell me he was scared of me because of my sleeve. I told him there's a fairy on a mushroom mate calm down.
Where I live, people don’t get tattoos alot like Americans. It is considered tacky for face though. Why do artists in US do that? Are they told to by record label?
haha wtf?
@@sukaenacornelius9285because it’s not their body to regulate. Why are you so judge mentally driven? Let people live. I think your attitude is tacky.
@@brandonsean123 its considered tacky here in Spain by culture. Doesn’t mean my attitude is tacky or I think less. Regardless, most presentable people n earth who look healthy and happy are here in coastal south Spain. They are just strict catholic and a more unified culture. Zero crime here unlike US cities. Strict judgement will always be considered tacky by an American which is why America/UK/South America is a dump now. A no shame culture with zero social identification. Try sagging pants here or being a slob.
Depending on the culture, fairies can be pretty scary /jk
I feel like I've had multiple run-ins with tattooers with shit attitudes tbh. No matter how tatted we are, there are certain artists that are just going to treat young women like we're wasting their time. I wouldn't go back to any of the artists who treated me that way, regardless of how good the artwork is.
Never had a bad experience, thankfully. If I did, I'd walk away. Couldn't Imagine having to sit for cpl hours with someone I didn't like!
@@DMWBN3 yeah the whole "change my mind" anxiety is bad enough when the cashier gives you an unexpectedly high total. Couldn't imagine it with an artist.
Something that serious, unless you LOVED their work more than you disliked them, I dont think I'd ever bite my tongue and go through with it. Too big of a deal
So sorry to hear you had so many bad experiences. I know the type of guy your are referring to and hat some of those experiences I other life situation. I was lucky though ( as a woman) to find my tatoo-artist right away. He is a really cool, chill dude who treats women with respect. He has his principles with his art, what he does and what he doesn't, but he will always listen and work with me on my design ideas. When we have a general Idea of what we are going for his drafts are always amazing and better than everything I had thought about prior. I have so much trust in his vision and skill that I think about letting him do some freehand ornamental eventually. This is the kind of relationship with my artist that I am used to, and I think it should always be like this. Tatoos are so personal and I think the experience whole tatooing is almost as important as the final outcome. And this just doest work if you can't fully feel comfortable with your artist
Their dcks to dudes too. The artiste knows all. Until they dont know sht and turns out ohbthisndoesnlook dope ngood idea. Having them step outside their hard learned and earned box is tough. And ive had really good artist just be premadonnas its such a juggle of individual
I’m always watching Pepe rocking out in the background.
Dont worry, Kirk, we are going to beat ink master on this channel! Seriously tho, id rather watch all your videos 5 times over again than watch ink master
100% agree, he's more interesting and real
I appreciate a tattooer that is talented enough and has good bedside manners. If you are looking for an “experience” , then pay for the persons time. If you are looking for a a specific piece of work , pay for that…. If you need both , pay for it. Above all -- competence trumps a cool vibe .
Bloody oath. Honestly, unless the tattooer is beating me with a sack of door knobs, I could give a stuff about the vibe. That's what headphones were invented for.
I'm after the absolute best quality tattoo possible, not making mates.
Yeah, I'm not getting a tattoo to make a new friend. Granted, I have been tattooed by someone who I was already friends with, but I've also been tattooed by people I don't know and have barely said a word to while being tattooed. I'm there to be tattooed. That's the experience I'm looking for. The "experience" that would put me off is one where the tattooer is taking too many breaks or fucking around the whole time and or doing shoddy work. If they're doing good work and just aren't super personable, then that still sounds like a good experience to me.
Lol Ariel dejesus is notoriously known for almost exactly copying dozens of designs, that plague doctor isn’t a sole offense 😂 also doesn’t properly sanitize and is totally rude and disrespectful on social media. You could probably do a whole video just on her.
I don't know why, but my Facebook and TikTok algorithm is suddenly showing me her content and no. Just no.
Is she a tracer?
@@ash-is-napping if she is she’s bad at it because her lines are awful 😂
@@ash-is-nappingshe leaves her 12 year old daughter to tattoo in her studio with no supervision, her potentially being a tracer is the least of her issues
@@miglek9613 not only that but tattoo artists are required by Texas law (where she is based) to be licensed which means you must be an adult so she is also breaking the law by allowing her daughter to tattoo
I think another reason for tattoo regression (at least where i live) is that tattoos have been a huge trend that plateaued like any trend does. Pretty sure quality will survive, but the plethora of questionable shops that opened up everywhere in the last years probably not.
Best body suit, I like how he kept it black ink only🔥🔥🔥
Agreed, that was an epic BODY OF ART ... Pun intended.
I totally agree with the importance of a tattoo artist's vibes when you're picking a studio/artist.
One of my tattoos was done with an artist I initially had a good experience with but when I went back for a larger piece, she made a lot of subtle jabs at my skin color, my body hair, the acne hyper-pigmentation on my back. I walked away with a tattoo that I objectively liked but will now associate with a tattoo artist that just body shamed me the entire hour.
Never went back and have since found other studios and artists that never made me feel that way.
I always tell my artist this is my idea but you do your thing. I haven't been disappointed yet.
Tattoos have gotten pretty expensive compared to even 10 years ago. But you can always get good deals on tattoos from great artists by going back to the same artist and doing a full sleeve, a complete back/torso or whatever it takes. Basically, get a bodysuit and save money! 😂
"THE MORE YOU BUY, THE MORE YOU SAVE!!" 😂 That being said, this is exactly how I'm doing my right sleeve, soo facts 💯
Tattoo artists tend to take photos right when they finish before wrapping it and then never see the person again. So I never really expected portfolios to be full of healed tats.
My sister had the Roman numerals for her sons’ birthdays on her wrists. She stopped liking them so she wanted a cover up that was a bit more original…she got heart-shaped clocks showing their birth times, surrounded by roses 💀
Those aren’t the only bad ones she has. You could play crappy tattoo bingo: early 2000s edition.
I think by stolen design they mean someone else traced the drawing made by an original artist. For sure they don't own the plague doctor imagery but if another tattooer entirely traced a drawing I created myself I'd be pissed
Just found your channel and have been binge watching. Big ups keep it going bro.
I’ve only gone to private studios and given free reign, it’s always been the best result, they’re the artist and I like their art so why not
does that last guys face tatoo really say "VEGAN" then THUG LIFE... LOL
I think you’re pretty spot on about the recession. I know you didn’t want to talk about it but as a client I have been bummed about it because it’s not that I don’t want tattoos. It’s that yes, with the current economy and artists with only 1 year of experience charging $150 an hour, it just doesn’t seem worth it. All the new tattoo trends have changed the tattoo world but like another commenter said- I think once the trends die down only the long lasting, quality work and artists who are committed to their craft will remain and the tattoo world will be able to recover
Thx for that bit of info
I have no tattoos yet.... but I've wanted one for years. I'm just starting to research tattoo artists now. I will keep that in mind. No offense, but I'd like a tattoo from someone who has seen what their art looks like on skin years after it was done.
Bro react to brutal black project
Boost
tattooers who are rude or seem to not care really ruin the memory of a piece.
I'd walk out. Enquired in a place re gently & the price was so uninterested I said "you are a rude prick, I'll not be back"
Maybe it didn't bother him, I only asked about geometric & mandala designs, approx time & what may be the cost.
I always hated that on any tattoo shows the artists always swayed the customer into doing tattoos they didn’t want. I would never give an artist full control of what goes on my body forever. That’s weird.
Not a single comment on how Buckaroo was misspelled “Bucharoo” 😂
The bad plague doctor tattoo was done by Ariel DeJesus, who is a terrible artist and person. She has been tattooing for like 20 years or something, and is trash. She does super cheap tattoos and just tries to do that as quickly as possible to get as many done as possible. She also let's her daughter, who is very young, tattoo people, which isn't even legal. Lauren at Treacle Tatts has made a few videos basically documenting all the awful stuff she does.
Her shit is... unfortunate I wander if it was a blindfold one
Digging the Mann’s Baits hat. That’s seriously old school. 👍🏻🎣
Been watching for so long and didn’t realize I wasn’t subscribed! Sorry homie subbed now 🤙
Been binge watching your videos ever since I subscribed a few days ago man, love the channel!! any shot you bring back the videos of you discussing a topic while showing us you doing a sick tat?? Keep up the great work brotha !!
A lot of tattoo artists, more so the older ones have no idea about people skills; they're rude and stuck-up to those filling their pockets. There's a way to put your point across without the attitude and they seem to lack those core skills. It's probably due to lack of experience in that area and maybe something they could pick up from other industries especially consultants. But hey, they're "rebels". Also, they always talk about what their tired of tattooing, like there's really an original thought. Get a grip. So glad I've found some that are decent and they themselves hate the attitude in the tattoo community.
I respectfully disagree at 11:00. Vibe and bedside manner means nothing to me. I would rather have a d. bag who is condescending and just a nightmare to be around but who does absolutely fantastic clean, work than get a mid tattoo from a cool person. Like im not marrying my tattoo artist. But that tattoo will be on me forever. I will say tho you better be throwing real art and perfect 10 tattoos tho if you have an unlikable personality or if youre going to treat people badly. But yeah idk why ive been seeing a lot of people talk about vibes of artists lately and everyone's acting like that means something. Idc have a bad attitude and personality but put a masterpiece on me.
I’m just outside of Philly and my artist was the best and had my best interest at the end of the day. Then after a full sleeve and my entire torso he moved to Oregon and now I’m in limbo.
omg 20k!! So well deserved!
Love your videos man keep up the good work!
only tattoos i got were during 10 years living in brazil with an indigenous tribe in the middle of the rainforest, and signifies the moment the tribe officially recognised me as a true member of there tribe, more specifically they are geometric markings that signify i am a shaman, since i went there to learn about indigenous medicines, and the bit that really makes my life worth it was when the Brazilian government sent me a letter confirming my status as a protected indigenous person, apparently the tattoos were only ever given to tribe members so the tattoos acted as ID
edit: on a few trips to the tribe i got other tattoos, one time i took part in a hunt and earned hunter gatherer tattoos on my cheeks and chin, got leg tattoos which were considered me passing from a simple medicine man to a spiritual shaman (they apparently represent that i am one with the world around me), people have asked about my face tattoos and if i "regret getting them" and the answer is "these tattoos are a hard earned sign of respect that i will always show with pride"
I FULLY trust my artist. He is a traditional tatter but he knows my style (not traditional) and he mixes our 2 styles so beautifully every single time. I just told him “I want a big ass snake sleeve, almost black and gray” and I would totally just let him do whatever he comes up with.
I don’t think I trust anyone as much I do him 😂😂😂
That’s so sad 😂
He lives in another state but it’s worth the trip every time
my whole thing with "collaborating" with an artist is that i have a vague idea of the tattoos i want and a bunch of reference images, but i'm lowkey afraid to sit down with an artist and go "this is my idea, here are a few references i found, these are the elements i like from each reference. is this something?" and like... ultimately i would trust the artist to come up with the best possible version of my vague idea, i'm just afraid of like... that being annoying or whatever lmao mostly i just don't wanna go in with this idea that i have a lot of love for just to be made fun of or talked down to lmao biggest nightmare is later seeing that artist talking shit about my tattoo or me as a client when genuinely i want to be as not-annoying as possible in the process 😭
edit: it's so funny that the hotel company i work for used to be really conservative about tattoos like "no visible tattoos at all" but then they were like... struggling to hire kitchen and restaurant staff, so they relaxed the policy to "no face tattoos and all visible tattoos cannot be vulgar or violent"
the plague doctor by ariel... shes known for ALLEGED countless horrible practices
OH HER yeah the shitty linework makes sense for her! I wander if it was one of her blindfold shit
My current 2 tats i did in the past months i told my artist literally, "this is what i want, i dont want X color, the rest is up to you".
They came out sick af. Especially my kvn robot.
I understand why tattoos in America are expensive. I’m from Barbados and we have decent Tattoers but I’ve never seen even close to the quality of a tourist’s tattoos. You’re paying for quality.
I myself have 5 tattoos at the moment and even though they may seem basic, one is a butterfly, one is a rose, a double heart. Yes they seem like the basic design but they actually represent my children my oldest nick name is bug hence the butterfly but in the wings are kk mirror imaged as my dad also called her kk bug. The double heart is my second daughter, she's my care bear. And the rose is my third daughter as her middle name is rose. When I get a tattoo it has to represent something that is special to me. Mind you that is my decision everyone's is different and they all are great. I have a idea and tell the tattooist and then let them have their own style as long as it includes what I want in the design as it represents something special, but they are welcome to have their own spin or design on the tattoo.
Viewer with the good torso black and gray piece, looks like he saw the whole flash sheet and was like “yes”
It was sooo clean tho, I would have done the same.
I got Roman numerals on my chest. Had to cover them for a Japanese half torso sleeve, but I did like them and wouldn’t mind having them to this day. Can imagine they’re a huge pain to tattoo though.
Kirk would love to see u react to GQ tattoos!! There are some really great traditional tattoos ones
I recently got a back tattoo from this artist that spent the whole time talking ish about their clients. She said she always gets hit on by clients, she said one smelled bad… Idk if she thought I was planning on hitting on her, so she was playing defense. But that should not be your knee jerk reaction to tattooing someone. It was just awkward. Now I got this outline on my back I don’t know what to do with
The problem I have with tattoos is the person with the ink get the praise and adulation instead of the artist who did the work.
Just wanted to say I enjoy binging your vids when I get stoned even tho I have all of 0 tattoos 😂
I give my artist pretty much total freedom with the designs he does for me. I go in with 50 or so different references on my tablet and hand it over to him ( I have an all comic book characters theme ). He decides what character he wants to do, and he will usually draw something up. The only thing I reserve for my input is placement. I do heros on the right side of my body, and try to do their corresponding villains on the other side. He has done 5 or 6 actual copies of the images I brought, and drawn 8 or 9 himself from a few references. I trust his work and process completely enough to let him do what he does for a living without too much bs from me.
22k followers😳insane, congrats💪🏽
Let’s goooooo🔥
For the second one I literally said, I bet that's Ariel dejesus and oh look, I was right 😭😭😭😭😭
Looks like “Bucharoo.” Covering crap with more crap.
wow, the 2nd guys whole body looks so awesome. Most people with body suits look terrible.
You’ll have 100k before the end of the year for sure 💪
i found a tattoo artist in the netherlands that i want for a flower sleeve. i am gonna say i have this amount just put flowers on me in youre style
buckaroo dude got that cause he reconnected with his dad and that was the nickname his dad called him, im p sure
I have lotta shit tattoos from my years, I wanna get an irezumi body suit next year to cover up and learn myself irezumi.
4.13. Ive gotten shittier version's of tattoos found in magazines a couple times,,, i got a straight razor that has a backwards handle 🎉🎉❤
My end goal is to get a really cool plague doctor tattoo. But im gonna be really picky about my plague doctor. I love the look of them so I want to be sure it's done right. Definitely don't want it to end up looking like that one
See if you could do a traditional style plague doctor. That would be dope probably
@@JustTheTip556 I've been saving references for a traditional plague doctor. I'm either going to go traditional or neo-traditional
50 bucks for a cross ISN'T bad-- thats hella good in my opinion eapecially if its perfect with straight lines and the spot that you want it in
Ngl I hated Ed Hardy my whole life and just now realized it’s tattoo designed shirts
11:03 imagine having to listen to her voice when getting a tattoo. 😢
I've just had 6 hours completed of a hand tattoo & geometric lower arm, cost me 500gbp. Chap charges £100ph & never says anything if it goes over 15-20 mins. He's done several of mine & got a decent rapport with him. That means a lot to me as i can give an idea & he'll do his work & have a free hand within reason.
7:38 im like 99% sure this chick is a scratcher. Her work is rough. she claims she did work at a shop but shes private studio and her tattoos are terrible.
Didn’t like the second plague doctor either
Neither do I tbh. And thats from a plague doctor fan
Cool
May not agree with many things on a lot of people say, but Jelly roll is right. Save ya coins for good work, it’s a luxury for a reason. I spent a bit more that generally would for some smaller work just recently to scope out a shop and ended up with the guy I was most interested in his work on a walk in. Wanted to make sure he had his screws on right. Willing to work with him for long term. The coffee can is getting filled with lots of extra hours at my job.
Hah!Fifty ! At GoodRebel they want 1500 nok for a horizontal line on the finger. That’s the lowest prize. 😅
that bodysuit was sick
$50 for minimum? They are ripping you off , we did do $90 minimum for years and now we do $150 minimum but thats for up to an hour and if they only want a small simple cross its still $150 lol .
I didn't realize you were in Mexico. That makes more sense now
That's how I am.
This is what I'm looking for
Rock the fuck out.
If you do your research on your artist you don't have to tie their hands and creativity behind their backs
6:42 heh it's pronounced "mick-cloud" generally
Its said ma-cloud, like highlander!
I saw it and thought of Crowley from Supernatural!
Yay! Engagement! 😂❤😂
Face tattoo haver here, I love my face swords.
Agree about spainy, he also got very very good skin for tattooing, very readable if im makin any sense lol.. :)
I'd honestly rather just take a trip to mexico and get a tattoo instead of paying the same price to get one in my own city without the trip, lol.
Sparrow? Or... Swallow??!
I have a Roman numeral tattoo I want it covered so bad lol
Off topic, but I want your opinion please.
So my tattoo artist did a piece on my outide forearm for $950. Already too much, but I’m happy with it. Months pass and we’ve planned out a new piece even bigger. I tell him my budget is 700-800 max that’s including the tip. He free hands the piece and it’s 750. He decides to go a little further and says an extra 50$ for the extra space so now it’s 800$. It’s a back to back session. Thursday was 10 hours and it’s day two and we’re nearly done after 7 hours and he asks to cover a space of my back and I say sure. We’re now done and he says “honestly bro, I’ll probably charge you an extra 100$… it’s now 900$ flat.
I felt like shit but it’s a huge nice tattoo.
So that’s back in April and last week end of June I asked for an appointment. This mf said “honestly bro, I’ll probably charge you more since I hooked you up. It was a fun portfolio piece for me and it should’ve been 1,400$ instead of 800$. So this inside the forearm will be 1,200$.”
So a hookup I didn’t even ask for is now my problem?!
Just my opinion but $900 for 17 hours worth of work?! If it is indeed quality work that’s a major discount at $50+ per hour. If your in the US than that is ridiculously cheap. The tattooer has the right to charge what he wants for your next one and you have the right to find another tattooer.
I dont like the tattoos on the first guy. It looks like a highschooler doodled on a page and put it on his face. It's just not professional looking.
Dillon is not a fighter
They don’t let you start tattooing untill you can laugh at a kitten drowning. True story
Have you seen alex the terrible tattoos?!?!?
yo i got the roman numerals, can i hit u up w a cover up? for real tho
Jellyroll is hot garbage juice
👍
Thank you for blessing us with your wisdom Kirk 🙌🏻🧎➡️
