      I think the circumstances which lead one to being more susceptible to it in the first place make it more likely to re-occur, not the event itself creating a situation for reoccurance, if that makes sense... But yes, it can happen multiple times on people. Its very rare though.

    Dude I've been tattooing for 15 years, hundreds of tattoos a year, Id never seen this before and then boom, happens to 2 people last year. 2 on the same person and one on another. Both female. I was having a mental crisis like "what the hell is wrong with me, am I getting old??" For science, both people were: female, fair skinned, mid 20s.

    • @Zombosis
      @Zombosis 4 місяці тому

      Ive run into many, many artists with long careers who've never encountered it. This is often why its dismissed as "blowouts", even though it is absolutely NOT blowouts, despite the higher chance of drift happening -from- blowouts, they arent locked together. I still hold to my belief that it has something to do with pigment particles getting past the dermal layer and into the subcutaneous fat layer-- without the structure of the epidermis to hold the pigment in place, it "drifts".

    • @haley-and_gaming6371
      @haley-and_gaming6371 4 місяці тому

      ​@Zombosis you mean dermis, not epidermis. Without the dermis, it drifts. Technically tattoos don't even need the epidermis, only dermis. The epidermis is there for non tattoo purposes.

      @Zombosis 4 місяці тому

      @@haley-and_gaming6371 No, I meant what I said. If we really want to get suuuuper finiky about it, its more likely hyperdermis/subcutaneous. The long and short is, Im spitballing theories based on my experiences and no clinical study or medical backup. It just SEEMS like the behavior of ink drift is pigment particles with nothing to bind them in place- like fat under the skin. We quibble over specificity of terms for little reason here...

    I fully understand being wierded out by a tattoo artist that has no tattoos. They kinda feel like marriage counsellors who've never been married. There's a level of understanding that you honestly just can't have without experiencing something yourself. However, that has just about NO bearing whatsoever on a tattoo artist's SKILL, or their ability to give you a good tattoo. You wouldn't turn down a surgeon just because they've never been operated on. Personal experience is far less reliable than the collected experiences of several individuals (i.e. clients). Every career is 'exploited' by the people who have said career. I could go on about pretty much every point in this video; none of them are convincing. There's just no objetive reason to not like or to mistrust 'no-tattoo tattoo artists'. Honestly all you had to say was "tattoo artists without tattoos are just kinda odd, and they're probably cowards, so I wouldn't get a tattoo from one" and I'd have agreed with you.

  • @Walter5850
    @Walter5850 Рік тому

    What a ridiculous "culture". If you have to have tattoos to be respected by tattoo peers, then you maybe don't want their respect. This gatekeeping behavior is so childish and immature. People from all sorts of life backgrounds might want a tattoo or become tattoo artists. Pretending like its one thing for one kind of people is pretty disgusting. As far as a tattoo-less artist, there is so many things which a person can be passionate about when it comes to tattooing, from the appreciation of art and design, continually improving and mastering a skill, working with people, using their hard earned skill in a professional setting, autonomy, building relationship with clients and making people happy etc... Saying that they're somehow less passionate or hacks is simply ridiculous. And this denigration of people with different backgrounds such as fine arts and other by classifying them as failures in their field for wanting to do tattoos as if though there can't be any possible reason why they might want to do that is so primitive and tribal. Pure example of creating separation between "us" and "them" as a way of group dismissal without the need to evaluate individuals. Childish and cowardly.

    I agree with u, but I have a friend who had a passion for drawing , she did all kinda type of art and one day someone recommended her to be a tattoo artist. She knew nothing about tattooing so she decided to tattoo on her self, she doesn't have a sleeve or anything but she did alot experiment on her legs. It was painfull and hard tattooing your self and she end up working as apprentice but she haven't gotten any other tattoo except for tge ones she did on her legs. Now my question is, would my friend be considered qualified to be a tattoo artist ? She not one to get a sleeve or anything but she did switched work so ahe can have a better job where she can make money doing what she love drawing + now tattooing. Mindn u as an apprentice, she made shit but she suck it up and really wanted the job.

      Absolutely. In fact, this is another thing that I personally believe all artists should start with- their first piece should be on themselves. I mean, the more tattoos your artist has, the more proof of their passion and commitment to the culture and craft, but some are always better then none.

    Mine might be an unpopular opinion and maybe a little too critical, but even tho you clearly said big truths on getting into the tattoo industry, I didn't like the way you spoke at all. The way you explained made me think you are a old-minded person with a closed view on certain things. I totally understand it might be hard seeing all those wanting to become tattoo artists just because and not fully committing to the cause, but if it were me, coming at yours to ask for an apprentship and hearing you talk like that, i would exit shop immediately. I'm sorry, some of the things you say is absolutely correct, but I could never be able to work with you because at first glance I couldn't like you a single bit. Not knowing you I cannot judge who you are, but I'm not gonna support bossing around like that, even tho I might be a total novice.

      Hahaha, fuck... no wrong answers. You would be absolutely correct. And more power to you. Its a two-way street. Dont jump into bed with the first potential mentor who says yes. You gotta click with said mentor. Your assessment of my personality is spot on-- Im abrasive, kinda know-it-all, and no-compromise. Thats ok for some, not ok for others, and it would be disastrous for you to try to work or learn under that kind of scenario. Thats why I made the 'what to look for in your artist' clip, and it applies to potential mentors too. Trust your gut, and dont put up with crusty old gatekeeping fucks, haha :) One day I might need to remake these clips, 'cause maaaan oh maaaaan has the game changed so hard so fast. Some things stay the same (albeit with changed clothes) and others are just totally different.

    On the topic of „cultural appropriation“: In my opinion, when you - as you recommended - find someone with knowledge of and respect for something, it is not cultural appropriation, it’s cultural appreciation. Sadly there are many who don’t get that. And as someone who tries to look for cultural appreciation wherever I go (music-blends, traditions, …) I am really happy to see you putting such an emphasis on it as well!

    I've just found your Chanel dude .. even giving advice on how to keep up the stamina to sit a day session, I've learned by being tattooed by someone who dry wipes and or with a lot of pressure, further traumatised my skin and reduces my tolerance to sit longer so I'm super aware of doing it to others. My body is full of old injuries and I have shitty spine (as we all do) but it helps to be aware of clients injuries so you can position them without agrivating a shoulder, hip or so on. Having insight as to how their life style may effect their healing and being able to give advice accordingly... all the things. I was a very heavily tattooed nurse before I started tattooing. I think both have helped. I really hope you continue to make videos. I couldn't help but chuckle away, I'm sure you've made some ❄️ s cry with your honesty. Thank you for your effort and insight!
